I agree, in pure logic terms he is the best option, assuming Harry is now really only any good for the local bars of Poole
I wonder whether on his past record if Redknapp had got the job he would have managed to leave the FA bankrupt?

Hopefully everyone waits to judge him until the WC in 2018, qualifying isn't worthy of judging someone unless they fail to qualify.

About as good as we can expect. The problem isn't the manager, its having players that may be good in the English league but most would spectacularly fail in other top leagues. You can put lipstick on a pig but its still a pig.

They need to stop being paid to play for their country too!

I thought some years ago they had agreed to give the basic fee to charity.

He will bring some much needed organisation, I don't think he would take any shit either. He will set out a simple yet effective system. I don't agree with his footballing philosophy but I can see why this appointment makes sense.

When they're paid as much as they are, not getting paid to play for England won't make a blind bit of difference. The fact that they earn so much and are pampered the way they are means fuck all will change really. Its their mind set which is all wrong.

Turner?? I assume you mean Taylor??
Just out of interest who would you have given the job to?
Yeah Taylor, my choice would of been Hoddle/ Howe backed up by 3/4 academy managers. We do have some quality players out there but in general not used by their paymasters.

Yeah they have been since the Nevilles started it. They said in one of the Euro matches all appearance fees go into the charity pot still.

It's interesting that Spain have appointed Julen Lopetegui to replace Del Bosque....he's been an age group coach, up to U 21's, so will have worked with the players coming through. It's a way of doing things, but I don't think it would work for England.

thats an assumption of course- if your talking about england over the last 10 years then players like Rooney, Beckham, Campbell, Lampard, Gerard, Terry, Ferdinand, A Cole in would have found a place in any team at the time. this current lot maybe over hyped but england have had some of the best players in europe in years gone by and its not made a difference to the international results.

Most of them would have been total shit in a different league. Beckham did ok. Ferdinand and Campbell may have been ok. Rooney and Gerrard playing in the Spanish or Italian league makes me laugh. We delude ourselves.
