Tottenham Hotspur manager Harry Redknapp has insisted that he never doubted that his side could turn around their recent poor form.

The White Hart Lane club had gone five Premier League games without a win before Sunday's 3-1 win at home against Swansea City.

"I never felt we played badly, we were just unlucky," said Redknapp. "We're playing well and we had a good week with Chelsea, Bolton and Swansea.

"I've been at clubs where the players look like their confidence has gone, but this lot have been fantastic, knocking the ball around in training and I just felt we were playing well and needed a little luck. I never had any doubts."

Spurs continue their hunt for a Champions League place on Saturday when they travel to Sunderland.
