Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp believes the teams chasing a place in the Champions League can also finish in the top three of the Barclays Premier League this season.
Spurs can get within four points of third-placed Arsenal if they defeat Aston Villa tonight at White Hart Lane, while Martin O’Neill’s side are only two points behind Redknapp’s men. “It is going to be tight,” Redknapp said. “Someone could get third spot. Manchester City could. We could. Liverpool could. Anyone is capable with a run. Arsenal are not 100 per cent sure to be there if they get beaten by Chelsea and other teams pick up good results. Arsenal are favourites but it is not impossible for anyone to catch them, there could be a five or six-point turnaround. We thought that Chelsea were running away with it, but now look at it. Wide open again.”
