Redknapp Saga: Why Managing Both Tottenham and England Would Be Bad for Everyone

The Redknapp saga continues.

About a week after Fabio Capello resigned from his position as manager of England, Harry Redknapp is still tipped to be the successor for the unforgiving job.

However, with Redknapp's Tottenham side enjoying the finest season in the club's recent history, employing some of the finest stars in the EPL, and attracting the interest of tons young potential blockbuster transfers, Harry is left with a decision to make.

At Tottenham, he is much more likely to succeed and can further build his CV.

At England, he has a lower chance of success—but if he does, he will be the darling of a nation and have his CV set for the future.

So, should he keep his position at Tottenham or go to England?

Redknapp seems to think there's a third option: dual manager, holding both positions at once through the European Championships.

This may make sense to Harry right now.

After all, he has dreamed of the England position (and was probably planning on taking it in July), but has been quoted as saying that leaving Tottenham at this stage would be "unfair."

But he is wrong.

The thing that would be most unfair for everyone would be for Harry to try this dual position.

Imagine for a second that Redknapp were the manager of both Tottenham and England.

How in the world would he be able to scout players and keep up with his position at Spurs?

I can't count the number of matches I had seen Fabio scouting at over the past four years; it's impossible to attend all of those matches and/or watch all that tape and prepare your club for their upcoming matches.

And even if he somehow does pull it off, a cloud will be hanging over each sets of players: a cloud of doubt as to whether or not their manager is actually looking out for their best interests or his mind is with his other club.

Redknapp will certainly be stretching himself too thin, and both Spurs and England will suffer.

I know you want the best of both worlds, 'Arry, but do us all a favor.

Make a decision.
