Tottenham news: This season has NOT been a disaster for Spurs, insists Harry Redknapp on talkSPORT
Harry Redknapp has insisted it has NOT been a disastrous season for Tottenham, despite the likelihood they will finish the campaign without a trophy again.Its that time of the season when Spurs fans must be overcome with a strong sense of dj vu, after watching their side slide out of the running for another trophy.3

Spurs have felt short in the Premier League title race again

Tottenhams distant Premier League title hopes have been completely erased this week with back-to-back defeats to Burnley and Chelsea, which leave them nine points below leaders Liverpool.Their February slump is a copycat of the dip they suffered in January, when they crashed out of both the FA Cup and Carabao Cup in successive games.But, with Spurs just one game away from a place in the Champions League quarter-finals, former boss Redknapp claims its not all doom and gloom for the north London side.He told the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast: With the two bad results for them this week, their hopes of winning the Premier League have gone now.But theyve still got the Champions League, theyve got a big game coming up next week in Dortmund.3

Tottenham are in control against Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League after a 3-0 first leg win

“They should put that to bed and then theyre in the least eight of the Champions League!So its a disappointment that theyve faded away in the chase for the title, but theres still a lot to play for.Whatever happens, its not been a disastrous season for Tottenham. If they finish third in the league its not the worst thing in the world.Obviously people want to see a cup and want to see Tottenham win something, but when you look at Manchester Citys squad its scary, theyve got so many great players to come in all the time.So Spurs are still short of just winning it but, listen, theyve had a good season, theyve played some good stuff and if they get through this game with Dortmund theyre in the last eight of the Champions League. People always want a bit more dont they.Mauricio Pochettinos men bounced back from that double cup exit against Chelsea and Crystal Palace to win four straight games, and fans will be hoping for another strong reaction this time ahead of Saturdays north London derby against Arsenal.Its a must-win game for Tottenhams top-four plans with the Gunners now only four points behind, and Manchester United just one point further back, after this weeks results.3

Arsenal were at their brilliant best on Wednesday night as they smashed Bournemouth 5-1

Making the top four is not going to be easy this season, Redknapp added.Chelsea, Manchester United and Arsenal have all suddenly got closer to Tottenham and its going to be tight up there.Tottenham need a result at the weekend, for sure. They certainly wouldnt want another defeat, especially against Arsenal.In their last two games Tottenham havent played well, so theyve got to be up for the Arsenal game on Saturday.
