Why would moyes leave Everton to go to spurs when they only finished 3 places abouve everton and now with jelavic everton probably will finish above tottenham 2012/13 season plus modric and bale ( who they depend on )might be leaving and spurs and there is some rumours that van der vart might be going to shalke and brad friedel might be replaced

Oh for gods sake lets get a reality check on this ! Yes Arry came along , did wonders and saved us and developed a decent team but that is where it ends ! 1- Who did he actually buy that plays for us now , Parker , friedall , Pienner brought , never needed with Bale there , any others ???????
2 - Arry always spouts off about loyalty ! When all the Spurs fans were singing his name and asking him not to leave for England , what did he do ? Did he stand up and say happy here no chance of leaving ? Did he rush to Levy and say he wanted a new contract straight away ? No , he sat on his arse and said nothing ! If loyalty was that important and he wanted to finish building Spurs then he would have stood up and said , yes I would love to manage England but this team I am building is too important . Let me get to the end of the season and then we will talk . But no , what loyalty came out , NONE . Instead , because of his silence and the FA's t**ting about , Spurs suffered , we went on a bad run . But strangely enough , when Hodgson got the England job , we started putting some results together as Arry realised what he had f***ed up . The stats dont lie , compare them !!
Levy had no choice , once Hodgson f***s up and the FA came sniffing , Arry would have been off like a shot . If Spurs meant so much and he is so good , he would have signed a rolling one year contract , proved Levy wrong and got the deal he was after . No , Arry thinks of Arry and whats best for him . Why get an agent all of a sudden , because he has got to big for his boots . I appreciate him for what he has done , but this club will survive with out him and go forward . None of our stars can leave without Levys say so as they are all under contract . If they dont want to play , stick them in the reserves for a couple of months so they realise exactly who pays their wages .
Sorry ,
Rant over ,

All non purs fans just don't get it.
HR sorted his own future. Said far too much.
He struggled with a sh.t Pompey team.
Struggled with a not very good Southampton team. Twice.
Done ok with a ok young wet spam team.
He done ok at Pompey when they don't money.
He was good with a good spurs team.
Again, we spent money.
He DOESN'T transform bad teams into world beaters.
If he managed man city, he would win the league.
If he managed wet spam he would get relegated.
Our team will move on.
HR will move on.
His teams will only play to their ability.
He was lucky enough to manage our team when we bought some very good players.
Like I said, our next boss will be lucky too.

Agree4 Disagree0

That same 'good' spurs team that were 4 points adrift at the bottom of the table? That Spurs team?
HR might not have been the greatest manager in the world but Spurs won't be replacing him with anyone better

Agree1 Disagree3

Oh come on everyone knows we were too good to be relegated, we were in a false position

Agree2 Disagree1

Well said davo Harry redknapp believed his own hype about the English job and showed no commitment to ye good manager but how could ye keep him. If you were going out with some bird and a proper fit bird down the road made out she wanted ya for months and you never told your woman you ain't goin nowhere would she keep ya me thinks not.

David 6 (afc

Like for like. Name the team that was 4 points adrift and name our first team now.
Probably 3 players the same and berba refusing to play.
Stupid comment.
2 almost different teams.
Bale was on loan.
So that leaves
Lennon
Benni
Ledders

What a joke can't believe you let Harry go 4 years ago you were hanging at the bottom of the league and he has left you with 2 top 4 finishes since careful what you wish for I can only see moyes going there if you have plenty of cash and that you keep your best players and I don't think you do, I don't see it as a major step forward for him.

Evertonian

Believable6 Unbelievable6

Evertonian; I think your deluding yourself, I've got more money down the back of my sofa than everton have, so don't think having money is going to be a problem compared to Everton, No matter who leaves or stays our squad is still head and shoulders above yours, bar Baines and possibly Jelevic (Depending on the next season) there is no one I have at Spurs. Also think Moyes would jump at the chance of managing a real club. However personally i would rather let you keep him and get in someone decent.

