Tiresias Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 oddly I think based on current form the england team could be pretty tasty, a midfield of alli dier and lallana behind a front three of walcott sterling and rashford looks pretty strong Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

afar Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 He is 100% correct. I must admit I didn't actually watch the video Just saw the title, and it's very misleading he's not promoting the likes over PArdew or Howe over Wenger and Ponc... like it's suggesting he's promoting the need to keep old English players in the game, which is fair enough although I really don't care if Lampard or Gerard are going to have an easier time to get their coaching badges !! Who on earth is 'Ponc'? I can't bloody spell his name, the Spuds boss Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmojorisin75 Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 The England manager absolutely should be English, no two ways about it. Unfortunately they're all terrible though so there's little else to do other than look elsewhere. apparently there are two ways about it after all Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 I'd be buzzing with Wenger but he's been here 20 year, otherwise the manager should definitely be English. It's just embarrassing otherwise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 It's far more embarrassing when the manager's Allardyce, Bruce, Southgate or Pardew. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ndegwa Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 as with many the only english coach i'd personally get behind right now would be howe Agreed. I'd give him a long contract and allow him to build a footballing identity, a way of playing that we can feed to the younger age groups too. He took a team of rejects and glorified plumbers through the Football League...and did so in a style that is not only pleasing to watch, but is also effective. If it has to be an English manager then I personally can't see past Howe. Everyone else is an anachronistic footballing relic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 at this stage and after the allardyce debacle i think you've got to go iconic (recent) ex-player to galvanise support a bit and create some excitement, top quality forrin (ancelloti level), or an eddie howe with a 10 year plan in place so it'll be none of them the ex-player thing is a hard one like, nobody stands out for me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I'd give it to Wenger ahead of Howe straight away. I'm not even 100% convinced of Howe like, what he's done with Bournemouth is great, they play decent football and he's still young. But he's obviously not on the same level as the top managers. But then you'd have said the same about Low a decade ago. It's all about the infrastructure to support him, something we said we were sorting out when we hired Hodgson and obviously never did. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt it. Would any of our more 'technical' ex-players (Le Tiss being one)!have the appetite for it? I doubt it. Top quality forrin or young Eddie. It's got to be. What's the point otherwise?

It's all about the infrastructure to support him, something we said we were sorting out when we hired Hodgson and obviously never did. Yep, we can't delude ourselves into thinking that Howe is a futuristic uber-philosopher of football. But he's doing as well as he can,has a great temperament, great footballling style and is young. It's a joke that he's our best domestic choice but it is what it is. Give him the right infrastrucure as you've mentioned and I believe he has the intelligence and diligence to succeed. At the very least he might have a Hughton-like effect of bringing some respect and decorum back to the England setup. The FA would probably give him a 6 month contract and ban him from using St George's Park or something though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
