Harry Redknapp doesn’t think Tottenham need to sign players in January
Former Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp has backed the quality of stars currently at the club. Spurs have struggled this season for consistency and have been at the end of some poor results.
Mauricio Pochettino did see a lot of fresh faces coming in the summer, but some of the players are yet to click.
Giovani Lo Celso and Ryan Sessegnon have spent a lot of time injured while Jack Clarke is not getting games at Leeds United.
Football.london reports that there have been discussions to make January signings, however, Redknapp doesn’t believe Spurs need fresh faces. The former manager was speaking to Sky Sports and said there was enough quality in the team (h/t Football.london):
“Where [would you make signings]? When I look at the team, they are full of good players everywhere.
“It is the same group of players – but one or two are not playing as well.”
Redknapp highlighted Dele Alli’s case and believed he just needs to come back to form after a few struggles this season. The former manager also backed the team to get something from the weekend’s game at Anfield:
“I think they have got the players. They are going through a bad spell but they will come out of that.
“It wouldn’t surprise me if it started on Sunday [against Liverpool at Anfield].”
A tough situation for Spurs
Redknapp is right in suggesting that we have quality players at hand, however, things haven’t been great for us this season.
The problem is related to transfers as several players are free agents at the end of the season, and replacing them won’t be easy. Some stars were trying to leave in the summer but couldn’t seal an exit, and they might not be in the right frame of mind.

The win against Red Star in midweek would have given us a confidence boost but facing Liverpool at Anfield is a real test to see if we have turned things around.