Delusional Spuds fan again

Bye bye bale and Modric
Hello to 12th in the league
Stoke will finish above you next season

Dont forget you nearly went down before Hawwy

Everton 9 league titles
Spurs two

As if baines or jelovic would go to you, ha ha ha ha

Deluded

Degsybluenose {Ed007's Note - Don't expect any loyalty from Jelavic, if wants a move he will move, he went on strike at Rapid Vienna and spat his dummy out at Rangers. As soon as more money is waved at him he will be looking to move.}

But why would he move to Spurs? A side step at best!

And everton last finished above us when?

14 Jun 2012 14:44:51
Moyes will not leave Everton to go to Spurs, why would he take a sideways step, you will lose top players this season and also Everton have a better history so don't go thinking you are better than them because you are not.

Believable10 Unbelievable4

Shall we have a serious chat? Ok I'll give you the benefit of the doubt - We Spurs are not a "bigger" club the Everton but the truth is your club has problems and you know it, there is no future for you guys unless you get a take over. We on the other hand are in a very good position and have far more potential to actually compete at the top. In terms of club size I Agree it'd be a sideways step, in terms of potential for success there's no question Spurs are the better bet right now!
KB

Agree3 Disagree1

Yes we are, easily. much better side. I'm literally hurting from laughter

Agree0 Disagree4

Sorry KB but you don't seem like a true spur mate, We are a bigger club, we have a bigger turnover, bigger world wide fan base, better players, better facilities, better chairman, better team, bigger sponsors, more history and more potential then Everton, only thing Everton have over us FOR NOW is a bigger stadium and given that they do have that currently it makes it even worse that their turnover and club isn't better.

More history you tube, you mean the four mickey mouse cups we have not won

Everton nine, yes nine titles
Spurs two

Hey look just cos I think Everton are as big as us doesn't mean I don't think we're currently better than them, to be a fan of Spurs doesn't mean you HAVE to sl*g off other clubs, there is nothing wrong with honesty. Everton are a huge club as are Villa, Leeds and Newcastle. We are currently better than all of these teams! Could you have honestly said that 15 years ago? These clubs are going through bad times exactly like we have in our recent past, it doesn't mean they're "smaller" than us.

Whoever manages Spurs next is on a hiding to nothing in my view, as lets face it if 4th is not good enough then what is?

Agree1 Disagree0

Any of those titles in living memory? Your whole squad proberbly wheren't even born the last time Everton won the league.

Agree0 Disagree0

Arry went cos he was in conflict constantly with levy and lewis. Dont matter who is bigger club it's where you finish. we were near bottom after 8 games hardly relegation worry when arry took over. Was a mistake getting rid of jol and levy knows that now. Was the mug commili that did for jol brought in ramos before levy sacked both and got arry in. Levy will get good manager in because we appeal to lots of big managers because of quality of squad. Bale and Modders wont leave cos levy will not sanction that. full stop. In levy we trust. The future is bright the future is Tottenham. Simple as.

Agree0 Disagree0

Thats rich from spurs fans slateing evertons history saying how many titles in your lifetime then in the next breath you say chelsea have no history when clearly credit where its due they are one of the most most succesfull clubs in the last 12 years ...get real everton have a bigger fan base and much more history than spurs fact

vortongen deal will break down, kyle walker, modric, bale and VDV all want to leave well done levy!

