Former Tottenham midfielder Jamie O'Hara has called on the club to bring in Harry Redknapp and Robbie Keane to rescue their season.
The London club moved to sack Jose Mourinho today, leaving them without a manager ahead of this weekend’s Carabao Cup final against Manchester City.
Ex-Spurs man Ryan Mason is expected to take charge of the first team at Wembley.
But O'Hara believes that the club should look to steady the ship by bringing in ex-Spurs boss Redknapp and their former striker Keane.
“Ryan Mason is a great lad and a top footballer but he’s not ready to take over Spurs, let’s be serious about that,” O’Hara said on Sky Sports News.
“From now until the end of the season, I would get Harry Redknapp in. I’d get Robbie Keane in. I’d get them two in tomorrow, get them into the cup final – two big people who have already been at Spurs.
“I know Robbie Keane has got a pro licence, he’s worked, he’s done it, he’s already been involved in coaching. He’d be massive for Spurs, in my opinion.”
Since hanging up his boots in 2018, Keane has had spells as assistant manager for both the Republic of Ireland and Middlesbrough.
And O'Hara believes that Keane, who had two successful playing spells at Spurs, would be a great influence on the team.
"You can’t make a knee-jerk decision here because you did that last time with getting rid of Poch [Mauricio Pochettino] and the next day, Jose comes in,
“If they do that again, who’s it going to be? Who’s going to take over Spurs at this moment in time?
“You look at top managers like maybe [Julian] Nagelsmann or [Jurgen] Klinsmann, someone like that.
“For me, I’d keep it simple. Get in someone who knows the club and knows the players, who will get the boys playing. Harry Redknapp, Robbie Keane for me would be the perfect scenario.”
