Harry Redknapp 'would take fourth place'

Harry Redknapp admits that it will be tough for Tottenham Hotspur to catch third-placed Arsenal.

Tottenham Hotspur boss Harry Redknapp has admitted that he would happily settle for fourth place behind North London rivals Arsenal.

Spurs were dealt a blow in the race for the Champions League spots on Monday after a 2-1 defeat to Norwich City at White Hart Lane left them two points behind Arsenal having played a game more.

Redknapp said: "We have not been in bad form the last few weeks, but today was a setback.

"It is all still to play for though. It is going to be close, but there are still five games to go. It is the team who wants it most.

"We would settle for finishing fourth, Champions League football is the key. It would be lovely to finish above Arsenal, but that is going to be tough now."

Arsenal have the chance to go five points clear of Spurs in third when they travel to Wolverhampton Wanderers on Wednesday.
