Redknapp relishes Milan return trip
Tottenham Hotspur FC manager Harry Redknapp said being paired against AC Milan is "a great challenge for us" as the English side prepare to return to San Siro in the round of 16.
Having seen his side make such an impression against UEFA Champions League holders FC Internazionale Milano in the group stage, Tottenham Hostpur FC manager Harry Redknapp is relishing the chance to take on the Nerazzurri's rivals AC Milan after being drawn against the seven-time champions in the round of 16.
Tottenham had two thrilling contests with Inter this autumn, a 4-3 defeat at San Siro followed by a 3-1 win at White Hart Lane, and Redknapp anticipates two more exciting nights against the Rossoneri. "They have won the trophy seven times, which is a fantastic record," he said. ""They're leading their league, are the top team in Italy and it's a fantastic game to look forward to. It's a great challenge for us".
"They have some real quality, fantastic players, but it's an exciting game," added Redknapp, whose side are away in the first leg on 15 February before the return in London on 9 March. "I said before that I wouldn't mind playing them because you want to play the top teams in the world. They're the games people want to see and it's a great chance to bring them to White Hart Lane for a great game."
The tie will rekindle fond memories for Spurs, who ran out 3-2 aggregate winners in the clubs' only previous meeting in the 1971/72 UEFA Cup semi-finals en route to lifting the trophy. Tottenham finished top of Group A in this, their first UEFA Champions League campaign and will not be overawed by a return to San Siro.
Gareth Bale scored a sensational second-half hat-trick as ten-man Spurs battled back from 4-0 down on Matchday 3, and though the London side came up short, the confidence gained that night will hold them in good stead against Massimiliano Allegri's team.
The Rossoneri coach has certainly been impressed with what he has seen. "Tottenham are a good team and we saw it in the group stage against Inter, especially when they won at home," he said. "However, it could have been much worse for us considering the teams we could have faced.
"Still, we know we will need two great games to qualify because all the teams in the round of 16 are strong. Tottenham did particularly well in the group stage and can be very dangerous especially at home."
Matches against English teams in the competition elicit mixed emotions for Milan, who avenged their haunting 2005 UEFA Champions League final defeat by Liverpool FC with victory over the Reds two years later.
They also won the 2003 final on English soil against Juventus at Old Trafford. Last season they crashed out at this stage 7-2 on aggregate against Manchester United FC, but Milan director Umberto Gandini is looking forward to a return to England.
"It's great to go and play in England," he said. "There is a special atmosphere at White Hart Lane like there is at all grounds in England. They're very serious opponents who are well coached by Redknapp. Everybody is asking me about Gareth Bale, but it's not only Bale; there's Van der Vaart, Crouch and many others. They're an attacking team and it will be a great game."

Redknapp hails 'miracle' man Holloway
Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp believes no-one in football, including Jose Mourinho, could have done a better managerial job at Blackpool than Ian Holloway.
Redknapp takes his Spurs side to the seaside on Sunday on a wave of excitement after drawing seven-times winners AC Milan in the last 16 of the Champions League. Yet, while Redknapp admitted it was "a fantastic game to look forward to'', he was more concerned about not being outwitted by a man in Holloway who is his favourite for manager of the year. Redknapp reckons it is vital for English football that Holloway shows little clubs can still prosper in the Premier League.
He said: "He's done an incredible job. For me there are two candidates for manager of the year - him and Roberto di Matteo at West Brom. Whoever does best in the rest of the season will get my vote. What he (Holloway) has done there has been a miracle. He's full of enthusiasm, bubbly, a great character. He's got his team playing fantastic football and getting great results.
"You couldn't have found a manager in the world who could have done as well as Holloway at Blackpool. Mourinho couldn't have done a better job. No-one saw them having a chance to survive this year. Everybody said they would be lucky if they got 20-odd points. They have gone away from home to places like Liverpool and turned teams over, gone to Stoke last week and got a win. They have a go, they attack, get after teams.''
It is exactly how Redknapp sees Tottenham approaching their match against Milan.
He said: "They are leading the league in Italy and it's a fantastic game to look forward to - a great challenge for us because they have some fantastic players. You want to play the top teams and it is a great chance to bring them to White Hart Lane.''
Redknapp is boosted this weekend with the return of Holland midfielder Rafael van der Vaart, who has trained all week after recovering ahead of schedule from his hamstring injury.
There was good news too for Wilson Palacios, who has recovered from an ankle injury, while defender Younes Kaboul is also fit.
Ledley King hopes to avoid an operation to his groin injury and has trained this week but is not fit enough for Sunday, although he has been making the headlines with tabloid pictures of him apparently asleep at a Tottenham Christmas get-together on Wednesday. Redknapp, who banned a formal Tottenham Christmas party, admitted he would be having a word with King but was unconcerned about the pictures.
"It's only Ledley who looks like he's fallen asleep again,'' said Redknapp. "They (the players) came to me and said 'We want to go out for dinner. Rafa (Van der Vaart) and all the new lads have asked 'can we go out?'. I said I didn't want any aggravation, behave yourselves. Ledley said 'Yeah, it won't be a problem' and apparently no-one caused a problem. You can always get pictures of people with their eyes shut. When you've got your eyes shut it looks as if you've been drinking. I've had no reports that there was any misbehaviour. They'll do an extra bit of running to get it out of them.''
Redknapp, who denied reports that he had any interest in bringing David Beckham to White Hart Lane, also reiterated his belief that his team can win the Premier League this season.
He said: "It's wide open. We have got a chance. We played Chelsea last week and there was nothing between the teams. The teams were evenly matched. We've been to Arsenal and won. There's no reason we can't be in there in the mix. I'm not saying we are going to win it but it is not impossible. We have a chance, the same as five or six other teams. We're on a good run. When we have got everybody fit we feel we have a chance with everybody.''
Redknapp maintained he was "not desperate'' to add to his squad in the January transfer window but revealed midfielder Jamie O'Hara, who has been recovering from a back injury, may be allowed to go out on loan.
Defender William Gallas, meanwhile, is set to return next week from his hamstring injury while there was also some good news on long-term injury victim Jonathan Woodgate.
"He trained outside this week,'' revealed Redknapp. "For the first time in 18 months there is some light at the end of the tunnel.''
