Chelsea beat Tottenham 2-0 on Thursday night to move up to eighth in the Premier League, just three points behind Manchester United in sixth.
The Blues headed into the game at Stamford Bridge with 14 players missing through injury, but the players who were available put in a brilliant performance.
Trevoh Chalobah gave the Blues the lead as he headed home Conor Gallagher’s free kick, with Nicolas Jackson heading in Chelsea’s second after Cole Palmer’s brilliant free kick struck the crossbar.
The win means Mauricio Pochettino has now done the double over Spurs this season, and has put a dent in their hopes of finishing in the top four, with Ange Postecoglou’s side seven points behind Aston Villa, with a game in hand.
Speaking after the game Redknapp was really impressed with how Chelsea performed, stating the players stepped up and wanted it more than Spurs did.
