Harry Redknapp sees no reason why new captain Robbie Keane and Jermain Defoe cannot form a lethal partnership for Tottenham second time around.

Probably because it didn’t work last time mate.

The little and slightly smaller pair have had plenty of opportunities to hit it off as a pairing but it just didn’t happen.

A lot will depend on the we play. We’ve been going from back to front more directly of late. This clearly won’t suit them as anyone who saw us when Robbo used to lump the length of the pitch over the we ones heads.

But Harry hasn’t said anything about the way we’re going to play being the reason Keane and Defoe will be dangerous together. Instead it comes down to, "I wanted them both, I know them and they are good players - good players can always play together."

We wish it was true but if that was the case England would function perfectly with fat Frank and badge kisser Gerrard in midfield. We all know how that one has gone.

Hopefully Redknapp is the man to make it work.

I for one am keeping them crossed.

He is little though.
