In case you didn't know... Kanu had heart surgery in the late 90's. Which made him start up "Kanu Heart Foundation" in Nigeria 🇳🇬. Kanu is a Proper legend. Won the Champins league in '95 with Ajax, Olympics for Nigeria in '96 and was King of London while at Arsenal for years (Chelsea FC can confirm that).. Proper Legend I tell ya.
That's what makes it so wrong that Harry "wheeler dealer" Redknapp could say "if he plays badly we'll fail him on his medical" like it's some kind of joke.
Kanu still lives in North London. He and his family were sat next to me in Miracles restaurant in Cockfosters this one time. It was one of his daughter’s birthday. Many other diners approached him for a selfie, and he happily obliged them all. He seemed a really nice and very humble guy. When she was blowing out the candles on her birthday cake, he sang to his daughter “And may the Lord bless you.” Well may the Lord bless all of his family. And I say all this as a die hard Yiddo.

No the team did, did kanu score in all the rounds, did he pass the ball to himself for an assist, did he block or save everyshot. Did he make every important tackle did he fuck
@@jimmys8483 yeah that too, as a team mate he should be fully aware of Kanu's capabilities....hence why the manager at the time Harry asked his opinion, not that it mattered in the end. Harry still went with his gut cause unlike Adams he rated Kanu's efforts at Arsenal.
He went through the ranks and his life has been documented for all. from the under 17s in 1993. if he was 53 when he retired,,,,then he must be a legend!!!

The professional Game is riddled with corruption, top to bottom. Managers who still do the commercial side of the job, EG Sam Allardyce, have a dodgy image. Clubs have directors of football doing the naughty deals nowadays, so the face they present to their sponsors' customers can be squeaky clean. If the DoF is caught doing the necessary, he can carry the can, have his ceremonial sacking and life goes on.

Yeah that hattrick in 99 against Chelsea still rankles.
Gianfranco Zola was the king of London back in them days
@@KTBFFH He was very good too. I'd say there were a few challengers to the crown around this time.

Cockfosters? Dear God, that's some name.
Dirty Harry. "if he plays bad we'll fail him on the medical after the game" wheeler dealer 😂 🤣

Kanu won Portsmouth the fa cup anyway

Says a lot about a player when he is revered everywhere he goes. What a legend.
Best story teller ever.can listen to Harry all day.
Harry is a good story teller
Kanu. What a player
Harry must have his own podcast and tell all his stories UNCENSORED
Harry a Legend 😀
Still miss Kanu . Physical and brilliant on the ball . Can finish it well aswell
Absolutely love Harry's tales... be them tall or short😊
Nwankwo. . What a man!
Both Harry and Kanu legends
Harry Redknapp is a legend
King Kanu 👑 was a LEGEND
Kanu is still not 48
man's at least 55 fr
He's a 148😂
Sad to hear Adams wasn’t keen. Goes to show some people don’t like you even when they smile to your face. So called teammates at Arsenal.
Because you’re friends shouldn’t mean you think they’re a good signing. 🙈
But Kanu proved to be more than a good signing for Portsmouth.
Point being Adam all along didn't think much of Kanu at Arsenal
@@thedrip4921 no your point was you suggesting he should be keen on Kanu because they were team mates.
@@jimmys8483 yeah that too, as a team mate he should be fully aware of Kanu's capabilities....hence why the manager at the time Harry asked his opinion, not that it mattered in the end. Harry still went with his gut cause unlike Adams he rated Kanu's efforts at Arsenal.
@@thedrip4921 you’re missing the only point I’m making. Just because someone is or have been teammates doesn’t mean they have to rate the player 🙈.
Remember the good old days?
One of my favourite Arsenal players
Whenever he would score goals they would always be worldies
Never just tap ins
Great player
Yes Harry, I am now convinced. After hearing this, you are not a wheeler dealer.
That’s bs though. “It’s not a trial” when really it was…
We love Harry ❤️🏴👍
“I love to play” - Kanu 2006
Loved Kanu ❤
We should make a movie for Harry
Directed by Guy Ritchie.
triffic story
Kanu top top playa along with neeeko
Ridiculously skillful player, probably more suited to a Harlem Globetrotters team.
Everybody knows Kanu is older than what he claims to be.
is he.so you believe he was 53 years old when he retired from football?are you people ok?
He went through the ranks and his life has been documented for all. from the under 17s in 1993. if he was 53 when he retired,,,,then he must be a legend!!!
What objective proof do you have to support your statement that “Everybody knows Kanu is older than what he claims to be?
@@maltlickytexas my friend from Cameroon uswd to say whatever age a west African sportsman gives, add 4 years. Turns out its easier for European countries especially France to grant work permits for sports if you are 16 years and below
Is he still playing?
I use to love him in fifa 98
Harry's foreign accent is the same regardless of the nationality he's doing and impression of.
Legend has it he was 50...
alcoholics said that
Don't let the truth come in the way of a good story
Why did he think he's 48? 🤣🤣🤣
King Kanu 🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵
Look at how he treated Mwaruwaru, what a stupid and tasteless joke
he`s 48 LMAO
Adams wont ever be as good as kanu...that's why he said that...
Yes, this makes perfect sense...bellend
Kanu is a Striker. Of course Adam's would not be as good as him. He is a defender
Good Joke!
Legend KANU
Kanu was 30 when he signed for Portsmouth
It was a joke 🙈

Harry should have joined comedy
One is a great manager the other one was a great player and other than that just a football pundit?
Tony Adams is a hater. I wonder as to why he failed measurably as a manager.
Harry expert at exaggerating stories.
This is probably a lie like most of Arry's stories.

The media love him but fans from most of his ex clubs hate him and see him as corrupt and a fraud..

Most managers are self-serving. They have to be stopped from ruining the club by a strong owner/CEO.
