Tottenham Hotspur manager Harry Redknapp has said that his side were fantastic during Sunday's 2-0 win over struggling Blackburn Rovers at White Hart Lane.

Rafael van der Vaart's first-half goal and a stunning Kyle Walker free kick have lifted Spurs into fourth place as they chase Champions League football.

"I thought we played ever so well," Redknapp told BBC Sport. "The movement in the first half was fantastic.

"I turned to the bench and said 'surely [Walker] is not going to shoot from there'. He stuck it in the top corner and they were all laughing."

Redknapp has also claimed that the race for the Champions League places is not going to get any easier.

"[The battle for fourth] is going to be close and tight," he added. "You can't see Chelsea losing, they are playing great. Newcastle were going great until yesterday. There are no easy games. We have got two tough away games at Bolton and Villa and then Fulham at home. It's going to be interesting."

Spurs next travel to Bolton Wanderers on Wednesday night.
