10 High-Profile Spurs Bust-Ups

7. Alan Hutton & Harry Redknapp

David Bentley wasn't the only player Harry Redknapp had an altercation with during his time with Spurs, as Alan Hutton fell afoul of the temperamental manager as well. The Scottish right back and the former Spurs boss clashed after the Lilywhites had been thrashed 4-0 by Fulham and knocked out of the FA Cup in January of 2011. Hutton had been singled out for criticism by Redknapp in front of the rest of the Spurs team in the changing room and had retaliated aggressively, arguing that he didn't deserve to be solely blamed for the crushing and humiliating loss. The defender was then called in to see Redknapp in his office the day after and he was given a second, even more aggressive telling off, but he took that one on the chin. It would lead to Hutton's departure, ultimately, as a few months later he had headed permanently to Aston Villa.
