Hoddle follows Redknapp out of QPR

Glenn Hoddle has followed Harry Redknapp out of QPR.

Hoddle, the former England manager, has confirmed that he has left his position at Loftus Road following Redknapp's departure.

The 57-year-old, in a statement to Zapsportz.com, said: "I am a bit shocked and surprised, to tell you the truth. We all know football is a results-orientated business but I always felt that given a few more games, Harry could have turned it around down there at the bottom.

"It would have only taken a couple of good results to have achieved that as it is very tight down there.

"But that's football for you. I have enjoyed coming back into coaching and I thanked Harry for giving me that opportunity to tip my toe back into the coaching arena.

"I have enjoyed every minute. I wished him all the best and I do sincerely hope QPR can stay up. I would love the players to turn it around as I have enjoyed working with them - and hope I have improved them."
