Redknapp lauds Rodgers

Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp was full of praise for Swansea manager Brendan Rodgers following the Barclays Premier League match between the two sides on Sunday.

Redknapp's Spurs side ran out 3-1 winners at White Hart Lane thanks to a strike from Rafael van der Vaart and two Emmanuel Adebayor headers but Swansea played football in the manner which has earned them plaudits all season.

Redknapp said: "I'm a big fan of his. I think he is fantastic. Not just now, young Frank [Lampard] worked with him at Chelsea and spoke so highly of him."