Believable6 Unbelievable7

WTF!!! What makes you think they will be ALLOWED to leave? Do you REALLY think that footballers automatically want to jump ship because the manager they like leaves the club? Lets get real here, Bale has a LONG contract and Levy will NOT sell him. Walker ditto. VDV? Only if the new manager wants to sell. Modric? Ditto. Players, throughout their careers can play for plenty of managers, some they will like, some they wont. I would suggest that, before any players start shoving in transfer requests they may well wonder exactly who is going to replace Harry. The new manager will sit down with the players he intends to keep and will sell them the idea of where he intends to take the club, blah, blah. All managers coming into a club do it , it will be no different this time. One thing i will say tho, Levy better have a proven, respected NAME to come in and take over or he is going to look a d*ck head. Im one of those that though Harry should go, the collapse of the end of last season and the countless times he would speak to the press without engaging his brain was pretty p*ss poor. Remember, levy stuck with him all through the Police investigation and the Court case, always made funds available for players and didnt question harry when, in the january transfer window he said " I dont think we will be bringing anybody in, unless an exceptional player comes along or somebody does who is better than we have..." or words to that effect. Finally, what sort of a c*nt tells the press that contract talks ought to hurry up because it will unsettle his players ( the England link obviously didnt) when the chairmans mum is at deaths door/died. Insensitive? er.....
Super Y*d
PS: One more thing. Remember the interview he did with (was it Talk sport?) where he was asked about some Spurs fans questioning his tactics etc, etc? He dismissed those that dared to ask as "they dont know what they are talking about" Maybe they didnt but how dismissive and f*cking arrogant!! Supporters have opinions and they are entitled to have them respected as its us that helps to bank roll the f*cking club and your house on Sandbanks or wherever it is.

Agree2 Disagree1

Levy wont sanction moves by vdv modders or bale. simple as. other supporters need to get over this desperate need for us to fall apart. Wont happen. Levy is smart got them all under long contracts and will hold them to it unless it suits spurs. Will add more quality. Yids stop worrying and being fatalistic and doom and gloom merchants. The future is bright cos the future is yid!! coys

It's a shame to see you get rid of Harry. I really liked the team he had build and was continuing to build. Oh well, I guess we'll just have to take Modric off your hands.

A United Fan

Believable4 Unbelievable7

Well if u got 40ml then yes you could however i think Daniel Levy will pull out something special that will put a stop to anyone wanting to leave Spurs.Just my thoughts of course but i don't think he would have done this unless he had someone else in mind.Don't think the new manager will come from the premiership more like europe.

Agree2 Disagree3

14 Jun 2012 12:21:55
Fellow Yods.....Time to get real and stop squeeling. 2nd half of the seaon we imploded after beating the barcodes 5-1. Lennon got injured, no cover, no plan, Blae played out of position. King and dawson crocked we get Neilsen and Saha. Humilited at the Emirates after being 2 nil up, humiliated by Chelsea at Wembley. I was at WHL when we made Stevenage look like Barcelona and Norwich (with respect) like Real Madrid. Could nt even beat Villa when the chips were down. I'm sick of hearing what great stuff we played. 2nd half we were pants total rubbish. We threw away a nailed on CL spot. So why is anyone on here kidding themmselves. Harry done us proud but he did nt have a clue. And can we stop bleating about the court case and the illness, he's the manager and gets paid more money than most Spurs fans will see in ten lifetimes. He would have taken the England job without a second thought no question. He has no loyalty except to his bank balance. And as for all the players that are suppossedly gonna leave then I say, Bye Bye cos most of you were rubbish too. You got no fight, no heart and no care for fans like me who were humilited at the Emirates and Wembley. So bring on AVB or Martinerz cos they will get the likes of Dos Santos and all the talented youngsters playing like a the great team we deserve to be. Wake Up , Redknapp is going because he is a) greedy and b) he simply failed to deliver

Believable6 Unbelievable0

Double standards there mate. Our season went tats up after new year. Everton and Wigan had terrible starts.
So what happens if Martinez (or Moyes as some other are saying) get off to a bad start again. Do we all call for them to be sacked too?
Everton and Wigan have had there problems this season, like us.
So calling them 2 names out is ludicrous.
AVB is totally different, I don't think anyone can survive at chelski.
Not even winning the double is good enough

Agree1 Disagree1

You make quite a few different points. I will only respond to some of them.

Yes, we imploded but was that the manager or the players? I fear there were some big egos that believed their own hype. I think you were spot on there.

When fans talk about loyalty I wonder what planet they are on. What loyalty do we show when a player goes off the boil? What loyalty do club chairmen show when the manager hits a bad spot?

