Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp insists the club's new mentality will ensure his players will not be daunted by their woeful record at Chelsea.
Spurs have not won at Stamford Bridge since 1990 but Redknapp's side are confident of rectifying that statistic after recording four wins from their opening five league fixtures.
Redknapp said: "You get different players. If you ask Wilson Palacios about Tottenham's record with Chelsea he wouldn't have a clue, would he? Sebastian Bassong wouldn't have a clue.
"I don't think it'll be a case of `we can beat Chelsea'. We'll go and it's another game, a game against a top, top team."
Redknapp has also backed Ledley King to deal with the threat of Didier Drogba and added: "When Didier is playing as he is, he really is an unbelievable powerful striker.
"But Ledley's in great form, Ledley's strong and quick as well so it'll be two powerful players against each other. So I'm sure he'll know he's in a game."

please...You are a good manager but this is Didier we are talking about...the more you search on finding ways of defending against him.. the more likely he is to score 2 or 3... He will score but just make sure that he doesn't score 2 goals otherwise Anelka will make it 3 and then ballack
