Harry Redknapp Football Quotations

I've not discussed it with Milan yet. I don't know where it's at yet. But if someone's going to come in and we are going to be able to improve the playing squad, which we need to do, it's got to be good for the football club.

You come here to Anfield, you stand there and listen to that crowd, and it's the greatest sight in football.

I don't think there is any place in football for drinking. I have said on several occasions to players: You don't put diesel in a Ferrari.

I didn't know anything about it, I swear. Nor did Dave Bassett. We were sitting there saying 'What's happening here?'. It is frightening. A nightmare.

It's like being on the Titanic and seeing there's only one lifeboat left.

I can't keep protecting people who don't want to run about and train, who are about three stone overweight. What am I supposed to keep saying? 'Keep getting your 60, 70 grand a week but don't train'? What's the game coming to?

Luckily they had a stupid on their side too.

He is not injured. He's not fit. He's not fit to play football, unfortunately. He played in a reserve game the other day and I could have run about more than he did. I can't pick him.

I tape over most of them with Corrie or Neighbours. Most of them are crap. They can f***ing make anyone look good. I signed Marco Boogers off a video. He was a good player but a nutter. They didn't show that on the video.

What are they going to do, shoot me? It's not war you know.

I've found myself on some days leaving home at three in the morning. I'm outside the training ground at five but they don't open up until seven. I'm just sitting there, listening to the radio.

Scholes was playing tiki-taka football when nobody in England knew what it was. He was another of those players, like Denis Law or Bobby Moore, who at 15 probably looked as if he wouldn't make it. Too small, you would think - can't run, dumpy little ginger nut - but then the ball would come to him and he would dazzle you. He was the best footballer in that Manchester United midfield, better than Ryan Giggs and Roy Keane.

I left a couple of my foreigners out last week and they started talking in 'foreign'. I knew what they were saying: Blah, blah, blah, le b*** manager, f*** uselss b***!

He's disappeared to Azerbaijan, or somewhere ridiculous in the world.
