Just watched the Redknapp post match. As much as I may be reading between the lines here, but I kind of feel like Harry was aiming a swipe at Pav amongst his Niko comments.
It infuriates me when Harry uses this kind of logic, when it is clear that players like Pavlyuchenko are being treated in different ways to the other players that Harry favours. Whilst it may be true that Pav is sulking, I think he has a RIGHT to sulk. He has gone through this shit since coming to the club and has NEVER been given a decent opportunity by Redknapp. He is always looking to drop him after a poor performance. Its quite pathetic.
He says at one point during that interview that we 'lost our shape/purpose' when Crouch went off, which I wholeheartedly disagree with. We got a fantastic goal at the end through the means of fantastic movement with the ball ON THE GROUND, for once. How can he say that we were better when Crouch was on the pitch, when all those minutes we struggled to score in open play!?
I am a Pav fan but I'm not deluded into thinking he is the best in the prem or anything, but he is the best we have got. When Redknapp shows this kind of attitude it makes me feel sick to my stomach. I know Redknapp is the reason for our success, but his stubbornness infuriates me at times.
