The Scotland international joined Aston Villa this summer to bring an end to an unhappy spell which saw him frozen out of the first-team picture at Spurs. Hutton is now embracing the chance to play regularly under Villa manager Alex McLeish - his former boss with Rangers and Scotland - and put his recent disappointments behind him.
The 26-year-old said of Redknapp, who has been tipped to succeed Fabio Capello as England boss: "The last time I spoke to Redknapp, he told me 'I don't want you to train with us any more, I want you to train with the kids'. I don't think anybody should be treated like that."
He added: "So many people there feel unwanted. I've never experienced anything like that anywhere I've been. Is that a good reputation? I don't know."
Hutton, whose Villa side face QPR on Sunday, told several Sunday newspapers: "At one stage there were five right-backs there - me, Kyle Naughton, Kyle Walker, Pascal Chimbonda and Vedran Corluka.
"In what first-team squad do you ever get that? It's usually two. I spent four months there doing nothing. It is a massive knock to your confidence.
"For me it was an unhappy place and I knew my time was up a while ago."
