Redknapp not keen on Italian!

agreed

Look at the (then) clubs of the WC06 winning players of Italy: all home based.

not worth the risk

why go for italians? I mean he keeps saying theres no strikers DEFOE, ASHTON, YAKUBU, BELLAMY, ROBERTS, CAMARA, SMITH, BEATIE (lol), MIDO?, EASTWOOD, CROUCH, MARTINS, ANELKA and even KALOU. yes, i know some are rubbish but some are quality. you may think that some wont go but if you offer the right ammount. all i want is another yakubu, and for next season. im sorry but if i see kanu, lualua or even toddy startin next season on the first day i will be very angry..........THE YAK IS BACK?

Et_Tu_P i asked my mate in red top media street and the answer is it has come from us, you, pompey gleamer, me and other pompey web sites, everyone is saying we havent replaced the Yak, you may not believe it but the journos and im given to understand even the players also surf the sites like ours. As for harrys words im not convinced, did you ever see ravanelli play? a geedy ******** but he was good, frequently star of the show. You may also want to consider the amount of times players like Maldini stopped English teams in there tracks, i think it is ridiculous to say that they couldnt do the same on any given saturday, sunday or wednesday afternoon. Those of us who think that Italians cant take the cold weather need to watch a game at the stadio del'alpi on a wet November afternoon, eh by gum la it makes Hull seem tropical .... Also it was an issue of the drinking culture, the italians dont do it and they were frequently ostracised by Premiership team mates for that. Some one remind me was it not an Italian who almost single handedly kept WHUFC in the premiership and also performed perhapse the most gentlemenly act seen for years in the english game, and saved harry's job to boot. I also remember that some years back harry said the same about the french, just before he attempted to buy most of them. Nah ruggers, if i may say with the greates respect Arry's talking a load of boogers

belive me, Eduardo da silva is player for you, he play for Dinamo Zagreb, in croatia national team he is the strongest striker... he played against England in Zagreb 0:2 for Croatia and scored for the first goal, he scored also against Arsenal.... This year he score 52 goals, some of them in Dinamo, some for national team.... but he will maybe to expencive.... you can watch...... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EfXGOGzEAwk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZRHw94ACTpQ&mode=related&search= http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=agUK6C_iuMQ&mode=related&search=

for pompeyrug belive me, he can..... he is miracle... for dinamo played players like robert prosinecki, davor suker, mark viduka, boban..... but none of them isn't score goals so easy like eduardo. HR watched him before but I think that he is to expencive for Pompey, against Russia many managers watched him (juventus, bayern, ajax....) ask Harry what he thinks about Eduardo da Silva or maybe about Luka Modric. don't forget he score against England, Russia, Italy(friendly match), Arsenal (champion league)... he scored in qualification for euro, 6 goals...how many England players scored by now..,.

if he is that good - after all he is brazilian by birth isn't he - then if we could get him, from what i have seen i have liked him, we should... even tho teams like juve, munich and ajax are sniffing around then if 'arry likes him - if the price is right - the fact that we have kranjcar here already could tip things in our favour?

he is a different player to kranjcar tho isn't he - but i am not thinking like that, i just mean that with pompey already having one croatian here - obviously kranjcar - it might help our chances of getting eduardo?

thats true -that he different player, I just wont to say that Eduardo have potential to be a world star, they played together for Dinamo and for U21, U19 and now in first National team. He's price is around 8 mil.euro... He is better more than half of players that you mention in yours analysis (DEFOE, ASHTON, YAKUBU, BELLAMY, ROBERTS, CAMARA, SMITH, BEATIE (lol), MIDO?, EASTWOOD, CROUCH, MARTINS, ANELKA, KALOU)...he isn't from big club and that is the reason why did you don't now much of him... but statistics doesn't lie.

andy croat you used ot think Krunchie was the best player in croatian team, I did read the article at the time of print and it was complimentary
