Former Premier League manager Harry Redknapp’s collaboration with BetVictor brings us yet another fascinating breakdown of the week’s top performers. His keen eye for talent and strategy is what sets his Team of the Week apart, providing a unique insight into the makings of football brilliance.
Between the Posts: Kelleher’s Commanding Presence
In a compelling nod to the goalkeeping prowess on display, Redknapp has spotlighted Caoimhin Kelleher’s sterling performance against Brentford. “He was outstanding,” Redknapp notes, acknowledging Kelleher’s rising stock at Liverpool.

Defending Like Legends: Disasi’s Authoritative Display

He has to be one of the best midfielders in the world at the moment,” says Redknapp, encapsulating the Norwegian’s influential role in Arsenal’s dynamism.
Attacking Flair: Watkins and Højlund Lead the Line
Ollie Watkins’s technical finesse and Rasmus Højlund’s youthful exuberance have not escaped Redknapp’s attention. Watkins, with “18 in all competitions,” and Højlund, lauded as the “youngest player to score in six consecutive Premier League games,” are both hailed for their match-winning impacts. Redknapp’s commendations here highlight not just their current form but their integral roles in their teams’ campaigns.

From Bukayo Saka’s goal-scoring spree to João Gomes’s cool finishes, Redknapp has cast a spotlight on the week’s standout talents. “The lad’s on fire,” he says of Saka, capturing the essence of a player at the peak of his powers. The inclusion of players like Simon Adingra and Danilo underscores the depth and diversity of skill that defines Redknapp’s weekly picks.
