He's more likely to be a substitute at Spurs in my opinion. Spurs has just too many midfielders to content with.
Central pairing is usually Modric and Palacios, with Jenas, Huddlestone, Kranjcar, Sandro and O'Hara (remember him?) as backups. On the left wing there's Bale and probably Van der Vaart too should Harry chose to play 2 out and out forward instead. On the right there's Lennon, Townsend and Bentley was forced out on loan. With so many players to choose from, I highly doubt Harry would disrupt the team by putting Pienaar straight into the starting 11.
Did I mention that Spurs has 5 forwards too? Keane, Pavlyuchenko, Crouch, Defoe and Dos Santos. And 7 Central Defenders? Kaboul, Gallas, King, Bassong, Dawson, Khumalo and Woodgate? Out of which almost half are crocked players (King, Woodgate).
Mancini should learn a thing or 2 from Harry on Team Ego Management.
is redknapp signing him in case chelsea go for modric?

Highly doubt that too because it has been reported at Abramovic is feeling the heat from FIFA's Financial Fair Play rules. He's not willing to shell out Benfica's £25m asking price for David Luiz and I believe Modric would have cost more than that.

chelsea should stop spending. its time they run the club 'normally'. chelsea cant compete with city financially anyway.

financial fair play by FIFA is....goooood :) I like to see a mixture of youth and financial spending in all football. Not just pure buying power to form a first eleven.

if chelsea is cutting to run "normally", I am pretty sure city is more "abnormal" in that sense.
