Harry Redknapp: Failed to make Tottenham's trip to Anfield on Monday night

Sky Bet

Tottenham midfielder Scott Parker admits the team missed absent boss Harry Redknapp during their trip to Liverpool on Monday night.

Redknapp failed to make the Anfield visit after spending the day at London's Southwark Crown Court, where he has been for the last couple of weeks contesting two charges of cheating the public revenue

Without their manager Spurs relied on a man-of-the-match performance from Parker as they held the Reds to a goalless stalemate - marking a seventh draw for Liverpool in their past nine home league games.

"Harry gives that extra bit of energy. We've missed him the past couple of weeks," Parker told Sky Sports.

Return

"We'll be absolutely delighted when he comes back.

"It was a tough night. When you come to Anfield it's difficult and tonight was no different.

"I thought we were a little but one-paced tonight.

"We've come and got a point, kept a clean sheet and that's most important thing."
