    "If we could take him to QPR from Chelsea I would feel very confident, just with that one signing alone, of staying up.

    I've got a lot of time for John, even though I know his career has not been without controversy.
    Some people may think John is a dubious role model, but I would have no hesitation in saying to any young academy defender at QPR; 'Go and watch Chelsea tonight, go and watch Terry , study him all game. Forget about the lip reading. Study him all game.'

    If they pay attention they will learn more in that 90 minutes than they will in a month of (my) training sessions.

    If Chelsea ever lose faith in John I'd take him like a shot (to QPR)"

    From Harry's new book....

    He would make a great partner for Rio. Is Cashley getting many games at Roma? Perhaps a cheeky bid?

    We could be featuring an explosive back four of Terry, the two Antons and Bridge, not much would get past that lot...😃

    This just shows how out of touch Harry is with the club and fans - maybe he could go and get El Hadj Diouff as well to complete the pantomime villian set-up

    In fairness, you'd probably learn more watching an episode of Tom and Jerry.

    Even if it was written before June (when it was first implied that Rio would definitely join) there was always a chance for pre-release editing. I think Arry would be best off not lipreading Rio when he picks up his copy of the book.

    It's a new level of stupidity that plums new depths beyond the abyssal zone.

    I'm surprised he's got time to write a new book!!!

    In the tactics section the pages must be blank.

    It's as sparse as Cloughie's "What owners know about football" chapter.

    Cherry picked quotes from his bookie wookie released by journos to raise the blood pressure of QPR fans

    In what world would John Terry ever be welcome at QPR? He has no idea about our club and is only about himself

    The big question i have. How does he read his own book? I thought he claimed he couldn't read or write so does he have an excuse if the temperature of this goes up even more

    This man belongs in prison we all know that

    We could take his mum and dad as well, she'd could Nick a few goals while he could supply Charlie

    John Terry...............fantastic player - Awful human being.
    Would never be welcome at Rangers, but how would someone as out of touch as Harry know that?

    Clearly its not his book, some journo has asked him some questions over a few drinks and a 'publishing advance' in a brown envelope and cobbled the resulting gibberish into another embarrassing mound of crap.

    Good to see they are using the international break to do the rounds of radio stations and press junkets to publicise themselves rather than turn round the dire state of the team. If they continue the same way they did against West Ham when Liverpool arrive it could turn very nasty in the ground.

    His book is being serialised in the Daily Mail and those quotes are taken directly from it apparently, apart from the naughty one about lip reading which I couldn't resist throwing in myself...

    Maybe they are doing both? Who knows? Training is not an all day thing.

    You think that a football manager's responsibilities consist solely of taking training? And sitting down for 90 minutes on match day? Is £3m a year enough to pay for this? You hear of other managers constantly watching games at all levels and all over Europe to check out future opposition and potential transfer targets, being a huge presence at youth levels within the club, preparing meticulously for the next game, but also for the future of the club. All we hear about Redknapp is how grateful we should be that he gets up at 5.30 to drive to training (here's an idea, buy a little flat with your £3m, stay over a couple of nights a week. Im sure you have plenty of mates who will take you out to dinner because as we all know you're useless at simple stuff like cooking, Sandra can come up to clean occasionally. Perhaps you'll have more energy for your job) This is his second book in less than a year - how many have Mourinho, Pellegrini, Wenger, Rodgers, Pocchetino produced between them?
