Harry Redknapp Good Quotations

We had a very good first half, got careless in the second, but in fairness to Portsmouth they never gave in.

He's got pace, ability and great close control. He's a good kid with a level head.

Jamie Ashdown has been great for me - and having someone so experienced around can only bring him on because he is a very good young goalkeeper in a difficult situation.

Nathan made a good start and got a goal. He's quick and lively and he has got a chance.

When Milan spoke with me and told me about this guy, I never asked for any assurances. The chairman just said 'I'm looking to do something with someone Harry. It's going to be good for the club, they desperately want you this that and the other', so I said 'that's fine'. It sounds as if he will be exciting for the club.

I've not discussed it with Milan yet. I don't know where it's at yet. But if someone's going to come in and we are going to be able to improve the playing squad, which we need to do, it's got to be good for the football club.

Draws are no good at the moment. It was a game where we really needed to look to attack.

It was a good time to play them, but what a run by us and what a great situation we are in now. The players are up for it and so are our supporters, but we all know there could be a few twists and turns yet. Birmingham could beat Aston Villa and I'll suffer watching that. It ain't over yet.

I need them all over the next four games. But the good thing is that not many of the new players are on long-term contracts. We need to bring some players in who are going to make us a better team.

The good thing is we are still in there and still trying (to sign him). The chairman is working on it and I hope we can get him.
