Explain

I think the game here would lose one of its most colourful characters if Harry went to Russia. He tells it like it is and I think Levy will realise that he made a mistake in firing Harry.
If Harry had stayed with Spurs, I think they would have been challenging for the title, or at least win one trophy next season. He may have had his personal problems last season, but I think the whole England saga was one I guess he felt should have been better
and the FA could have been better about it. I often wonder if Harry felt it should havwe been dealt better behind closed door and in private. I think if he went to Russia, British football will be poorer for it.

The thought of Harry telling it how it is makes me laugh. The bloke struggles to string a sentance of truth together, let alone tell anyone how it is.
Remember last season when he was asked if he could possibly win the league with this team? Harry replied no chance and played down their chances. This would be somewhat more believable if he hadn't said during the summer, "I could of won the league with this team" then said to AVB "Go win the league with my team"
After every player that comes through as a bit of a star for another side, Harry is the first to claim he had the chance to, or could have signed that player. This claim is then followed by what I can only describe as bullshit ramblings of a lying crook.

As for the England job last season, the FA didn't ever announce they were interested in Harry, that was his pals in the media. The FA were under no obligation to say one way or another if he was in the frame. In fact it's often frowned upon to declare interest in someone who is contracted to another side.

I hope Ashley stays, I never thought I would say that after what happened a few years ago

I hearing news that West Ham might try and get Carroll on loan from Liverpool. I'm not sure if that would be a good move for Carroll, West Ham play the long ball game that would suit Carroll, but Rodgers likes to play football on the ground. I'm not saying a loan move would happen, it would give him confidence though, if he managed to score a few goals, but if he goes out on loan somewhere, it has to be at a club that plays football on the ground, as it would make it easier for him to adapt to Rodgers style of play when returning back to Liverpool after his loan move

Think Rodgers is trying to light a fire under Andy, like Mourinho did with Benzema a few years back. Don't think he'll be going anywhere. Psychology.

Ah that could be it, trying to gear Carroll up. Carroll will probably battle it out with Borini (I'm fully certain he will be Rodger's first signing) for a place in the first team

Yeah the media jumped all over Rodgers comments the other day. He said Andy knows where stands and is gonna be assessed like every other player when he gets back. No mention of how good a player Rodgers said he was, or how great a lad he is. Like i said before, it's psychology for me, he's setting Carroll the challenge to get to work and slot into his fluent,high tempo,hard working, pressing style of play.

I've got a feeling Suarez and Borini will play either side of Carroll mate.

Could there have been a betting scam in the Premier League?
