Tottenham boss Redknapp accused of wrecking career of Liverpool flop Cole
Shaka Hislop reckons Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp wrecked Joe Cole's career!
Cole plays for Lille tonight against Turkish side Trabzonspor in the Champions League after being forced out of Liverpool on loan.
But Hislop reckons current Spurs boss Redknapp set the former England midfielder back years when Cole was a youngster at West Ham United.
Former Hammers No.1 Hislop told the Daily Star: “I know Joe well, we were at West Ham together. I hope he rediscovers his form.
“But the game has moved on so much you have to contribute so much more than just when you’re on the ball.
"Maybe he will get that at Lille.
“I don’t think he got that at West Ham. Harry liked Joe just to express himself. But encouraging him to be himself held him back a bit.”

''Shaky Hislop'' I would put it down to his time at chelski 130k a week, then his lucky break at Bin Dippers, getting sent off in your first game, yeah that was all Harry Redknapp's fault and to think Spurs nearly took him on, that was lucky.......:-)
Anonymous it means work harder for the team within a team framework hence why Jose,Hiddink,Ancelotti,Dalglish and Capello didn't pick him Joe Beleives his own publicity.
