We published an article yesterday asking if Tottenham fans would be disappointed if Harry Redknapp stays. They will be if this response is anything to go by…

A poster called SpursGuv writes:

“I’ll be gutted if he stays. A large portion of Spurs doing well is down to Levy and previous signings.

“Van der Vaart forced Redknapp to forgo the dreaded and limited 4-4-2.

“As soon as he gets a chance he reverts to type. No one, like no one plays 4-4-2 and wins anything! I think he is now taking spurs apart.

“There’s certainly a problem with Lennon. Who hasn’t been the same since Redknapp blamed him for defeat in europe (a la Bent style).

“He plays Bale all over the place which screws up both sides of the park. He plays the best central midfielder in the world on the left and replaces him with Livermore, disgusting.

“If I were Modric I’d up and leave now, not the summer. He still can’t pass up a bargain a la Saha and worse he signs a player and promises not to use him against his old club wtf?

“He constantly brings up the England job and I for one think he and the media are the only ones who want him there.

“He’s done his best and is found wanting in many ways. Get rid and forget Mourinho, he’s not coming here, get Moyes or someone else in.

“Southampton and Portsmouth kept him past his use by date and look what happened there.

“Sure we wont follow the financial situation but we are going to suffer on the pitch.

“There’s no disgrace in losing to Arsenal (yeah there is) Man United and Everton but we shouldn’t have and certainly not been hammered by the former two.

“We have been well beaten by City, United and Arsenal where a simple change in tactics would almost certainly have given us points. He doesn’t have it in him.
“Never wanted him. Hate the type of person he is and hate having to give him credit for a decent job so far.

“But if Levy didn’t keep a tight reign on him we’d have a dad’s army at spurs. He bought Crouch, Chimbonda, Defoe, Saha, Parker and Keane all wrong for Spurs.

“We desperately need a decent CB and all the talk is of more strikers. There’s no real cover for Bale, Lennon, Modric, VDV, King, Walker or Ekotto.

“We have Sandro to cover Parker so what does ‘Arry do, bring in Livermore! Another overrated central midfielder! We have some great young players so where are they.

“Instead of moving Bale try one of ’em. They did a good job in Europe. I’ll never forget Harry praising Obika, ‘great player, has a great future’, he’s vanished?

“Harry’s too old school if you ain’t a great trainer you don’t get in.

“For those who’ve played the game you know talent comes above everything. Take King for example, can’t train but gets up for every game even if he is now just losing his edge.

“Bye Harry, I wont miss ya.”

Do you feel the same way?

Do you want Harry to stay at Spurs?
