Yep.
What international football teams dont need is someone, like pep, whos going to install a footballing ethos. Theres no time for that. It took pep a year to sort city. Day in, day out.
England need someone who can motivate in small spates, get the players to buy in to them in very short spurts.
Klopp fits that bill. But i would say very little chance
I partly disagree with that because lots of international teams have been very well coached and well drilled despite minimal time. even this Spanish team were very well coached in how to play as a team, where to run, understanding their teammates runs and everything.... but it always seems to be an excuse with England that there isn't enough time to do it. these Spanish players are playing all over Europe too but they manage it.
I do agree that it probably is a lot easier to get an international team to play more like Liverpool than City in terms of style, but it's definitely not to say it can't be done.
I think the problem is not the time, it's the players, and I don't think England have the players to really play like Spain did. The likes of Rice are not technical enough in the role he's asked to play and we have a keeper that plays like it's 1993.
So with that in mind, I do think a Klopp approach would be better for England.
