Redknapp & Taarabt

[Yousef]

If Harry Redknapp becomase our manager, what do you think will happen to Adel Taarabt? We all know Harry forced him out of Spurs.

[Frode]

Was thinking the same thing. He is a completely different player now though

[Robsondinho]

If Harry comes in and bombs out Adel, it would be a personal issue. At Spurs Adel was young and Harry had the midfield he did. With us Adel is one of our only shining lights, we don't have Modric etc to keep him out.

did Redknapp sign Adel for Tottenham?

[Shania]

I think so, ArticHoop.

Here is an interesting article from last year

Redknapp did not sign Taarabt. He went to Tottenham after speaking with Damien Comolli (director of football for Tottenham). He originally wanted to go to Arsenal (when Damien Comolli was there) and after speaking to his friend Armand Traore but when to Tottenham after Comolli moved there.

I wouldn't think Harry has any issue with Adel unless Adel threw his toys out the pram, which is quite possible as was more petulent then than he is now.

Harry didn't play him much becasue he had a wealth of talent, and it wasn't just adel that got overlooked. Players such as Dos Santos, very similar to Adel, never got a look in either.

Have a feeling Harry might play Adel in centre midfield with either Ale or Granero. I also think he might move Traore to left wing. He did something similar with Bale and Modric.

Taarabt has grown up a bit since then and with about 100 appearances he is no longer a raw kid.

I think this and the fact that he doesn't have the midfield to choose from that he did when Adel was a youngster at Spurs means Harry will rate him here! So Harry is coming?

Dunno. Looked out my window. No sight of him.

Redknapp isn't even manager and already Taarabt is out the door? If Adel showboats but doesn't produce, then of course Redknapp will drop him. Any manager is going to do that though. His coaching staff may get the best out of Adel who knows? If he even comes.

Don't know why there's always negativity involved with our club.
