Tim Sherwood, who spent four years at Tottenham Hotspur between the years 0f 1999 and 2003, is to return to the club as a part of the coaching staff. Sherwood will take up a part-time position and is the latest to have been brought into the club by new Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp.

Redknapp is making some serious changes to the Spurs backroom staff at the moment; the club is currently bottom of the league and he’s therefore doing all he can in order to turn it all around for Tottenham. Tottenham should really be a side in the top 6, it’s just not happening for the club right now though and for fans of the team; 20th position just isn’t good enough.

Sherwood made nearly 100 appearances for Spurs during his time at White Hart Lane; he was loyal and incredibly devoted to the club, and this is just the kind of person that Harry Redknapp wants on his coaching staff. Confidence is currently shot at Tottenham, Redknapp is therefore bringing in Tottenham players of the past in order to restore some pride and fight to his struggling side.

A 4-4 fight back draw sealed away at Arsenal’s Emirates Stadium on Wednesday 29th October could be the start of the Tottenham escape. Tottenham found themselves 4-2 down after Van Persie scored for Arsenal in the 68th minute; a late double with goals from Jermaine Jenas and Aaron Lennon rescued a point for Tottenham however, Harry Redknapp’s astute substitutions having paid off and really sparked the side into action. Tottenham showed a lot of passion in that game, something that has been lacking in the Tottenham side in recent weeks. It looks as though Redknapp’s changes are starting to take effect already, and with former players currently ranking highly on Harry Redknapp’s coaching staff wish list; Tim Sherwood is now the latest to have come back to White Hart Lane and there are likely to be many more returning yet.
