Redknapp's £40million spree
Harry Redknapp will be given a £40m transfer kitty for Spurs’
assault on the Champions League – with Michael Carrick topping his
wanted list. The Tottenham manager is aiming to boost his squad so
they are up to scratch in the European Cup. And at the same time
the Spurs board plan to offer new deals to Redknapp and star men
Ledley King and Gareth Bale. Tottenham’s top transfer targets will
include the former White Hart Lane midfielder Michael Carrick, who
is dropping down the pecking order at Manchester United.

Edwin van der Sar tells The Daily
Mirror that he is shocked to still be playing at the top
level. “I thought that I would be at United for two years and then
maybe go and do something else. Instead I am steadily trying to
reach my testimonial," says the Dutchman.
Rio Ferdinand has declared himself fit and
ready for United's final day clash with Stoke City, plus England's
World Cup campaign, telling The Mirror: "I just want to
get out there, play some football and be successful."
Finally, Wigan manager Roberto Martinez has
bullishly declared his players 'arrogant' enough to do United a
last-day favour at Stamford Bridge. “I know everyone expects
Chelsea to win - and rightly so,” says the Spaniard. “But we have
nothing to lose. We have a very, very young squad, but they are
arrogant in the right manner and on the day we can beat
anyone."
