The FA approached Pep, who according to the majority of the British sports media is one of the most corrupt managers in the game, and yet somehow they'd all be happy if he was appointed England Manger?Surely they've already approached Pep and he's told them to stick it which is pleasing but I ain't having a German as England manager. It's embarrassing.
Yep. They were all wetting their knickers with excitement about getting a foreign manager yesterday, just not the one they've ended up with.It's like the media are more annoyed that Pep didn't take the England job, it's not like England have never had a foreign manager before.
We had "success" in spite of Southgate, not because of him. We also lost every time we faced a good side. You could argue that a better manager, a manager with a CV that is good enough for the job, would have had more tactical nous to get us over the line. I am English, can I have the job then?Klopp is a million times the manager Tuchel is but I still wouldn't support it.
Did you expect Southgate to do as well as he did? International football isn't club football. Just go back and list the world cup winning managers. Were they all successful club managers? The England team should be managed by an Englishman. We're not minnows.
How's Bluehammer taking this?
Absolutely this, will be hated no matter what. Such is the norm nowadays.
I’m happy with this appointment, won league titles abroad , won champions league - FA always accused of lacking ambition with appointments, proving those wrong again.
Good appointment.
