United will face Spurs at White Hart Lane, with Ferguson well aware of Saha’s capabilities having coached the Frenchman for four years at Old Trafford.
Saha later joined Everton before signing for Tottenham at the end of January.
“I don’t know the circumstances behind Louis Saha’s transfer but Everton were happy to let him go,” Ferguson told Inside United.
“And then he goes to Spurs and scores two goals [against Newcastle]. That’s typical of Louis. He’s got tremendous talent, he just doesn’t play enough.
“He is a handful, no doubt about that. He’s got two great feet, he’s quick, he’s got a good spring in the air. There’s no doubt he is a handful.”
The Scot added that Spurs possess ample firepower in their ranks.
“They’ve got a fantastic squad, and a goal threat throughout the team,” he said.
“Gareth Bale contributes, Rafael van der Vaart, [Jermain] Defoe, [Emmanuel] Adebayor. They’ve got goals in their team.”
The Red Devils, recent 2-1 victors at Norwich, are two points behind leaders Manchester City, and eight ahead of Spurs, who were thumped 5-2 by Arsenal in their previous league test.
