The former Tottenham boss claims that Roy Hodgson shouldn’t be judged immediately for his performances in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ukraine-c3032, instead he should be given ample time to prove himself.
For England and Harry Redknapp, the last few months have been tumultuous to say the least. At White Hart Lane, things were as rosy as they could be, with the club on the brink of challenging for the Premiership title.
However just when Spurs’ fans starting celebrating, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 manager and Redknapp became favourite to take over. Whether it was down to the players or the publicity the trainer received himself, the Londoners seemingly
lost their impressive form and cascaded down to the UEFA Europa League places in less than a month.
Criticism flowed from all corners and several stars have threatened to leave the helm now. But despite what has happened, Redknapp still remains a huge Three Lions supporter and has backed the current tactician to continue, although the English failed to
impress at the European Championships.
Besides, the dullest football ever witnessed on the International stage, England somehow managed to make it to the quarter-finals, where they beaten by a robust Italian side on penalties.
Roy Hodgson has also come under intense scrutiny for utilizing ultra-defensive tactics, but Redknapp has gone out of his way to back the former West Brom coach, saying that he needs more time to test his mettle.
“No-one's blaming Roy or anyone else, that's for sure. I mean he's just took over, he's going to have to get his own style of play, but we've got to start playing some football haven't we? It is unbelievable. We keep underestimating our players. I don't
care what anybody says, we have got good players.”
"Our back four and the goalkeeper will be as good as any back four and goalkeeper in the tournament, man for man. You know, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/John-Terry-c18895. Jolean Lescott had an excellent tournament."
England, though, will have to turn around their fortunes quickly and ensure that the team is in much better shape when the World Cup approaches in 2014.