Of course Harry was thinking about his own bank balance: who wouldn't?

There was no Plan B because the quality of much of the squad was a bit short of what was needed to keep the pressure up on the top two. That is because Spurs cannot yet compete financially with the likes of Man United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Man City or even Liverpool. We have plenty of good players, but not enough that are really top class.

I suspect we sold Pavlyuchenko and loaned out Corluka, Bassong and Pienaar in January to reduce the wage bill in preparation for the introduction of a costly new player (probably Tevez on loan). When that deal fell through we had to bring in Saha and Nelsen as stop gaps just to get us through to the end of the season.

If you think AVB or anyone else can get Giovani Dos Santos playing like a superstar then you must have seen something in him that has escaped me (and the clubs to which he has been loaned).

I am not trying to critice a fellow fan. I am just adding my own thoughts on the issues you raised

Anyway - enough about the past, let's look forward and hope for the best

14 Jun 2012 11:57:40
I personally wouldn't mind seeing AVB get the job. Of all the clubs in England I think we can agree that Chelsea is the worst place to start a managerial career in england, because there is a certain Russian who wants immediate success. We would give him the time needed to prove that he is the new mourinho. Sad to see Harry go, he did wonders and it's inevitable that big players will leave, but he should have come out when the England Job came up saying whether he wanted it or not. If he had, we may not be in this position.

Believable4 Unbelievable0

14 Jun 2012 11:08:49
Liverpool fan here, some of you who want Benitez don't realise that it would be a bad move because imo Harry shouldn't of been sacked but if you get Benitez he won't play positive football at all he is negative and in the transfer market he can make good buys but some shocking ones too, Harry did well keeping Modric last summer Benitez would let him go and spend the money on a load of crap then just the one good buy.

Believable5 Unbelievable1

Arry didn't do well keeping Modric it had F all to do with Arry. The reason Modric stayed was because Daniel Levy refused to let him leave.

Agree3 Disagree1

Modric wanted to go last season and also now, penny signs i wonder, bale wants out cause no cl, rvv, may be going, these three players, played most of season, if they had played to their full potentail, and in their right positions, maybe harry would still be at tottenham. y if harry was so great dident these players who are now complaining play out of their skin when tngs were going wrong, instead of hiding. all 3 are good players but watching modric last season after levy kept him showed if a player isint fully committed to the shirt their is no point in keeping them.

Agree0 Disagree0

He might have stayed because levy forced him to but the reason he continued to shine was because of harry's management

14 Jun 2012 10:46:38
Wow.... I'm disgusted... Harry has transformed Tottenham Hotspurs, unearthed incredible talent and brought another title contenter to the premier league. All lost for one relationship between chairman and manager? All lost after a not so fantastic season end? (And don't give me England temptation because thats just BS. Harry might have been slightly off but that doesnt change how the players played)

Thanks for all the momories, Harry Redknapp.

Believable3 Unbelievable3

He earthed half our talent by lack of rotation though and also we were never really title contenders...
Great man manager and created a great first 11, which was an improvement, but the premiership is about a 24 man squad nowadays, so bring in a man who can create 2 or 3 great first 11 variety..
Thank you, but Good-bye Harry

14 Jun 2012 09:17:57
Good morning my little Spudlins,

Im sure many of you will be truely disapointed in the decison to relieve 'Arry of his duties. I like Spurs, they always have been a team ive never disliked and always favoured you lot as under dogs the last couple of years whilst Liverpool have been out of top 4 contention. I think, personally though, the names drawn up are nothing short of dreadful.

Moyes.. Now heres a manager who has been tipped to take over Fergie, get the Chelsea job and at one point this summer linked with us!? Thank god that was only paper talk, as his football is negative, he's just Martin O'Neil in disguise.. Ok maybe not THAT bad, but not far off. I dont understand what pedigree he has and what experience he could bring to your team. Sure they finished quite high this year (higher than us may i add) but wheres the silverware? Wheres the intent to play nice football that spurs are so used to seeing. No is the answer, Moyes is certainly not the future.

Bentiez.. Well we Liverpool fans are split on good old Rafa. Positives are he playes quite good football. Not brilliant but seems to get the job done, from time to time though his radical decision making has completely f*cked us up. Upsetting players, messing round with tactics so on. Im a believer in the first couple of years due to limited budgets, he had to make do of what he was given which is when we saw the best of Rafa. We didnt really have any Superstars in the team back in 2005! Give the guy £60/£70m quid and he is a lunatic. He left our club in a bad way and i wouldnt want to see him come in and do the same to you.

AVB is a ambitious young manager, when at his time at Chelsea was his own worst enemy.. Some people say he was unlucky and was instantly disklliked at Chelsea from day 1 due to his age, decison making and all round persona. I actually think he would be one of the best options for Spurs, lots will disagree but i think tactically astute, young and will play the spurs way. Managers have to go through making mistakes to become better and i think Chelsea is a lesson he learned the hard way. Good option!

Guardiola is your darling though, dreams of seeing him walk out with a Spurs scarf above his head is every spurs fans fantasy.. But one thing whcih would concern me is if he coudlnt handle the pressure managing quite possibly the best footballing team that has ever stepped foot on a pitch, then how would he fare in the premier league race which consists of United, City, Arsenal, Yourselves, Chelsea, Liverpool, Newcastle... It was a 2 horse rase in Spain, 2 horses too many for Pep. I would say all is not what it seems with him, not saying he'd be a bad option but i wouldnt expect winning the league in his first season was acheivable, or do i think he'll join Tottenham!

Biesla would be the absolute perfect option.. Now most of you will know this guy but for those that dont, he is sensational. If your to replace 'Arry with anybody, this should be the man you do everything in your power to get. Tactically the best coach on the planet in my opinion, works terrifcly with the youth, hAs been used to only being alowed to play with what he is allowed to play with at Bilbao.. The guy would tick every single box barr from not speaking English. I wouldnt see that though as a 'huge' concern for now, with a good Brittish number 2 in that could easily be sorted.

Anyway thats only my opinion, i hope your futrue is sorted out sooner rather than later

All the Best

Sam Adzii JFT96

Believable3 Unbelievable2

Thats be honest, HR going was on the cards, he could never keep his gob shut, spent to much time in the media, openly critised the CL, blew 13points over the scum, publicly admitted if offered the England job would have been off, like the proverbally rat and drain pipe, and tht was after Hodgson had got it. So all in all he was always going (imo), although I'm not sure how I feel about it right now. I think depending on who comes in, will also see what playing staff stay or go, I think Moyes or Benitez seem fav according to these pages. If one of these were to happen, Modric, Bale, VDV and possibly Sandro will all leave to. Not to mention Big Jan will also pull out. We need a manager who can attract top players and keep our top players and play good flowing football and my personal opinion is there are only 2 managers around to do that 1) Guardiola, but this will never happen if the mega billions of Chavski can't tempt don't think spurs will be overly attractive to him unfortunatley, 2) and possibly more likely is Biesla of Bilbao, this guy is immense, don't think not speaking english is to much of a problem, Antcalotti (excuse spelling)didn't speak much english either but won the PL with Chelsea, this guy could also bring in a certain striker we have courting for over a season!. I would personally move heaven and earth for this guy.

Please not Moyes, AVB or Benitez!!

Moyes is top manager he spends the least in prem and still finishes top 8 every year don't forget he has finished in top 4 without spending a penny Harry made you the team you are today and now you will not be there next season your club is about to be destroyed

Look everyone. Wake up.
Levy had no choice.
When HR stated he would of taken England job,what was DL to do?
If hodgeson mucks it up, in say a year, who will the FA turn too?
So HR wanting a new 3/4 year deal wasn't going to happen.
He would of been off.
Hence the 1 years rolling contract offer.
So spurs had no choice when they couldn't agree.
So all these fans slating spurs need to know

He stated he would take the England job ages ago. No reason to sack someone.

