Harry Redknapp is convinced Luka Modric and Robbie Keane will bring the best out of each other.
The
pair played together for the first time in the derby draw against
Arsenal last weekend following Robbie's return from Liverpool.
It
looks a match made in football heaven. "I think they will enjoy playing
together," said Harry. "They are both fantastic footballers, great
competitors and you can see them straight on the same wavelength in
training.
"People look at Luka and think he is a marvellous
little footballer, but you saw him in central midfield in the Stoke
game - against a strong physical team - and he ran the show.
"Top
players like Robbie and Luka will feed off each other," added Harry,
before speaking more about Luka after the Croatian midfielder's
performance against the Gunners.
"He's a fantastic little footballer, an amazing talent.
"I
played him on the left against Arsenal to balance up the team, he can
do that job and we worked hard in training getting him coming off the
line, picking balls up in the little holes between the back four and
their midfield and he did that well.
"When he gets on the ball he's a fantastic player."
