Pep is smart enough to turn it down. Southgate has to go but I haven't a clue who can really improve England's chances of winning a tournament.

Potter couldn’t do any worse than the present incumbent.
In fact, I think he’d do a damn site better with the talent at his disposal.

That's not the point I'm making, basically everyone at Brighton, which is a small club over- achieves. I wouldn't judge Potter on his time at Brighton for anyone thinking he should be the next England manager, is my point.I wouldn't call it highly successful if you want to win tournaments. They buy cheap and polish them and sell them for profit. They don't bring many through their Youth Set Up.
If he surrounds himself with the correct Backroom staff then he would really have a chance of succeeding with England.That's not the point I'm making, basically everyone at Brighton, which is a small club over- achieves.

If we went English I'd rather go for Eddie Howe.If he surrounds himself with the correct Backroom staff then he would really have a chance of succeeding with England.
But if the barrel of apples is rotten, then pick one of a tree.
Howe did a decent job at Newcastle but is he really flexible to change when needed? The FA need to start looking to the continent again. Perhaps try and avoid the grifters.If we went English I'd rather go for Eddie Howe.

Not much to reflect though. Southgate played 4-2-3-1 formation with lots of technical players in midfield and instructed Pickford to hoof the ball long over all our players. Southgate is a total moron.As much as I want the Waistcoat out, I think it was ridiculous asking him about his future right after the game.
It’s time for steady reflection, not instant answers.

I thought he did a great job at Bournemouth who were in all sorts of trouble, with transfer bans etc. He seems like a proper hardworking manager, who knows the modern game, he's the only English manager I think I'd go for, which is a sad state of affairs.Howe did a decent job at Newcastle but is he really flexible to change when needed?

Again not the worst of suggestions and he is similar in many ways to Potter. But it is a combination of ego managment, Media managment along with tactical flexabilty. I am not sure they are the very best in that regards.I thought he did a great job at Bournemouth who were in all sorts of trouble, with transfer bans etc. He seems like a proper hardworking manager, who knows the modern game, he's the only English manager I think I'd go for, which is a sad state of affairs.

Are we in agreement we would look abroad for a manager then?Again not the worst of suggestions and he is similar in many ways to Potter. But it is a combination of ego managment, Media managment along with tactical flexabilty. I am not sure they are the very best in that regards.
