Norwich City manager Chris Hughton has said that only time will tell if Tim Sherwood will succeed as manager of Tottenham Hotspur.
Hughton, who spent more than a decade as a coach before moving into management with Newcastle United, comes up against Sherwood tomorrow afternoon at Carrow Road.
"Tim has gone in and taken over a top quality team and time will tell with Tim," the 55-year-old is quoted as saying by Sky Sports News. "He was [at Spurs] as a player when I was a coach and he has certainly started well with a talented squad.
"For every person it is different. My apprenticeship was a far longer period. I spent something like 14 years as a coach before going to Newcastle and then into management.
"That allowed me to gain the experience on different aspects of coaching and seeing how other managers worked and their methods and that helped me immensely when I took the first step into management."
The Canaries are currently one point above the Premier League relegation zone.
