Chelsea have a weaker team than Spurs and aren't good enough to win the league, says Redknapp

Former Tottenham Hotspur manager Harry Redknapp says he feels the North Londoners have a stronger starting eleven than Chelsea, despite the Blues beating Spurs on Saturday evening.

Antonio Conte's team returned to the top of the Premier League by coming from behind to win 2-1, goals from Pedro and Victor Moses cancelling out Christian Eriksen's powerful opener.

Redknapp felt the result could have been different if Spurs manager Mauricio Pochettino had his strongest team available, and thinks they could win their first league title since 1961 if all his players regain fitness.
