Teddy Sheringham believes that Harry Redknapp would simplify things if he were hired as the interim manager at Tottenham.

Tottenham are considering Igor Tudor’s future already, as he has overseen three defeats in as many games in charge.

Vinai Venkatesham and Johan Lange hired the Croatian to bring about a new manager bounce and get them out of relegation trouble, but he has failed to do that.

What are you doing with Igor Tudor if you are the Tottenham board after that Palace loss? 😫

Teddy Sheringham backs Harry Redknapp to succeed at Spurs

Sheringham has stated that Redknapp can come in and get the Tottenham side ticking by getting them to stick to basics.

He believes the former Spurs manager will play the players in the right positions and get the best out of them.

Sheringham believes that Redknapp always gets his teams to play the right way and will give the players the confidence to thrive.

He told talkSPORT: “I would put Harry Redknapp in there and just say, Harry, just get our team ticking, you know, get them in their right positions and just tell them to go out and play the way he does.

“He always gets his team ticking. He always gets his team playing in the right manner, playing football the right manner with confidence.”

Would Harry Redknapp have enough in him to save Tottenham? 😬

He's done it before, could he do it again?

What Tottenham will get if they hire Redknapp

Redknapp is loved at Tottenham for his four years as manager, but he also came through their academy before his professional career.

Fans will remember his time as Lilywhites manager, as he took over a side that was bottom of the league with two points from eight games, and guided them to eighth.

What Spurs need is someone who can deliver instant results, and that would mean sticking to the basics rather than complicating things.

Redknapp is capable of doing that, and while it may not be the most attractive brand of football, it will be effective.

He also has a better chance to bring that bounce effect that Igor Tudor failed to bring about, as he knows the club and the league.

There is also a possibility that Redknapp turns to Jermain Defoe and Tim Sherwood to come on until the end of the season and become a star-studded coaching staff to keep Spurs in the top flight.
