Pressure is on Manchester City - Harry Redknapp

[mancboy123]

The comments from redknapp are laughable and the fact they are highlighted in the press so fondly shows just what a little englander press we have in this country.

Take apart the game tomorrow it doesnt matter. Look at mancinis record in management, look at redknapps, look at their relative ages, look at the clubs that wanted to employ them.

They dont even compare, they are not even in the same league. Redknapp has been in the champions league once and one cup in nearly 30 years in management. Mancini well his record in 2 leagues speaks for itself.

Spurs spending passes 'big four'

Tottenham spent almost £150m on transfers in the last 16 months, making them the second highest spenders in the Premier League behind Manchester City.

Spurs spent £119.3m in the year ending June 2009, with another £29.4m invested since on the likes of Peter Crouch, Sebastien Bassong and Niko Kranjcar.

It eclipses the sums paid out by each of the 'big four' of Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal.

really hope we stuff these wankers tomorrow, because the media can't wait for us to loose.

It's all mind games. You will hear a lot of shit like this from Fergie and Harry as long as they are in the race for the title.

 

[Mike D]

F*ck him anyway, but doesn't it make a refreshing change that we are the most talked about game of the entire weekend.

I'm sorry but I couldn't resist posting this from ragcafe

"You're turning this into a like/dislike situation against the person, which is not what this thread is about. Like or dislike the man(Redknapp), he's spot on, and he's a far better manager than Manchini will ever be."

LMFAO

Much more pressure on them as if they lose tomorrow they will be 8 adrift.
Harry's little digs are just going to spur our team on..does he really expect Mancini to buckle as a result of his inane comments?
Silly mind games are just what we need.
Can't wait for tomorrow as reckon we will give spuds and that bitter fool what they deserve.

a little song for Harry on sunday:

(to the tune of the Dads Army Song)

Who do you think you are kidding Mr. Redknapp?
If you think we're on the run,
We are the boys who will stop your little game.
We are the boys who will make you think again.
'Cus who do you think you are kidding Mr. Redknapp?
If you think new City's done?

or

(to the tune of who let the dogs out)

Who screwed the Tax man?
Who, Who, Who, Who, Who?

add your own ...
