What's the bet they are missing 'Arry...

Harry winning FA Cup with Pompey last seasonI bet Portsmouth are missing victory man Harry Redknapp after his side Tottenham thrashed Rafael Benitez's Liverpool 4 - 2 last night in the Carling Cup.

Redknapp, 61, since taking over Spurs, and leaving Pompey at Fratton park, where they joyously won the FA Cup last season (pictured), has had a string of wins since he took up the job from Spain's Juande Ramos.

Tottenham are still in the bottom half of the premiership table, but with Redknapp, commentators from last night's game said it wouldn't be long before they sail up the top of the table where they rightly should be.

The former Portsmouth boss joked to the media: "I should get out now — I’ve taken them as far as I can!"

 He added:"The morales great here. They're all enjoying it."

Redknapp took over Spurs last month in a surprising appointment, and told people that he would never have moved from Pompey if he had been offered a job anywhere else.

It took almost 60 minutes before Liverpool really started to play and their goals came from set plays, rather than attacking midfield football. Spurs, right from the off, made Liverpool work for the ball, and had great dynamism in attack - leading to some exquisite clinical finishing.

On Tuesday, Arsenal's young guns destroyed Wigan 3 - 0 dispelling any myth that Arsenal's first and second team squad are struggling. Arsene Wenger told the media he was proud of his young team, and said they possessed quality, energy and team spirit.

The future looks bright...for both...
