England Football Team - managers job

So who would you choose next then mate ? No fantasy one /has to be someone who you think would actually do the job. Sorry if you have already said but to many posts for me to read mate.

Right now I think the best choice would be Hiddink with a younger guy alongside him

Would be good to see someone like Murphy come away from the studio and work alongside someone like that as well as people like Southgate or even Howe
 
He may have had 100% record but the performance wasn't much better than what Mr Hodgsons sides served up recently.

I actually think this will be a blessing in disguise for England.
Behave, 1 game, impossible to judge,
 
They should get Klinsman, and give him the tools, time and money (if needed) to turn the National team around just as he did with the Germans.
 
I was speaking to a German last week about Klinnsmann. He thought we'd had a close escape with him. Apparently he is not rated in Germany as a coach. The real coaching during his team was done by a Herr Joachim Low. Whatever happened to him.........

It was widely said that Klinnsman was the one who changed the coaching set up, and the whole organisational aspects of the German national team. Low may well have taken the plaudits after but the foundations were laid by Klinnsman. He also did the same thing for the US team.

The biggest issue is the FA have pretty much said the England manager will always be English due to their massive investment in St Georges park. On that basis there's a very small pool of managers to choose from that lacks real quality IMO.

I think it should be the best man for the job regardless of nationality.

If I was in charge I'd do all I could to entice Ancellotti. A proven winner.

If I was in charge and it had to be an Englishman then I think I'd go with Hoddle, the best of a bad bunch.
 
Former Liverpool darling though :thup:

Id rather the FA looked outside the box, regardless of nationalit, but they won't.

Theyll plum for another "Yes-Man"

Of all the ex Liverpool players he was far from a "Liverpool Darling" I tell thee.
 
So prem managers need time to make the team their own,but you expected Sam to transform the team after a few days with the players?

I watched that England game and it looked exactly the same as a Hodgson side, same tactics and same style of play, very pragmatic.

If you watched it and seen something different then enlighten me.
 
I agree, Murphy never got the respect he fully deserved. As a pundit, I actually think he's one of the best. Honest and frank.


Murphy was a very average footballer and every time he looked like being dropped he'd score the winner against United or Everton and that would keep him in the side for another 12 games.

His level was Fulham.
 
The problem lies in the FA's desire ideally for an Englishman for the England side having gone down the Erikson and Capello route. I think there has to be someone out there, not English in my opinion, who could take the team forward and maybe even finally harness their talent into a harmonious glory. I doubt it mind. Southgate does reasonably well and seems the ideal FA fit and the cycle continues again
 
That performance was no different from what Roy served up.

Apart from Antonio and no Barkley, it was same old England. Just my opinion.

Granted it was sh1te, but who knows if he woukd of turned out to be our greatest or worst ever manager, he picked that squad 4 days into the season and any manager and I mean any manager would of picked 90% of the same players until he got his feet under the table, a friendly may of been different but that was a qualifier.

So you agree with me yet still feel the need to defend him?

We're talking about a manager who knows these players very well and his teams have played against them, it's hardly stepping into the unknown.

There was nothing in that performance where you could see very slight improvement in set up or performance. It was a very Hodgson like performance.

Not defending him, didn't want him, so regardless of who was in charge I wouldn't of judged them after 1 game, totally pointless, in my opinion :thup:
