Safety First!
By: b-man | October 10th, 2007Despite Pompey flying high in 5th place and possesing one of the strongest squads in the league, Harry Redknapp insists that the immediate target must be to reach that magical 40-points mark, thus ensuring Premier League safety.
“What you have got to make sure first and foremost is getting those 40 points to stay in the league and that’s my priority,” he stated. “I don’t look further than the next game and that’s Wigan away - it’s a big game for us.
“Other people may have expectations but I take it as it is. I don’t get carried away. What will be, will be. Once you think you’ve arrived you’re going to be in trouble.
“We’ve had a good little run - the Blackburn result, Burnley, Reading and now Fulham. They are four good wins on the spin and now we just have to keep it going. You can’t take anything for granted.
“West Ham were relegated the year after I left even though they had Di Canio, Kanoute, (Joe) Cole and Carrick in their team. It’s frightening. They were fantastic players.
“I’m just looking at getting those 40 points first, nothing else, nothing at all.”
