Tottenham Hotspurs striker Roman Pavlyuchenko had spoken of his frustration at sitting on the bench and he believes that leaving White Hart Lane would be the best choice.
After joining Spurs in 2008, Roman Pavlyuchenko hasn't really settled into the team as much as he would have wanted. There were even rumors that he would leave last summer but he stayed at White Hart Lane.
Now, Mr. Pavlyuchenko has come out and warned Harry Redknapp to play him or lose him at the end of the season. He said that sitting on the bench is something hard for him to accept.
“It is absolutely inconceivable why Redknapp keeps me on the bench – he does not say anything,” ranted the Russian.
"The way I see it, the manager just doesn't trust me and it doesn't matter if I play well, score goals or try my best in training - nothing will make him change his mind about me,'' he said.
"So I'm not going to extend my contract, which expires at the end of next season, and will try to leave the club over the summer transfer window.
"Even when I do play well or score a goal, I don't get a chance in the next game. Quite frankly, I'm fed up with sitting on the bench and waiting for my chances.
"The last two matches I was totally healthy but still didn't get even the smallest chance, even during our team's 4-0 drubbing by Fulham."
Now that Robbie Keane has left the club, Harry Redknapp will have the chance to use Pavlyuchenko more regularly. Redknapp better be doing that or else he might lose his Russian striker at the end of the season.
