Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp says his best signing wasn't a player.

Redknapp nominates Jim Smith, his old No2 at Portsmouth, as his best ever choice.

He told the Daily Mail: "The best signing I ever made was Jim Smith, and we had a great time together at Portsmouth. I remember Chris Kamara coming down with a Sky camera crew and he's outside our office at Fratton Park at about 10 past two, telling the camera how this is the inner sanctum.

"This is where Harry and Jim are masterminding Portsmouth's success.

"And then he knocks, comes in the room and there's me and Jim reading the Racing Post."
