Harry Redknapp believes his former club and QPR's opponents this weekend Tottenham are strong enough to field two teams in the Premier League.
Redknapp left White Hart Lane at the end of last season, despite guiding the club to a fourth-placed finish, and was replaced by Andre Villas-Boas.
The former Chelsea and Porto manager has continued the good work Redknapp started at Spurs and the club is currently 11/10 to finish in the top four once again this season, while QPR are now 4/9 to be relegated.
Spurs are third, 26 points better off than Rangers, and are 17/20 to win Saturday's London derby at Loftus Road.
Redknapp said in the build-up to the clash: "Spurs could field two teams who could compete in the Premier League. They have a second team who would hold their own at the top level without any problem. For a start, they have five top-class centre-backs.
"They can afford to let Danny Rose go to Sunderland on loan because they have people like Benoit Assou-Ekotto, Kyle Naughton and Kyle Walker in the squad. They have loads of top-class midfielders.
"They're full of quality everywhere. It's a similar group to the one I left but then Moussa Dembele has gone in and done well. They have an outstanding group of players, no doubt about that."
Meanwhile, Spurs target Leandro Damiao has said he will remain at his current side, Internacional - for now.
