Harry Redknapp has picked the best XI of players that have played under him and it’s more triffic than you’d imagine.

‘Arry has no room for sentiment as son and all round handsome gentleman Jamie doesn’t get a look-in but nephew Frank Lampard gets the shout to start in the centre of the park alongside Luka Modric.

The perpetual car-window-leaner-outer opted to go for five at the back with Glen Johnson and Stewart Pearce filling the full back slots.

It’s hard to argue about the quality of central defenders at Redknapp’s disposal and he’s handed Rio Ferdinand, Sol Campbell and Ledley King starting places.
