Redknapp talks SWP

[FantasyIreland]

And,in his unique 'everybody loves Arry' way,made him look a right cnut.

He states,even though clubs want him on loan he's sitting on his contract and refusing to budge,but,even though he's listed the interested clubs and referenced the lads personal contract..... he has no problem with him doing such.......I'm sure it must be very frustrating for a manager,but he's out of order doing that imo.

Roles reversed does anyone thing 'Arry would be taking a pay cut to move to another club? SWP is 33 years old, his career is essentially over at this point, he's lost his pace, which was his main asset, and without it he's a Championship player at this stage. No Championship club will be willing to pay him the, no doubt extorionate, wages QPR offered him. I'm sure it is frustrating for 'Arry, who will want to spend the money on some other overpriced footballer with an agent willing to "share the wealth", but he'll just have to live with it.

Clubs who put players on expensive longish contracts should not be surprised if they're reluctant to move later on. 'Arry can't be so stupid as to not realise that, no matter how frustrating he finds it.

Red knapp is a twat.


Slightly off topic, just saw recently some videos about SWP and it reminded me how much I loved him running down the wings, skipping past players and he had quite a shot in him too!

Got bored and checked the telegraph yesterday and saw a piece on old Arry.
Basically called him out on his recent whining about players and said "well you bought them mate, it is your team"

Harry loves experienced players. He was always trying to sign old bastards at Spurs. When he spoke to the media he couldn't get who he wanted he managed to get Ryan Neilsen and Louis Saha and a failed bid for Phillip Neville. Levy was wise just to do them on a one year contract but if your board/chairman are silly enough to do a 3-4 year contract for a 30+ year old on mega wages you're asking for trouble

Bring him home on loan and let him retire a blue.

Bring him home on loan and let him retire a blue.

Nah, send him over to New York City to get a rivalry going with Bradley at the Red Bulls

 

[Ell-ano]

Bring him home on loan and let him retire a blue.

Or offer him some coaching/ ambassadorial role

So is it because of his age that some think this is acceptable on SWP's part or is it because he is a beloved former blue? I can think of several players in the past and present that used to get ripped to good shreds for the same thing. One very recently by the OP.
