Probably clutching at straws a bit mate! That effort took a wild deflection and forced the keeper to tip it over the bar.
Harry ain't infallible either. I'm sure you noticed he started Bobby "Donkey Kong" Zamora, even though the bloke's only just had a hip operation and can barely walk let alone run! I don't want to slate a young lad who obviously has footballing ability and probably a good future ahead of him but alas, he's just not suited to the current team and league he's in. As you and I agreed before, he's the type of player who will play well in a good team and in a good league. But in a sh*t team and even shi*tier division, he's struggling big time.
I agree 100% with you on this one Boss. A guy with plenty of football in his feet but unfortunately not a lot of desire in his heart. Players like him drive me mental because the least you expect from a guy who earns tens of thousands in one week is that he'll give it his all for the 90 minutes he's asked to perform. I don't know if you saw much of Taarabt when he was with you but I could never stand him either and I hope he stays at Fulham. All trickery but about as much heart as a Sloth.
As for old droopy face himself, he really needs to do summink wiv us fast or we'll tumble down the table and our season will be in ruins. He has no fit strikers at the Club. Zero. How he thought he could get through a season with a pair of sick notes like Andy Johnson and Zamora is beyond me. It was a terrible oversight, bordering on criminal. Its time for Redknapp to earn his salary!
P.S. How do you feel about Sherwood's appointment? I've no doubt he's held in the highest esteem by you lads but has he just been placed in there to be a yes man for Levy and that other geezer?
I remember one of Taarabts early games for us, West Ham away, tried to take on their entire defence, won a free kick and Berba scored! He never played much for us but when he did, you know the script, dribble,dribble, dribble, fall over or run into a brick wall!
But to be fair to Adel he could be a decent player with a different mentality, but the Taarabt that he believes he is, belongs in the Championship as I know he done wonders in the Championship.
Redknapp likes his tried and tested players mixed with some young talent, he will believe Zamora and Johnson are proven, he knows what he's getting, same with Jenas, Green and Barton but it looks like you're crawling your way to promotion. Would that matter if it lacks style? Probably not but when Promoted Redknapp would at least prepare you to survive.
Sherwood in general isn't liked, if you go on Google you will find articles, video clips, where he is mouthing off, from sticking the boot into Hoddle, saying he's an Arsenal fan, demanding he was hired............. Mouthy is OK if you have talent or some substance yet all Sherwood keeps saying is '' It's a simple game!''...... '' the players are hearing a new voice ''.
Not many hold him in high esteem, apart from Levy!
But and it's important but. Sherwood deserves a chance to see if he can show if he's managerial material and if he's a success fans will forget his gooner past or mouthing off................. Until he screws up!
