Tottenham boss Andre Villas-Boas is happy for Harry Redknapp over his move to QPR.

The Portuguese could be forgiven for bemoaning Redknapp's return to top-flight football, but the Spurs boss is happy to see his predecessor back in the game - and he has no doubt the west London club will survive under his leadership.

"It's good for the game that he is back," Villas-Boas said.

"He's a manager with more experience in the Premier League, a respected manager who is used to making impossible things turn possible.

"It is the kind of challenge that makes him even more motivated.

"I would put on a bet if I could that they would save themselves."
