Capello Gone

[el matador]

seriously if i was the FA and redknapp said he wanted to wait until the summer then I would ask rafa benitez.

Give him £2m for the job and see what he delivers. Im tellin ya, he would ****ing win it. Might even buy an england shirt and put benitez on the back.

Colin ****** applying for the job live via telephone on SSN!

That seems likely IMO. Would be interesting to see exactly when after February 29th Harry would take over.

2 friendlies lined up on the 26th May (Norway) and the 2nd June (Belgium)

Englands first Euro 2012 game is on the 11th

I would guess they would want him asap but realistically straight after the season finishes

He wasnt suspended v Germany, no. Exposed? They hadnt conceded a goal with Carra on.

Fair enough, thought he was.
So, it was against **** opposittion and he was still exposed.

So? It had been quite clear for a while he's miles ahead of James and Green, and far tougher mentally aswell. It was horrendously handled. He then chooses Green as his number one and drops him for James after one error. Stupid.

Not really, he had just had a season with Birmingham and done good, but that isn't a lot.
Maybe he felt the other players didn't trust Green after that, James is a good keeper though.

I'm not saying there was loads of options, just that he picked the worst one. Crouch ****s all over him for a start.

Crouch was there though, maybe he could have picked him, but there are many reasons which could have affected his choice that we are not privvy to.

You are so weird. Are you genuinely saying he made no mistakes as the manager and draws v Algeria and USA and 3 goal defeats to better teams are all they could expect? Funny how you blame Kenny for all our woes yet Capello is immune to criticism.

No, but I don't think he can take all the blame for Rooney's joke of a performance (best striker in the world my arse) or Green's mistake can he. Nor can he take the blame for the poor youth development and attitudes in this country.
Do I blame Kenny for all our woes? First I have heard of it, I simply think he bought badly in the summer, nothing more.

That would give him very little time before he'd have to submit his squad for the Euros...

Surely he would want his feet under the table for a friendy or two before having to confirm his 23?

He wouldnt get anywhere, the players need their ego's pandered too. 'arry is perfect in that respect. Rafa is obviously a far better manager but it wouldnt work.

Seriously......loving all this revisionism of Capello at the moment on Sky.
They (and there various publicity seeking goons) are making out like he was some halfwit.

[CJ]

Loving how proffesional englishmen on sky talk about how after going foreign with sven and cappello its time to get an english man.

Now is there anything missing, glossed over or ignored there?

Unless he does a bit of both

Like the Faaacking wheeler dealer he is

Incredible......SSN talking head is actually seriously talking to Warnock about the England job.

I'm sure I clicked on the Sports channels...not the comedy one.

Hiddink wants it

Haha! Oh my god, your hypocrisy is unreal. You batter some of Kenny's team selections on here. I'll remember that line when you next criticise the starting line up, I'm assuming that'll be Saturday around 11.45am.

Can't see anyone but Pearce leading the team at Euro's. He is already in the International set up and has no existing club ties. If he does well he gets the gig permanently if he doesn't he is sent back to the kids and they appoint someone in time for 2014 qualification campaign
