Aaron Lennon explains what he is desperate for the next Tottenham manager to do

Aaron Lennon told football.london that he wants Tottenham to let their attacking stars off their leash as they search for their next manager.

The 36-year-old retired winger knows a thing or two about being part of a fearsome attack at Spurs having played for the club for a decade. He showed he is still just as fit and sharp on Sunday as he played alongside a whole host of former Spurs stars such as Jermain Defoe, Robbie Keane, Ledley King, Danny Rose, Michael Dawson, Edgar Davids and Sandro in a remarkable charity match for Tottenham's popular kit man Steve Dukes in memory of his father and in aid of Essex & Herts Air Ambulance at Bishop's Stortford FC in front of 3,500 fans.

Managed by Harry Redknapp, the Spurs side won 7-1 against a team containing celebrities and ex-players with Defoe scoring a hat-trick, Keane netting twice, Sandro once and Keane's young son coming on late in the game to round off the scoring.
