C:\Review\Soccer\Profile\Harry Redknapp



Name: Harry Redknapp

Club: Tottenham Hotspur

Position: Manager

Editor's thoughts: Everything just happen in a flash. Ramos and gang were sent home after the horrible start of the 08 campaign and on the same day, Spurs introduced Harry Redknapp as the new manager. Looking at how Harry had developed Portsmouth from a mediocre Division One struggler to one of the UEFA contenders in Premiership, I am no doubts over the manager's ability. And the 2-0 win over Bolton on Sunday marks the first win for Spurs, as well as the first for the Harry with Spurs. Glad to see Modric playing as a free role magician and Bentley back as an assassin on the right wing. Impressive play! At the same time, I could foresee several new faces during the transfer window in January, be it players or coaching staff. Ex-captain Tim Sherwood could also be on his way back to Spurs to join forces with Harry Redknapp in reorganising the team. Realistically, anything more than surviving int he league will be a bonus this season. Being a 13 year fan of Tottenham Hotspur, I surely hope to see the club contending with the Big 4 in league, and other football giants in Europe. Nevertheless, welcome on board Harry!
