Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp has heaped praise on the attitude of Robbie Keane.

Keane has only once been granted a full 90 minutes of action in Tottenham's last 13 games and has been an unused substitute in four of those.

But Redknapp was full of praise for his skipper's attitude and is delighted he does not have the problems of some of his managerial counterparts when it comes to keeping the majority of his squad happy.

Redknapp said: "I was talking to a manager yesterday in the Premier and he said he's got half a dozen s***s at his club who just make it a nightmare to go to work. Robbie looks bright in training. He's got a great attitude. On Monday he was fantastic.

"When he's not in the team he's still in the dressing room geeing everybody up. He doesn't sulk when he's not playing and his attitude... if everyone had an attitude like him, the game would be a better game and your job would be much easier."
