New England Manager thread

We need a winner. Someone a bit ruthless and not someone just sacked for negative play.

Who should lead the rebuild from here?

[greygoose]

No one, there just aren't good enough players available at the moment. A good English manager would suffice at low wages without wasting money with no hope of a return.

At 33-1 I'm down the bookies in the am to drop a £5 on Tony Pullis.

Even he can't revive that lot.

I'm sure it's every Welshman's dream to manage England.

I'm surprised the odds are that short!

Steve McClaren?

What we need are better players.

[Fittster]

The players aren't good enough to win anything, so we need a manager who will at least be entertaining in the press conferences, 'arry or Ian Holloway.

George RR Martin, they win or they die.

Greg Dyke says Woy is staying until 2016.

[RemyMartin]

Mike Bassett. 4-4-2 every game.

Benson and Hedges up front.

Stevie Wonder?

I doubt he'd be interested right now but we could do worse than look at Roberto Martinez.

Plays good football, has got more than the sum of its parts from every team he has managed and has spent a lot of his career in this country, meaning his knowledge of the English game is second to none.

Latest odds;

Happy Harry 6-1 fav

Gary Neville (gwadhelpus) 8-1
Jose 8-1

Pep 10-1
Brendon 10-1

Arsene 14-1
Psycho 14-1
Alan Pardew (gwadhelpus) 14-1

Hoddle (no chance) 16-1
Moyes ( ) 16-1
Alladyce (gwadhelpus) 16-1

Curbs 20-1
Beckham ( ) 20-1

After that you really are in Mike Bassett land (although I still think Pullis is worth a punt at 33-1.)

Sort the coaching and training of young players, along with a change in footballing culture generally and a nerfing of the power of the Premier League first before contemplating the manager merry go round.

Woy might as well stay. No one is going to make England into world beaters. With the lack of talent available England should be happy just to qualify for world and euro finals, anything else being a bonus. They happened to lose two games on the trot, but that can happen to anyone despite their best efforts. It's not a disaster, but a realistic expectation from an England team against the quality and/or spirit of most of the teams at a World cup.

I think the only team Bobby Martinez would leave Everton for would be a better one. Not England

It's about a whole lot more than a manager. If you'd had Mourinho in charge we'd probably still be in the tournament but he'd probably have parked the bus/played very negatively to keep us in it.

Until they fix the system we're fked.....they need to sort out a winter break and get much better coaches in abundance.

The players are coming through a system which is flawed with a few exceptions. The only club side in England which appears capable of producing quality players is Southampton....Bale, Walcott, The Ox, Shaw. It's not a coincidence. Behind them are I suppose Arsenal and Man Utd. Club's like Chelsea are a disgrace....I think Terry is the last player to come through the youth system there.
