10 Funny Quotes From Harry Redknapp

The 2015/2016 Premier League season will begin in August with the conspicuous absence of a certain Harry Redknapp from the touchlines of the English top flight. We'll also be denied seeing 'Arry interviewed through his car window by scoop hungry reporters on transfer deadline day, which is always a highlight.

In the meantime the former Portsmouth, QPR, Tottenham, West Ham, Southampton and Bournemouth manager will continue to work in the media and hopefully drop a few gems like the following:

2. On QPR's struggles in 2013: "I hear that all the time that if they get relegated they want to go because they don't want to play in the Championship, but if they fucking played better, then they would not be in the Championship so that's a load of cobblers."

8. On his sex life: "I sorted out the team formation last night lying in bed with the wife. When your husband's as ugly as me, you'd only want to talk football in bed."
   
9. On not getting the England job: "I wouldn't trust the FA to show me a good manager if their lives depended on it."
