Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp says he's happy for Robbie Keane to play in midfield as cover for Luka Modric.
"Robbie can play there," Redknapp said.
"He's a fantastic front man but he can play in that position. He puts a shift in, he's clever, he comes off the line and can do the job in that position.
"Niko Kranjcar can play there and he won't be happy on the bench but that's football, that's life. We have to turn this into a club where it's not easy to get into the first team.
"Look around the league and see how many clubs there are where people are sitting on the bench who are top class - there are top players doing that at Manchester United, for example. That's what successful teams do, they have competition everywhere."
