O/T Capello Resigns / New England Manager Speculation Thread

you hadn't insulted me unnecessarily until now.

i am happy to hear opposing views to my own, but childish name calling doesn't achieve anything or do anything for me... so if you want to be reported also you shall be.

good day.

I cant be bothered looking through your previous 377 posts because i remember your a bit of a follower, off the top of my head you normally just respond with 'this' or 'agreed' or 'good post' - be assured I'll be watching you. One childish name in a post and boom, there I'll be. lol

But he puts himself on the panel of studio commentators for the Euro's when he knows full well if England lose he will be asked the question about what he would have done, what his tactics would have been who would be have played etc etc ?

I'm sorry, but that's one of the most attention seeking thing he has done, that excludes him actually stopping for the media for them to talk to him without him asking.

He 'put himself on the panel.'?

He was probably asked and decided to do it. He has been nothing but gracious since Roy got offered the job. What makes you think he would suddenly change that tack?

More blind Harry hate, twisting every little thing against him to suit your own perception.

He's already backed Hodgson publicly. If he turned the panel job down then would it not look like he was sulking?

He probably likes being a pundit, I'm sure he'll criticise the team/manager if it's warranted (just like he did when Capello took Defoe off and brought on Heskey against Germany) and praise the team/manager if they succeed.

Of course he has, but he's said he is fed up with his name being mentioned, he's only concentrating on spurs, so he goes along as a pundit in the firing line of questions about him in the role and what he would have done, during what could be a very important summer for us ?

What??? Oh, I see your drift.

One rather significant fact: Villa were not in the top 3 for near the whole season, and didn't spectacularly spunk it up a wall.

To be honest, that is what we should be more concerned about, not the first line.

I assume he'll be attending some of the games too.

Who knows, maybe we'll get our transfer business done early for a change.

Come on mate.... Redknapp had to back Hodgson; he isn't going to say 'I think he is a complete cnut and I hate his guts for getting the job, when I should have got it'.

Out of interest, and a serious question, when has Redknapp been asked before to be a pundit for a major tournament, for one of the major TV companies?? I don't remember one offhand. If he hasn't, its a remarkable co-incidence that he has now.

I doubt this has any bearing on our transfer dealings. Most managers and players go on holiday in the off season anyway, not like he'd be at the club if he was not at the Euros

He said he has had enough of his name mentioned, he has never thought of the England job he has always had his mind on Spurs, gets asked by the English tv media to be a pundit knowing fine well how the media will be with him, are you as thick as him in thinking he wont be asked about the job 'Thanks for being with us Harry, dont you wish you were out there yourself?' 'Harry we lost that game 2-0, how would you have setup that team, who would you have picked?' 'England crash out at the Euro's, we will never know if Harry would have done better for us' and on and on and on and on. Yet he has chosen to be in that line of fire, even though he is fed up of it. I mean really ? really, am I changing this to suit my own perception, or could it be I'm actually pretty much spot on ?

A simple response would be, 'I have a job to do at Spurs in which I anticipate a very busy summer, thank-you for the invite but I wont be there in person but can assure you I'll be there with the team every step of the way' blah blah blah.
 
Prior to England game:

'Harry, who would you pick? What system? What are our strengths etc?'

England don't play the team/system Harry suggests.....

After the game, Headline:

Hodgson selection and tactics a failure, Redknapp gets it right!!!

Come on!!! Open you bloody eyes people....this is just MORE distraction we don't need.

I would have thought the best place for Harry this summer was next to a pool, relaxing in a year where he's had heart problems and MAJOT stress with a court case.

He was a pundit for BBC at the last World Cup.

I really feel sorry for Roy Hodgson. He is a football man through and through. Isn't a loudmouth. Good chap. Yet he has entered the dragon like no other England manager before.

Unless he succeeds brilliantly, he will fail spectacularly. No in-between. Hope he hasn't got a weak heart.
