Tottenham boss Redknapp insists no failure if they miss top four

Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp insists they're no failure if they do not finish in the top four.

Spurs risk slipping out of the Champions League places this weekend.

"I don't think it's a failed squad whatever we do," he said.

"We're not entitled to be above Chelsea. Look at their bench the other night. They had people like (Fernando) Torres and (Daniel) Sturridge and other top players.

"I wouldn't say we've got a stronger squad than Chelsea - no way - or a stronger squad than Liverpool come to that.

"If we finish fourth we'll be delighted and if we finish third it will be even better. I can't fault the effort of the players this year whatever they do."
