Spurs boss Redknapp: We missed Modric against Man Utd

Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp says they missed Luka Modric in their defeat to Manchester United.

"I'm not saying we would have won the game if Modric had played but he is fantastic for us," admitted Redknapp. "We do miss him.

"We finished the Birmingham game with Robbie on the left, but I wouldn't see myself going to Chelsea and playing that way again."

Spurs forward Peter Crouch said: "It's difficult without Luka. He's such a clever player and can keep the ball so well, so of course we're going to miss him, but we've still got great quality."
