David Pleat: 'Tim Sherwood gives Tottenham Hotspur some stability'

By , Reporter
Former Tottenham Hotspur manager David Pleat says that new head coach Tim Sherwood will provide Spurs with some stability.

Former Tottenham Hotspur manager David Pleat has said that new Spurs head coach Tim Sherwood will provide the club with some stability.

Sherwood has been handed a full-time contract at White Hart Lane, which runs until the end of the 2014-15 season.

"Opportunities come in different ways, but initially he gives Tottenham some stability and he has some credentials, he is ambitious and a leader," said Pleat, according to BBC Sport.

"He is hard-working, he has developed, and helped, along with Les Ferdinand and Chris Ramsey, develop some good players that have emerged this season.

"Every manager is a risk, there are no messiahs out there. I think Tim will do OK. He will get respect, he understands the game and importantly can communicate."

Tottenham currently sit in seventh position in the Premier League on 30 points.
