Tottenham boss Redknapp warns Arsenal not to relax

Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp admits their Champions League hopes are on the line after their draw with Stoke City.

Tottenham slipped out of the Premier League top three, which earn automatic Champions League qualification places, for the first time in almost three months after they could only draw 1-1 with Stoke.

Redknapp said: "We can still finish above Arsenal. Arsenal can think it's all over. It's not all over. There's a long way to go yet.

"There'll be twists and turns. It's all to play for still.

"They're not going to win every game, are they, I don't think."

Redknapp insisted his players had not lost their nerve, having blown what looked set to be a 13-point lead over Arsenal during last month's north London derby.

He said: "We've had hard games. People can look at it as much as they want.

"We've played three games before tonight.

"They weren't exactly nine points you'd been looking at.

"We're all disappointed to have had a blip at this time of the season but we've got to come out of that now, we've got to keep going."