4 years of hard work and levy wants to start again.a team needs to be built not keep tearing it apart and starting again. He has not got a clue. He was the one that tried to follow the conti style and go us a director of football.what a mess that was then he got us a load of rubbish to coach the club.his ego is killing the club Martin got us 5th and was sacked we all know Harry record and got the sack so this tells me levy wants 3rd plus. He is making a mess and the quicker we get him out the better. Our biggest money lost is buying managers and sacking them.get ready for a backwards season. To all u Harry haters and levy lovers talk to be when we struggle this season. Maybe we get Harry back in jan when things are not going well.

Im a Liverpool fan but Rafa will be your best appointment not AVB. He did by some poor players but so has Ferguson. He brought in players like Torres, Mascherano, Alonso, Reina, Garcia, Babel, Lucas plus many more and won us the Champions league. If Bielsabub Moyes joined at least Everton will get relegated. ARRY for the DOF at Liverpool.

Believable1 Unbelievable1

I don't think you can claim babel as a success. And SAF has bought a lot less failures than Rafa did in comparison to how long they were at both clubs.

Hey come on guys. A few weeks ago everyone was stating IN LEVY WE TRUST. Now because Arry is no more everyone's turning their back on Levy.

Daniels not a stupid man. Granted tight fisted sometimes but he's not stupid. He wouldn't have let Arry go if he did not have a back up plan and would have a replacent in mind first before taking such drastic action.

Hopefully he's not looking to promote from within as I wouldn't want Joe Jordan or Tim Sherwood but I'm sure he has a plan. There's still plenty of time before the start of the new season to sign players and a manager lets just see what happens.

We have to look at this as a positive and look at it as the start of a new era and hopefully the start of something great.

Trust in Levy and let's see what he's made off then if at the end of the season it's clear he's made a mistake then we can start the witch hunt.

Mk1

Believable4 Unbelievable1

Mk1 ur having a laugh. Give me a good reason y we should get behind that mess of a chairman apart from arry tell me 1 good manager he got us. Now think again we want to go forward not back so ur asking 4 a season trial ??? Backwards step thanks mr levy

Agree1 Disagree2

Of course hes got a plan - hes been thinking and planning for this day since Harry started flurting with the FA way back in Febuary.

This will all be sorted out fairly quickly.

I may have been vocal that Harry would be leaving and Moyes would replace him. But this doesnt mean that I am/would be happy with it.

I'm 100% behind Levy in this one. Levy in my opinion definately has a plan. Martinez turned down the Liverpool job cause he wanted the Spurs job.

PS You have to be an person to see that Harry wasn't going to be sacked. His card was marked ages ago.

I am a Liverpool supporter but have always respected Redknapp very highly.
I love the way your team has been playing over the last few years but have to say Levy is the most stupid and woeful of men in his position. I cannot believe he is letting Harry go.
Crazy man

Does no one else think getting rid of Redknapp was a mistake? When we took over we were stone dead last in the league and he eventually led us to Champions league and discovered players like Bale along the way. Sure he may have messed up a bit at the end of last season but shouldnt we give him a chance considering his previous achievements?

Believable2 Unbelievable2

He also kinda messed up at the end of the previous season too. In fact pretty much every club he's managed have fell apart at the final part of the season.

Agree0 Disagree0

We choked last year when we had the chance to be top 3. I was left gutted at the end. Overhauled by a poor gooner side and no cl. Harry was to busy having his head turned and that effected playes. He let us down and now paid the price. This squad can do more next season with a good manager who will ensure we wont choke again. COYS IN LEVY WE TRUST

Agree1 Disagree0

The two seasons before Redknapp came in and "saved us from relagation" we finished 5th. Our squad has been developing under Levy and not Redknapp for 6 to 7 years. Redknapp was a very good manager, was just too preoccupied with being a good reporter. The future is bright in my opinion. Replace who is sold and correct our striker problem.. like Giroud going to arsenal for £12m.. not a problem.. Simples

Chavski here in peace ,cannot believe some spuds glad harry gone,old saying didnt realise what you had till its gone,the football you played was "triffic"wish we won c/l playing like that instead of how we played...

