Harry Redknapp has called on Tottenham goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes to keep his chin up after yet another high profile blunder against Fulham in the Premiership on Saturday.

  • "Fulham just blocked up the goalmouth on every corner and made it difficult for him,'' admitted Redknapp. "You could see they were doing that on every corner. I would imagine he will get targeted.



    "He has got to deal with that. But if you look at his record in Holland, he was a world class goalkeeper. He took the bang on the mouth on Wednesday night against Liverpool which certainly didn't help him any, but that is no excuse.



    "He made a bad mistake for the goal but he made some saves after that. I have got to stay with him. Their first goal certainly didn't help anyone but we've just got to keep believing in him because that's it, he is our goalkeeper. It is no good caning him - I've got nobody else. It is hard. I've told him to keep his chin up.''
