    New England manager

    England clearly need to get rid of Steve "I'm in charge" McLaren but who should replace him?

    They need someone who has managed successfully in one of the three major leagues (England, Spain and Italy) and has international experience, preferably at major tournaments. The right candidate should also understand that the media spotlight will be on them and should have experience at handling them. The right candidate should ideally be available right now and able to start immediately. Also it would help if they were familiar with the English game, knew the players and have had some contact with and experience of handling the labyrinthine decision-making processes of the FA.

    Here's the shortlist:



    .
    Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.



    May the Lord bless this post.

    It's a tough one between options 2 and 3. I think 3 wins it due to having been working more recently and I worry that the game may have moved on since 2 last did anything of note.

      Also, 3 wouldn't cost anything since the FA already pay him.

        I wanted MON from the start and I still do - what he's doing at Villa shows his class as a manager. The FA are turds picking Sven's assistant coach as his successor.

                  I think the FA wanted Venables all along but were aware of the backlash if they appointed him immediately since they got rid of him before for reasons that were not related to the team performances. Since then the FA have been exposed more than once. I wouldn't be at all surprised to see Maclaren ousted and Venables put in charge.

                          Allegedly they've never been seen in the same place at the same time. A little like Michael and La Toya Jackson

                            Serious answer: I'd go back to Glen Hoddle, easily the best England manager since Sir Bobby and possibly better than him. He got sacked because of comments he made about reincarnation. Sven went around having affairs with all unsundry. The reason I'd go for Hoddle is that I think England needs an Englishman in charge and Hoddle is proven at international management and he is older and wiser now.

                              But he still uses the word "them" when he should use "those" instead. The sign of a cretin.

                              Terry Venables with Stuart Pearce as his number 2 is surely the best combination England could go with.
