Tottenham Hotspur manager Harry Redknapp is relishing a very tough week ahead as he faces an FA Cup semi-final against Portsmouth, before facing Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United in quick succession. Although the games will likely have a great effect on the success of Spurs this season, the English tactician is excited by the challenge.

"It is going to be a tough week," said the Spurs manager on the league’s official website. "We play Portsmouth in the semi-final on the Sunday, then we have got Arsenal on the Wednesday, then Chelsea on the Saturday. It is not ideal, but they are good games,” he continued. “At this stage of the season, to be in the cup semi-final and a chance of finishing fourth – you could not ask for more than that."

Spurs are currently in the driving seat to qualify for the final Champions League spot and will need to pull out some results in the coming crucial period if they want to stay in their enviable position.
