Tottenham Hotspur boss Harry Redknapp is refusing to take the credit for the club's remarkable turnaround during his brief spell at the helm.

Spurs' 2-1 victory at Manchester City on Sunday stretched Redknapp's unbeaten run to five games since he replaced Juande Ramos in the hot-seat last month.

Two more goals from a rejuvenated Darren Bent helped the north London club to a first away win of the season and moved them up to 16th place in the Premier League table.

"I am not sure what I have done," claimed the former Portsmouth manager.

"I have just got to know them, talked to them and encouraged them. I have told them to be confident.

"We have lots of players who can play and I have tried to make the training ground a brighter place.

"You should see our dressing room after this game - it is as if we have won the cup.

"A few weeks ago we had only two points and that was scary. We could have been cast adrift.

"But the whole league is so close apart from the top four, who are clearly the best teams."
