Next England manager?

[Pinkie]

Seems a joke steve bruce and eddie howe are favs ahead of glenn hoddle! for me should be hoddle,but sams no nonsense bits good!

Portugal's manager never managed in the Champions League - hasn't seemed to be an issue for him.

I don't think England should be taking chances right now, they have to get it right. And I wasn't convinced by Portugal at any stage of the competition, they struggled in their group and part of that was down to tactics.

Italy had some great tactical moments, and the German switch to 4-3-3 vs France gave them total domination, they got everything except the result. That happens. It's a mistake to look at the winners of a competition and think that's the way forward.

Think Venables deserved to get sacked for saying something so stupid, doesn't matter whether he was the best manager or the worst. If he said racial comments then you expect him to be sacked so saying something about disabled should be treated as the same standard. Anyway my pick would be Eddie Howe. Think his lack of experience goes in his favour, not been tainted with big stars and egos etc. He would pick the best team rather than the best players

Do you mean Hoddle? Venables was canned because the FA was scared of skeletons in his closet...

I thought he was sacked because he wanted more.

Vidic? He seems to be a winner and knows English football quite well.

[Hertford Hoop]

Vidic no chance IMO

Point is Champions League management doesn't guarantee success. Wouldn't say Joachim Low has a notable Champions League record either.

BBC confirming, official statement next 24 hours.

Sam just about kept WHU up and then Bilic turns the same squad - plus a couple of judicious additions - top 4 material.

They've got it wrong again.

Of course they have. It's the FA - they always fark it up.

[BFG]

He'll do ok, I'm hoping he won't be picking the side on names, as most others do.

[West Acton]

The right man and about time

[Hertford Hoop]

He does play with a system which we have lacked for years. Not everyone's cup of tea but then who else was even interested? Always left his sides better off than they were when he took them over, so expect us to beat Malta and Andorra some time soon.

Might be a real success at international football, good luck to him
