Just heard a strong rumour that Harry has left Spurs.

That one has been going on for a while now, got stronger in recent weeks, apparently Levy was hoping 'Arry would get the England job and then he was going after Rodgers.

 

No doubt he'll be hanging out of a car window talking to the presser and then he'll be of to the Sky Sports studio.

 

@Gareth, where does every rumour come from, no doubt it'll be Twitter.

Rumours abound that Harry Redknapp has quit Spurs. We go 6/4 David Moyes to be their next manager. 10/3 Martinez!

 

TalkSport are reporting that Harry Redknapp has resigned. Row over Luka Modrić...? #FootballTweet #THFC

 

Dan Walker ‏@danwalkerbbc

Rumours that Harry Redknapp has left Spurs. He was having talks with Levy yesterday and has been making those 'noises' recently #THFC

 

Oliver Kay ‏@OliverKayTimes

Mail on Sunday reporting that Harry Redknapp is "close to parting company" with Tottenham. Intrigued by this

 

Usually the reporters say nothing until its confirmed.

 

I am doubtful too though, a lot stating he has denied the rumour.

[Canoxa]

What a goal!

[yoječ]

I must say the game was pretty intense. Poland was playing quite good all throughout the match, and Błaszczykowski scored an extraordinary goal. I'm satisfied with the result

[Hodgey.]

Poland and Russia was a good game even though i thought Russia would win. Plus rumors Harry has left Spurs not a bad day for football.

[Crokey]

Redknapp denies resignation rumors shocker. Tracey, 22, Essex says "I didn't think he'd quit, he's doing a good job at Arsenal"

[cactus.]

Blaszczykowski's goal was indeed pretty on the eyes and well taken. Otherwise, this tourny is really lacking in memorable goals thus far. All have been very clinical and routine. boooooooooo

[Waddy]

I still think there is some truth in the Harry rumours.

I dont think he will be Spurs manager next season.

 

Who is this Powell guy UTD have signed from crewe? Anyone know anything about him?

[Hodgey.]

I only really saw him play in the playoffs for Crewe as i dont watch much League Two during the regular season. But from what i saw hes a pretty decent player obviously wont be jumping straight into the first team at United but hes only 18, so they'll develop him much like they did with Welbeck with a few loans here and there. I would of liked Liverpool to have gone after him as he is one to look out for in a few years time.

[Domeux]

but hes only 18

Yep, so he's gonna need plenty of time. Although I've heard nothing but good things about this guy (from united fans).

[jogy]

Tonight Holland - Germany. In Holland there are already humerous comments about the nights game. Saying Germany will be defeated. A draw would be nice. If Denmark wins the game against Portugal and Holland looses theirs its over.

[Hodgey.]

Some good/great games tonight in the Euros. Expect Portugal to beat Denmark then a draw with Holland and Germany. Most of the games so far have been good games liking how this tournament is turning out. (So far)

A draw for Holland would mean that a win against the 'Angstgegner' Portugal is a must. However, I don't see Holland win against the Portugese.

Pretty much everybody was after him, including City, who put in a late bid. Arsenal were another to take their interest a bit further.

 

The kid's good. Obviously he's only played at a relatively low level so far, but from what I've seen he's got the makings of a very good attacking midfielder about him. He's capable of pretty much controlling a game on his own and plays like somebody with much more experience than a couple of years in League Two. Certainly not one to be dropped straight into the first team, but given two or three years and perhaps a loan and he could be sh*t hot.

 

Here's the goal that got twitter and everybody except your gran talking about him.

I wonder if we'll see one of those guys tonight:

 

[jogy]

I hope so. Götze can bring something else to the game. Hope for a win!

[T.Rez]

Am I the only who thinks this record England has against Sweden is silly? I can't understand why we haven't beaten for however many years its been. Sweden are a good team but they've never been great and I feel England have always had the better squad in my lifetime, even now I think our squad is better. I'll be annoyed if we don't get a result against them considering we managed to put on a decent performance against France.

Not really. It's not like international teams meet to play that often.

[AnotherDave]

England beat Sweden 1-0 in November. Albeit it was a friendly, but, yeah, the record of no wins extends to exactly 0 games currently. Before that the last England win was in 1968, apparently, and between then and November there were 12 games (7 draws, 5 defeats). Not a great record by any means, but my money's on and England win on Friday.

[Max]

Sweden do seem to be something of a bogey team for us although I think that's more to do with the fact we've just been drawn in the same groups as them in more competitions than any other team and we've been frankly sh*te for 15 odd years.

[Der_Don]

 

Just saw that now. Didn't know there were riots between Polish and Russians.

[Waddy]

Yeah and the Russian FA have been fined 96k and have a suspended points deduction for Euro2016. WHAT A TERRIBLE PUNISHMENT!!!

[Banks.]

I'm happy that Nick Powell has signed for United. Looks like a good player and the lad is only 18 so he has plenty of time.

[Joaoseinha]

Portugal's gonna play against denmark now.I better get popcorns,a few sodas and a bucket.This is it,all or nothing.Portugal has always been to the quarter finals since 2006.

 

Hoping that Paulo Bento spoke the truth,saying he made the Portuguese more aggressive.

[Waddy]

There will be a major problem if Portugal dont win this one, I can see a battering.

[Dr. John]

Well, I thought only manages get crazy and f*ck up on the ground. People should understand that this is a game. I hope there are no riots or brawl in Spain's matches because I support them. f*ck Germany and Russia.

[OchyGTA]

So you support Spain as well as Chelsea, shocker.....

 

*cough*glory-hunter*cough*

 

Also, it doesn't really make sense that you say football is "only a game" but then in the same statement say "f*ck Germany and Russia".

[Seddo]

Well, I thought only manages get crazy and f*ck up on the ground.

What does that even mean?

 

Pepe recovers from a broken leg to score the opener, what a national hero. At least Meireles has got his bog brush hair style cut.
