Harry Redknapp, or 'Arry as the British press call him, is the manager of Tottenham Hotspur. He's been a manager for years and is known for "tellin' it like it is."
The Spurs are to meet Manchester City tomorrow with three points and a fourth-place finish on the line. Whomever wins that match will be in the Champions League top four for next year. It may not sound like a lot but it's worth millions of dollars to a club to be included in CL play.
So 'Arry was asked about the opposition and the subject of Carlos Trollvez was brought up. This is what 'Arry had to say:
Many believe United made a mistake in allowing Tevez to leave as they go into the weekend a point behind leaders Chelsea, but Redknapp feels Ferguson is completely justified in his decision.
In a five-part exclusive interview with Soccernet in the build-up to the big game, Redknapp said: "There is only one point in it in for the race for the title, and that's the fine dividing lines these days and, let's face it, he has achieved that without Cristiano Ronaldo or Tevez.
"To be fair to Sir Alex, he probably thought that £45 million - or whatever the true cost for Tevez was - was a bit much, plus his wages of £180,000 a week, when he wasn't even a regular in the United team last season, spending most of his time coming off the bench.
"Sir Alex has spent £30 million on Berbatov and he had Rooney and, at the start of the season, he would have thought that was enough, and so would most people."
Couldn't agree more 'Arry. I'm hoping that Tottenham crush City. There is only one side in Manchester...the red side. :)
