Harry Redknapp claims he is in no rush to enter into contract talks with Tottenham, having been overlooked for the England job.

Redknapp was seen as the favourite to replace Fabio Capello, but the FA opted for Roy Hodgson.

The delay between Capello's departure in February and Hodgson's eventual appointment in May fuelled the fires and Redknapp is critical of the handling of the situation, rather than the appointment.

"It did drag on," Redknapp said. "I don't know why they didn't do it six weeks ago. What was the big problem? West Brom weren't going to go down.

"It was non-stop speculation."

Redknapp claims his commitment to Tottenham never wavered and he is not looking to move on - although he will not be banging on chairman Daniel Levy's door to discuss a new deal.

"I've got no thoughts with moving anywhere else," he said. "I don't feel any different now to a few years ago. I don't feel tired and I've got a good job here.

"But I don't want to make it seem that I am chasing Daniel, asking him to give me a new contract. I'm not."
