Dont know where else to put this, but it made me chuckle.
Spurs need PAOK to defeat Rubin Kazan while Spurs need to beat Shamrock by 5 in order to qualify. PAOK is already through and so Redknapp was concerned that they would rest their starting players:
Quote:
With the firepower available to them, there is a chance that Spurs could qualify, but Redknapp is not confident at all.
"I am disappointed now because we are not going to be in the last 32," Redknapp said. "It's very slim - it is very difficult now.
"I wanted to stay in the competition but it wasn't to be. Full credit to the opposition, they worked hard and looked dangerous."
With PAOK having already qualified, they could be forgiven for resting their first team against Rubin in a fortnight's time, but manager Laszlo Boloni assured Redknapp that will not happen.
He said: "I promise to Tottenham, that I will not pick my second team. You know why? Because I don't have a second team!"
