Hero Ardiles believes balancing Modric and Keane is key to Spurs' hopes
Tottenham Hotspur legend Ossie Ardiles believes the key to Spurs' success this season rests with how manager Harry Redknapp accommodates Robbie Keane and Luka Modric.
Both started in the 2-1 win over Liverpool, Keane alongside Jermain Defoe with Modric just behind the twin strikers.
Ardiles said: 'It was a great game, one I would have loved to have played in.
Final say: Spurs legend Ardiles thinks Modric is key
'It could set the tone for the season but it is a big dilemma for Harry how to use the two of them.'
Redknapp seems unlikely to select Defoe, Keane, Crouch and Modric so one will almost certainly be left out.
Addiles hinted that could be Keane if Redknapp reverts to his little-and-large strike force of Defoe and Crouch.
The 1978 World Cup winner said: 'Keane is a wonderful character to have around but is not really an out and out striker.
'Modric is crucial for Spurs' chances this year and he is most effective just behind the strikers.'
