Great Gossip From The Lane

Wednesday, 12 November 08, 07:55 AM ยท Posted by HarryHotspur

 

It's all upbeat when it comes to 'Arry so far. And with the revitalised performances he's been serving up only rightly so.

Here's some gold from within the hallowed walls that may go some way to explaining where the feel good factor has come from.

In one of his first gatherings with the players, 'Arry said, "You boys look hungry" ...and proceeded to plant a bottle of ketchup on the table.

Huddlestone is being kept on a slightly shorter leash as 'Arry is determind to keep him 'lean and mean'.

This backs up what I was hearing from another source recently who told me that the Ramos food regime was so oppressive that a number of players were on more than one occasion sneaking off to a McDonalds after training.

'Arry was dumbfounded by the atmosphere in the dressing room. He felt the banter was 'criminal' and took immeadiate action. He instructed Pavlyuchenko and Modric to 'start taking the piss' out of the English players.

On player development some great news!

Lennon has been told not to worry about scoring. 'Arry wants all his attention on his final ball.

Bentley is well regarded. 'Arry sees him almost in the Ronaldo mould - going past players and the dead ball specialist.

Gareth Bale has had a bit of an earful. His development is a key concern. 'Arry is more than aware he hasn't been producing like he was.

Corluka has really caught 'Arry's eye and his progress viewed as a real positive. Hutton has not made such a good first impression but still very much being worked on.

That's all good in my book.

Viva 'Arry.

Harry, I see you havent put the Redknap / Pavulenko quote from the Liverpoo game down the right hand side of your page in the legendary quotes list. Surely that "I just told his translator to tell him to f**kin' run about a bit" quote is one of the best of the bunch!!

COYS!

I love this kind of back room whispering. If it's true its genius, and dare I say probably something all of us would've done if we'd been in charge. Viva la Heinz!!!

If Lennon needs to be told to concentrate on his final ball, then there's no hope for him nor us.

Love gossip & Harrys is edible... solid. Why did Aarons Dad not call him John? That would have confused the Puds!

& i believe all of that.

Nah Arrys best so far is his response to a reporter asking Arry what he thought about Wenkas comments on other teams kicking his boys of the park... Arry said i dunno my missus was making tea i didnt see it!

'Arry should forcibly shave Bale's head and tell him he's a footballer not a model for monkey monthly.

If Bale then continues to sulk/underperform, make him eat hair clips (with or without ketchup).

You know it's going to be a bad day when an Australian student named Jamie calls you a nancy.

Are you exiled?

I actually think we'll go through tonight, just.

H, I think the above just shows how management is about getting the best out of your team. Arry has just let the boys relax a bit, lightened the mood and let them enjoy playing football again. Its not rocket science although its suprising how many people seem to want to turn it into something far more complex.

Keep it simple, enjoy yourself, pass, move - nuff said.

ps Not sure the Mrs will be happy with me using her bedroom snap! ;)

Is Baler the 19 year old that was showing off his new Ferrari, as Gus hinted at in his scathing interview.

IMO the problem that can be faced with youngsters is that they easily lose their focus. Yes they're cheaper but some of them get it far too easy and they're not focussed on achieving. Once they get into their mid-late 20's you can see that they're more up for winning stuff and the hunger to achieve something is there.

Baler started off well for us, but he's lost his way. Doesn't help that he can't currently navigate the way back due to his poncy monkey hair. Its a crying shame that.

That's what I was thinking. I'm pretty sure he'll come good again, but at the moment there's a lot going on in his head and I'm not sure any of it is football related.

Ginge, is that the same missus that done one. If so, I'd say you've had a result mate. ;)

Because you don't have a childish sense of humour like me!
That is all fab news on player managing and nothing less than I expected from Harry. I'd heard the fact that Harry had put Ketchup back on the table and assumed it was a metaphor and not literal!
I genuinely think we should stick a B-side out tonight, Gomes, Gunter, Dawson, Rocha, Gilberto, Bostock, Ghaly, Jimmy Tarrabt, Zakora, Peckhart, Cambell and see what happens. Focus on league then UEFA? Discuss...
