Harry Redknapp slams 'disappointing' Tottenham Hotspur

Former boss Harry Redknapp criticises Tottenham Hotspur for failing to push on in the three years since he left the club.

Harry Redknapp has said that former club Tottenham Hotspur have been a "major disappointment" since he departed the club three years ago.

The 68-year-old guided Spurs to two top-four finishes in his four seasons at the club, while also being crowned as Premier League Manager of the Year for his achievements in 2010.

However, the Englishman has claimed that the North London club have failed to push on under Andre Villas-Boas and now Mauricio Pochettino, by struggling to truly challenge for a Champions League berth.

"Tottenham have been a major disappointment since I left," he told Kicca. "I had two top-four finishes, we finished fourth twice and should have finished higher in all honesty. I thought if we had bought a striker in the last year at Christmas we'd have been very close, I think, to the top.

"We didn't invest in a striker at that time. It's difficult, that top four is difficult. But this year, if you talk Tottenham, it's been a disappointing year for Tottenham. I'm a big fan of the manager, I like him very much but if you look at the team this year it certainly don't excite you.

"They've been carried by three or four of the kids who have done really well. The signings, almost to a man, have been a disaster. All that £120m or whatever they spent from [Gareth] Bale and [Luka] Modric has been pretty much wasted really."

Redknapp left Queens Park Rangers in February with the club down in 19th place in the table.