I know it seems unlikely but what about Jurgen Klopp at Dortmund fantastic style of football young would be a breath of fresh air. Do realise he is trying to build something quite special there but anyone can be tempted. As for Klinsmann anyone saying he did a good job at Bayern has got to be having a laugh and joachim low was the man doing all the work when he was with Germany. Realistically we should get behind Moyes as new managers are tended to be given a bit of money. Its not all doom and gloom could be the start of something exciting.

With Harry now gone and Moyes' appointment imminent, (if Fellanini doesnt arrive as suggested) may I remind you all of a post that I have put on here MANY times before only to be laughed at by the masses -

Modders will be sold (to PSG) and his replacement is already a Spurs player - STEPHEN PIENNAR.

Moyes knows how to get the best out of Piennar and will do so again - this time in the White of a Spirs shirt.

With no money needing to be spent on Modders replacement we have (a happy board room and) more funds to put towards the two new forwards that we desperatly need.

Now do you see why I believe this? Before you lock and load, all I ask is that you think about it logically.

Thank you.

Mate, you've had some good, meaningful stuff to say in the past but don't over do it. anyone and everyone could have claimed that harry was on his way. you're not convincing any one that you're ITK.

Agree0 Disagree0

Pienaar played well at everton as he meshed with their style of play.

Also to suggest he's on the same level as modric to be his replacement is crazy.

With redknapp gone its likely a few key players will want to move on, either this year or next. the job of the new manager will be to get a top 4 spot and convince them to stay.

Agree0 Disagree0

Pienaar has the skill and technical ability to get into any starting 11. Keeping him and using him to his strengths would be the most logical thing Tottenham could ever do.

However, i'm an Everton fan and would clearly wish to have him back at Goodison where he is fully appreciated AND partnered with Europe's best LB in Leighton Baines.

Tottenham fans do not deserve to watch Pienaar week in week out (excluding the small minority who actually have a brain and understand the quality player that he is), you lot had your chance and took it for granted.. Now let him transfer back to the club he loves, The Peoples Club.

Thank you Mr Levy, back to your ruthless best.

Believable6 Unbelievable0

Ruthless best, dnt forget it was levy's mob who savedus when sugar sold out, also, redknapp wanted the england job, and would have walked out without giving us a second thought, hes already said he want's another job, that's how upset he is. look at his signings, look at 2 semis 1 final all lost 2 up at the emerates, stuffed 5 2, many a point was lost, buy the tv guru. i for one am not sad levy is loyal to thfc rightly or wrongly, we all make mistakes, but with harry it was everyone else's fault

Agree1 Disagree0

Yeah if only Harry had defended better at the Emirates we would have not lost... Oh wait that was the players. Quit making excuses for them, the players bottled it along with HR

Agree0 Disagree0

13 Jun 2012 23:29:51
When you take everything into consideration, I think Levy has made the right call. HR talked far too much to the media. He was constantly talking about the possibility of Modders leaving instead of saying that the player is under a long term contract with Tottenham. He was actually adding fuel to the fire. When Capello resigned, Spurs started mis-firing. HR made it clear that he was going to abandon ship for England. He had no loyalty so he had to go. I am a bit confused why Levy waited so long to fire him. I do not give him the full credit for the teams performance. If you give him the credit for all the good then he must take the blame for the collapse both this year and LAST year. the club is bigger then HR.

Am I the only person who finds the timing of this all too convenient. It was bubbling under for a couple of days, but Levy has waited until after Chelsea appointed RDM on a 2 YEAR contract before releaving Harry of his duties. Has Levey been in contact with a certain Spanish gentleman who was keen to come to London after a short break from his recent succesful spell at Brcelona???
