Harry Redknapp: I'm not planning for the future at Spurs - because I probably won't be here!
Harry Redknapp had admitted he is not concentrating on planning long-term for Tottenham Hotspur because he is unlikely to be at White Hart Lane for too many years.
Redknapp has generally gone for experienced players such as Peter Crouch, Robbie Keane and Jermain Defoe.
Though he recently signed Sheffield United's promising duo Kyle Naighton and Kyle Walker, Redknapp is more concerned about the present than the future.
He said: 'We just took two kids from Sheffield United and we want young players but really, it's all about your first team. You need experience and people who are going to win football matches.
'It's no good saying 'we're going to be a good team in four years', because I probably won't be here. That's not how the game works, you need a team.
'We're looking for young talent and young players who will play here for years to come. But that can mean bringing in an experienced player to pull all of them together.
'There's no problem with the chairman [Daniel Levy] on that front. He brought me here as the manager and he knows I've got a bit of an idea what I'm doing so he backs me.'
