Portsmouth boss Redknapp furious over Mido taunts
tribalfooball.com - September 30, 2006
Portsmouth boss Harry Redknapp has blasted Tottenham's Mido after the Egyptian described Sol Campbell as a soft touch.
Mido said: "Portsmouth is a really important game for us. But they have Sol Campbell at the back and he is the easiest defender I have ever played against. I am not scared of him."
Redknapp signed Campbell from Arsenal on a free transfer in the summer in the face of stiff competition from home and abroad.
And the former England defender, 32, has been outstanding in Pompey's superb start to the season, which has seen them concede just one goal in six league games.
Redknapp blasted: "What an arrogant thing to say.
"It's an insult coming from somebody who has not achieved as much as Sol has in his career.
"It shows a total lack of respect and those comments will embarrass every footballer in the game as we don't talk like that about fellow pros.
"I'm sure his manager at Tottenham will also be embarrassed when he reads those remarks as it shows Mido has no real feeling for the game over here.
"One thing is for certain, I won't have to say too much to my lads in the dressing room at Tottenham.
"I'll just stick a newspaper cutting up on the wall and that will do for me."
Mido has yet to hit the target for Spurs this season but will start against Pompey in the absence of injured Bulgarian Dimitar Berbatov.
The Egyptian ace added: "I came to Tottenham because I know I can score goals for the team - but I have only been back here for four games.
"I have never had any doubts that I would come back here and score. I am disappointed with some of the chances I have missed but I am still confident."
