Spurs boss Redknapp unsure of beating drop

Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp admits they're battling against relegation after their draw with Sunderland.

Spurs looked to be heading for defeat when skipper Robbie Keane came up with a priceless 89th-minute equaliser to cancel out Kieran Richardson's third-minute strike.

The draw eased both clubs slightly further away from the scrap for survival - they are each now five points clear of the bottom three - and Redknapp is convinced his team's current run of improved form will keep them up.

Asked if either side will be relegated, he said: "I don't know.

"As long as we don't go down, I don't care who goes down. I would be a liar if I sat here and said otherwise.

"But I am confident we will be okay. We have got enough quality in the team.

"We have lost one home game since I came to the club out of about 17 - and that was to Everton 1-0 when we should have banked a draw - so we are in good form."
