My Take
Harry Redknapp is the kind of old-school football man I find genuinely endearing. From Poplar to the dugouts of Bournemouth, West Ham, Portsmouth and Tottenham, he built a reputation as a shrewd operator in the transfer market and a fatherly motivator who got the best from his players. Guiding Portsmouth to a Division One title and Premier League survival was no small feat. He is less a cerebral tactician than a man who moves people, and his autobiographies reveal a born storyteller. In an era of data and systems, his warmth and gut instinct feel refreshingly human to me.
