When Redknapp was at Pompey he wasn't responsible for agreeing fees or negotiating wages. That falls to Storrie (as well t a less extend Guydamak/Mandaric). It is the same at Spurs. Redknapp says who he wants and Daniel Levy secures it within the club's sustainability margins.
I know people would expect me to say this but I think Levy is the best chairman in the league. He's very shrewd, the club is run extremely healthily. Despite not much success to speak of and constant player/manager turnover the club has remained very profitable.According to Forbes,
we had a higher operating income than Liverpool last year. And all this whilst delivering 2 massive training centres on time and budget and organising a complete new stadium.
Pompey would kill for someone like him right now.
