Redknapp hails rampant Tottenham as they put shoddy Man City to the sword

Against Liverpool in the first game of the season we were a bit like that. We came at them and never let off. All the chances were created by us and it was a great performance.[LNB]'Anything is possible this year. I think the champions will come from Chelsea andManchester United, but after that it's up for grabs. It's going to be tight.[LNB]'Consistencywill be the key for us. People over-react to one result, saying: 'Sameold Tottenham, you're going to fall on your face again."[LNB] Pointing in the right direction: Harry Redknapp[LNB]'We've been playing well enough but we just had one bad result against Wolves on Saturday.'[LNB]Redknapp hailed the wizardry of winger Aaron Lennon, whose brilliance rattled veteran left-back Sylvinho and created a host of opportunities for his team-mates.[LNB]Redknapp added: 'We knew that Sylvinho has been a great left-back but when Aaron's on form and gets at people, he's a nightmare. Today he was excellent. On Saturday we couldn't get him into the game.[LNB] Superb: Redknapp praised Aaron Lennon after his performance against Manchester City[LNB]'We have to keep giving him the ball. Give him the ball, that's what I keep telling them to do, give it to him until he's sick of it and if you keep supplying him with the ball he'll keep making chances for you.[LNB]'City are a strong side. They will be bang there at the end of the year and I honestly believe in the next four or five years that they'll win the league because of the backing they've got.'[LNB]City boss Mark Hughes said: 'We have to hold our hands and admit that on the night Tottenham were better than us. Credit to them, they worked incredibly hard and caused us problems. We're not the finished article yet.'[LNB] Tottenham 3 Manchester City 0: It's three and easy for Spurs as Aaron Lennon is too hot for disappointing CityManchester City star Robinho frozen out on big stageTOTTENHAM HOTSPUR FC
