Premiership games 26/27 Dec 2010

[Bender]

Wow thanks Bender.

I'm looking forward to a thirty minute free shopping spree in my local John Lewis store.

enjoy Neil enjoy it's been bedlam in the shops

[Rudo]

Hate saying this but Spurs are turning into a top team now.

Harry's done a triffic job in fairness.

[Rudo]

Oh and City to beat Newcastle at 5/4 was a bit of a Christmas gift to say the least.

[destinydude]

I guess with the kind of money he was given to spend it was bound to happen regardless of him. Money talks though it would be a it unfair of us to discredit him in anyway. He's done a decent job.

Bull**** dude, complete bull****.

The likes of Gomes, King, Assou-Ekotto, Hutton, Lennon, Jenas, Modric, Bale, orluka, Dawson, and Pavlyuchenko were already at the Club when he took over, now most of that lot are playing a big part in Tottenham's success under Harry.

Which players has he bought for big money

[Fernandinho]

How much were Defoe and Crouch? He also bought VDV but he was fairly cheap I believe.

[destinydude]

Palacios, Defoe for 15m each. Crouch for 11m. Vander Vaart this season(had a bit of luck) there and Gallas on 90k a week.

He surely was given a lot and they had a good team that was under bad management. They spent like 170 million is the last 4-5 yrs.

Edit: Add Younes Kaboul for 9.5m, Robbie Keane for (12+3.5m?), Sandro Ranieri for 14m(Haven't even heard of him),Bassong for 8m and then a bit of a steal with Kranjcar for 2m.

He spent a lot. No kidding.

From 2006 to 2011 Tottenham have spent 225m and recouped 135m with a net spend of 90m. We had 45m net in the same period.

[dww]

Watching the highlights of the Wolves game you can't help feeling that they are pretty much the referees unions least favourite team. I don't think I've seen any game this season when they haven't been done by the man in black.

Apparently (according to MOTD) today was the first time Carlton Cole has scored 2 goals in a Premiership match

We'll be putting in a £20m bid first thing then I guess

Well whatever, the fact remains he took over a side that were bottom of the league and has miraculously took them to the Champions League - now in the last 16 and going very well in the League.

And as i said before many of the players that were bottom of the league under Ramos, are now playing a massive part in Tottenham's season - the likes of Hutton, Bale and even Jermaine ****ing Jenas have been revelations under Redknapp's management.

He's got them playing great football yet they still have a solid base with players like Dawson, Kaboul and Palacios.

When you think about Spurs are pretty much the opposite of ourselves. They play nice, sharp passing football and with pace, they play with great hunger and ethusiasm. Us, on the hand produce slow, boring, lifeless performances week in week out.

"miraculously took them to the Champions League"

Firstly, their 'bottom' position was always a false one.

Secondly, anyone of me or y....well, actually...

Ok. Given the money he's had to spend, even I could take that side to the CL.

It's one of the current myths of football, that what Harry Redknapp's doing is some amazing feat.

And their 'solid base' ships more goals than you post silly comments

Simple riddle here for you - what do you think happens when a manager is given ****loads to spend?

Thanks Craig for making my job a bit easier

Just been mentioned on Sky Sports too, 1st time in 200 PL appearances he's scored 2 goals in a game, that's the only stat that we need to see he's not Liverpool quality
