No cheap points trying to be scored...what you wrote doesn't make sense.

If that dude purposely wrote "Redkrapp" and meant that Harry would be or is in fact crap, he is a prat.

That's why I asked him if it was a typo, meaning an error, or was that not clear?

You're dumb.

I don't want to deliberately ruin the Gio lovin' here, but I have to point out that even if the tournament is their 'Euro's', the US team was not full-strength in any sort of way.

The tournament that best resembles the Euros is the Copa America, which is where all the top nations of the continent participate with their strongest squads. The Gold Cup is a mickey mouse cup in every way.

:grin: 'Nuff said, you are worse than I originally thought.

I mean the guy saved us from relegation, but CLEARLY, you can see through him and his 'limitations' because of some talented kid who showed not enough promise to be given a go and was shipped out on loan. I mean what a cheek 'Arry as to not give him a chance, he obviously has no idea.

But no, YOU can see through him. Well done. I love it when people write posts like yours, it's hilarious.

Yeah he did the job he was brought into do but if you really think Redknapp will achieve anything higher than 8th this season, especially with the people we are after, you are deluded.

Three years ago the idea of Redknapp managing Spurs or us buying Crouch would have made most Spurs fans sick. The fact we have people like you now defending him shows how far we have fallen and how low fans expectations are.

I would've taken Redknapp as manager over Martin Jol anyday. What's the problem? Is he not the big marquee name that you want, is it that he's English or maybe that he has a long association with West Ham?

How on earth does it show how far we've fallen? And how far have we fallen in the last couple of years? February onwards was the best form we've shown for ages and saw us collect 27 points from 14 games including all of the Sky 4. That's 70 points + form.

As for crouch time will tell, but I think it's as much about getting the right partner for defoe as it is for what crouch will do himself, they are a good pairing.

I couldn't care less about West Ham but Redknapp is the dodgiest manager out there. Still out on bail I may add - will be interesting of the CPS take him to court for alleged tax evasion or if they just drop the charges.

However, I don't think Redknapp is good enough to manage Spurs - I never have done and a bit of form at the back end of last season will not convince me either.

A case in point was how we surrendered in Europe to a piss poor team who then went on to win the cup.

If Redknapp can match Jol's two top 5 finishes then I'll give him more credit but tbh I can't see us finishing higher than 8th.

So you would sack Redknapp and bring in who?

Top 5 is now more difficult than Jol's time at the club. That was our real opportunity to break the top 4. The first year only needed 67 points to make the top 4. To put that in perspective the last 2 years have seen a significantly higher return required, 1 year as high as 78!

Redknapp got upto 57 points at cash strapped pompey and won the FA Cup, I think he is worthy of an opportunity to work at a club with our resources.

We went out of Europe 3 days before a cup final with a reserve team!

That sounds like a Redknapp excuse.

If I were running the club we would not have had the Ramos debacle in the first place as I would not have been undermining the manager two games into the season.

Dodging the question mate, what would you do about it right now?

If the answer is nothing then why not be a Tottenham supporter and get behind the manager?

Because he's a Tottenham supporter...not a Harry Redknapp or Daniel Levy supporter

Thank you, you took the words right out of my mouth lol.

Spurs Bear, we are lumbered with him for the moment - shelling out for season tickets (two years this year) and away tickets tends to mean I am a supporter I thought.:whistle:

I just dont think we can play Gio, lennon and Modric in the same team. And Arry seems to love Lennon and Modirc so where does that leave Gio? Hopefully at least a place on the bench!


Maybe all 3 of them behind Crouch. With a defensive mine field of Palacios and Viera behind them?
