The qualification phase for tournaments is also a procession so effectively you've 2 months work every two years. Nah its gone, there's 1 maybe 2 top managers in international football The likes of west ham if they got rid of moyes next summer would be paying as much as england And the part time thing is a negative, means they don't spend enough time with the players to make it work, I dont think unai, klopp, pep etc would be good international managers, they can't live it day to day in the same way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that's it "failure" he's probably close to being our most successful manager in terms of tournaments (without winning obviously) win, percentages, all sorts of stats that don't involve watching his football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The next England manager will be Frank Lampard.

I think it's more motivation, you need nous to set the team up in the right way, the right players at the right time in the right positions but after that just get them happy, fire them up and send them out there At best Southgate's England were just kick and rush, they were never tactically sound* or good in central midfield I actually redknapp would have been alright for England, never the best coach but I think the players would have played with a smile and at least wanted to be there *I'll give him the set pieces in 2018,not sure why that disappeared, we nailed them in that tournament Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MakemineVanilla Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 Judging by tonight's performance, no one could accuse England of having a surplus of players worthy of a cap. The unforced-error count was beyond belief and the referee had a pretty high score of his own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maguire is the big problem. The sooner he's out the better. Sure he can hear a ball, but he can't play out. All the top teams in Europe play out. All forward play starts from him and he just can't do it. The difference between him and Pau is lightyears Every time Maguire tried a forward pass an angel gets gonhorrea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HanoiVillan Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 Gave credit where it was due after the Italy game, but this was a very deflating international break. Hard to motivate players when the job is clearly already done, but that seems like all the more reason to be a bit more bold in selection and tactics, give players individual targets to achieve and I don't see much evidence of that apart from Trent (who seems to have flubbed the midfield audition anyway). Poor treatment of Konsa as well, and all the more infuriating when you see Maguire just shoving a guy over in the area after falling over his feet, after gifting the ball away with a howler of a pass. When he's bad he's an absolute **** carthorse. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
