Your support makes all the difference.Harry Redknapp says he is “not sure” whether he wants to take the England job and admits it would be “difficult” to make the transition from club boss to international manager.
Redknapp is the overwhelming favourite to fill the vacant England manager's job following the resignation of Fabio Capello.
The Tottenham manager has spent the last month dealing with questions about the position, and a number of high-profile managers and players from within English football have backed the 65-year-old to succeed Capello.
Redknapp has blown hot and cold when asked about the job, admitting it is the "ultimate" position for any English manager while also conceding it would be hard to leave Spurs after three and a half years of success.
"I'm not sure," Redknapp said in an interview with L'Equipe when asked if he would like to manage England.
"I have a very good job at Tottenham today and I like it. But I do not know. We will wait and see."
At 65 years old, Redknapp would be forgiven for wanting to give up his daily gruelling routine of driving 125 miles to Tottenham's training ground, but he says his life at the London club is blissful and admits the challenges facing an international manager are totally different to those at club level.
"When you have a club, you are looking for a striker and you take them. When you're coach, you must do with the players you have in your country," he added.
"If you do not have a good scorer, you have none. And you almost never see the players. Two days all two months: it is very difficult."
