The 62-year-old has been charged with two counts of cheating the public revenue, with the move coming at the end of an exhaustive 26-month police and tax inquiry into alleged corruption in English football. Redknapp, who has been adamant he has done nothing wrong, has previously described the situation as "farcical" and insists he has not been distracted from preparing for two weeks when his Champions League-chasing side face Hull, Liverpool, Fulham and Birmingham in the Premier League and Leeds in the FA Cup. "I've got an awful lot that I'd love to say, believe you me, and when the time is right I will say it but I've been advised not to discuss the matter," Redknapp said. "We've got to concentrate on the Hull game. It's a big game and that is the only thing that is on my mind. It's got no effect on me to be perfectly honest. I'm ready for the game and looking forward to it. That is about where we are at. "I'm fine. I don't know how it started but we're certainly reaching closure. My mind has not been off football anyway. The game is what I live for." With last weekend's trip to Liverpool postponed, Manchester City moved into the top four so the next set of matches will test whether Spurs can keep pace with Roberto Mancini's men. Redknapp has been encouraged by five consecutive clean sheets heading into the clash against Phil Brown's men at White Hart Lane this weekend. "We've got five games coming up in the next 14 days - a really important run," he said. "Four big league games, starting with Hull then up to Liverpool, so we need the whole squad. "Let's hope we can go another five. If we can do that we'll be right in the picture. It's a big couple of weeks for us." First up is Hull - a side that won when they travelled to Spurs last season, which was part of a dreadful start to the season that led to Redknapp replacing Juande Ramos. Tigers boss Brown has been under scrutiny this season, but Redknapp said: "He's done a great job at Hull, if you look at where they were when he went to the club and where they are now. And he's a character, he's a good personality. "He was a great coach at Bolton and part of a good team with Sam Allardyce with good results. As a manager he has done a fantastic job with what he has had." Then, on Wednesday, Spurs travel for the rearranged clash at Liverpool, with Rafael Benitez the manager under pressure at this point of the season. Benitez could also be without talismen Steven Gerrard and Fernando Torres. "They are two massive players for them. They will miss them for sure but they have a good squad," Redknapp said. With so many games, Redknapp has ruled out Kyle Naughton returning to Sheffield United on loan. He has also refuted potential bids for Crystal Palace striker Victor Moses or AC Milan midfielder Mathieu Flamini. Internacional midfielder Sandro, however, could be an arrival. "It's a real possibility but I'm not sure where the chairman is in terms of the deal," Redknapp said.
