Harry Redknapp has named four Tottenham Hotspur players who can make the difference in Wednesday’s big Champions League clash.
The Spurs cult hero told Tuttomercatoweb that Harry Kane, Son Heung-min, Richarlison and Dejan Kulusevski are all “all capable of overturning” the tie against AC Milan.
Spurs trail AC Milan 1-0 from the first leg at the San Siro and have it all to do at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Nonetheless, Redknapp reckons that the Lilywhites can overturn the deficit in front of their own fans.
TMW asked the former Tottenham boss what he expected from Wednesday night’s match in North London.
Redknapp says he’s “sure they’ll turn the tables in the second leg” with help from the home crowd.
When asked whether he had few doubts about who’ll progress, Redknapp replied: “When you have players of the level of Harry Kane, Son, Richarlison and Kulusevski… all capable of overturning similar situations.”
Can Spurs stars rise to the occasion?
Tottenham really looked set for an exciting season back in the summer.
Antonio Conte was heading into his first full season at N17 and he had made several great signings.
However, Spurs’ campaign has been mixed to say the least.
They’re still fourth in the table, but they have several teams snapping at their heels with games in hand.
In addition, Tottenham are out of the FA Cup following a shock exit at the hands of Sheffield United.
Now, the pressure is on, with the Champions League their last realistic chance of silverware this term.
It’ll be a tough ask, but with Antonio Conte back in the dugout and considerable quality in their ranks, it can be done.
The match between Tottenham and Milan gets under way at 8pm GMT.
