Redknapp to take over from Fergie at Man Utd?

Harry says he wants to get on with life after Spurs sack

Harry Redknapp may be out of a job now. He may have also missed out on coaching England.

But, ‘ol’ ’Arry could well be the one who takes up one of the most coveted managerial positions in world football – Manchester United.

For some time now, speculation has been rife over who will take over the reins from Sir Alex Ferguson at Old Trafford.

From Pep Guardiola to Jose Mourinho, names have bandied about.

The question about when Sir Alex will go also hangs in the air, but after last season the talk about a new guard at United has grown louder.

Sir Alex may well look at the likes of Redknapp has his successor given that the recently-sacked Tottenham manager has the experience and the knowledge of the game from the grassroots level up to the highest form of the game.

Rekdnapp’s Tottenham revolution will also have not gone unnoticed and his style of coaching and play seems to have a United tinge in terms of attacking flair.

In an exclusive interview with The Sun on Friday, Redknapp showed the kind of poise needed to manage a club like United.

He said: “I won’t slit my throat over it. I want to get on with my life instead of moping about getting the sack.

“I loved every minute of my time at Spurs and I’ve no regrets whatsoever.

"I don’t feel bitter, nor regretful, there’s no confusion or anger.”

    Harry Redknapp is not going to Man Utd. One good reason, he needs all the money to buy good players, but Man Utd will not allow that. They need to spend some money on referees and Champions League opponents in financial trouble. Besides, I think Harry and Old Trafford favourite Howard Webb do not get along.

    Give me a break, he's nowhere near good enough, the United job isn't a reward for doing OK, it's for those that cannot accept average and apart from the one fa cup harry won with Portsmouth (under favourable conditions). Apart from that, his record is exactly that: Average, at best!
