#2 Harry Redknapp
The EPL’s oldest manager was at one point in time considered the front runner for the England job. Tottenham Hotspur fans will surely remember the 2011/12 season when the former Portsmouth, West Ham and Southampton manager guided the side to a fourth place finish.
For Spurs, a fourth place finish was a fantastic result but that season was different. For a long time, Tottenham were well placed to finish third and above their North London rivals Arsenal. However, a string of bad performances coupled with the constant speculation of Redknapp being named the English manager derailed their campaign. Although they finished fourth, they missed out on Champions League football after sixth placed Chelsea won the competition that year.
Over the years, Harry Redknapp had done a decent job with the Saints, the Hammers and Pompey. He won the FA Cup with Portsmouth and also guided Spurs to the the Champions League quarter-finals. For a long time, he was considered as the ideal man to take up the England job and after the resignation of Fabio Capello, speculation was rife that Redknapp would take over.
Roy Hodgson was eventually given the England job and Redknapp left the White Hart Lane job at the beginning of the new season. At present, he manages QPR and is trying to battle relegation from the EPL.
