Spurs boss wary of Yak threat
Tottenham coach Harry Redknapp has warned his players to focus on the threat posed by Ayegbeni Yakubu. Redknapp was the man who brought Yak to the Premiership to Portsmouth. Yakubu is visiting White Hart Lane with his Everton side this weekend.
Redknapp said: "When I see him I make a fuss over him because he is a great lad. He was fantastic for me and I loved him.
"He came over on trial for a week from Israel and he was unbelievable. We got him on loan straight away and he was fantastic for us.
"After two days we took him but after one day we knew we wanted him. We took him until the end of the year then got him. Then the club [Portsmouth] doubled their money [by selling Yakubu to Middlesbrough]."
