REDKNAPP: SHOW BRUCE SOME RESPECT


Sky Sports

Jamie Redknapp has called for Steve Bruce to be shown more respect as speculation over Mauricio Pochettino replacing him as Newcastle manager mounts.

“People have to have more respect for Steve Bruce because he has done a really good job at Newcastle,” Redknapp told The Football Show.

“Why can’t he be given an opportunity, why can’t Steve Bruce be given some money and the chance to show what he can do?

“He’s never had the opportunity before and there’s nothing to say he couldn’t manage a top-six club, nothing at all. He knows the game inside out.

“Everybody predicted Newcastle would go down this year and he’s done a great job with players that aren’t at the top level.”

They will show him about as much respect as Man City did with Mark Hughes.

Redknapps justbeing naive and a bit silly really, would he be saying the same if it was his money?

No doubt about it that Bruce has done a good job but if they are going to spend big money then they will want a manager players want to come and play for and who has contacts at the top level.

I think this was the mistake Tan made with Malky when he got promoted as well.
