Switch in tactics but boss won't curb Henri

Saints will sink to the bottom of the Premiership if they lose tonight but a win will take them out of the bottom three on goal difference - so Redknapp will not settle for remaining two points clear of West Brom.

He said: "West Brom is a massive game but we'll be positive and I'll pick a team to win, because it would be a big boost to get out of the bottom three.

"I don't want to give too much away but Jamie (Redknapp) and Nigel Quashie will be back.

"We missed them on Saturday but we won't pack the midfield.

"Henri Camara is raining goals and will definitely play - he's got four goals in two-and-a-half games, so I can't leave him out.

"It's going to be a good atmosphere and we're going to have to stand up and be counted. We have to play as we did against Everton.

"We've got Arsenal and Spurs coming up, so we need to pick up points tonight - that's they key to staying in this league.

"But it won't be easy. West Brom are a good team and capable of getting out of trouble.

"I hope they don't, because there are only four teams in it and that would mean we're in trouble.

"But they spent a lot of money in the summer and Kevin Campbell is dangerous up front, Robert Earnshaw has struck form, Gera's a good player - he's not the captain of Hungary for nothing.

"Greening is also a good player and Bryan Robson will keep going for sure - it's never easy to turn a side round but he's a good lad."

Successive 2-2 draws against Everton and Brentford at St Mary's have robbed Saints of some of the confidence that should have come hand in hand with Camara's goals.

But Redknapp is backing his side to go one better than the 2-2 at West Brom in November - and enjoy the sort of run his Pompey side en-joyed at the end of last season.

Pompey secured a second season of Premiership football under Redknapp after winning six and losing just one of their last ten games of 2003-04.

Redknapp added: "If we play like we did at home to Everton we will give ourselves every chance."
