Come anticipate Fabio Capello's two years as England manager with me

The FA can't do anything without fucking up, ever. The idea of them subtly manipulating Capello out the door is preposterous.

fabio we've had a meeting, john terry's not the captain anymore. okay mate.

Dunno, this guy Bernstein seems a cut above? (xp)

if you don't think players good enough for epl top three are good enough for england i dunno

^ no misspelling there btw (xp)

thudd lennon parker and y'know whoever ye want on left

marcotti's translation of capello's tv interview is that capello was asked about the fa's decision and if he agreed with it. capello said that he wouldn't have made the same decision because he believes in innocent until proven guilty but that the decision wasn't his to make because the fa deals with matters with regard to player conduct.

Apart from anything else, if the verdict had gone the other way yesterday, the FA would've brought about a situation where Stuart Pearce is the outstanding candidate for the job.

a lot of spurs players are good enough for england because england don't have many good players and whatever manager they choose that will be the case. I don't think gerrard/lampard get consistently picked merely on reputation but because they really are the best of a bad lot, or at least have been over the past decade.

Carrick and Scholes midfield for the Euros then?

          robinson
walker   dawson  king  rooney
           parker
lennon     thudd      Jenas
      crouch    defoe

No place for Konchesky then?

find me a utd fan thinks carrick and scholes are good enough

gerrard and lampard got picked because of their club form, neither of them has performed at international level and there comes a point where you might as well let some other poor schlub have a chance. individual ability not being the only mark of a class player, maybe pick blokes who can follow instructions and play for their team?

Lampard's been better for England than Gerrard?

both pish

i think they've both proven that at club level also.

xxxp to nv

still think becks should come back as captain

Don't watch England intently enough to notice how Lampard performs tbh, Gerrard is more blatantly shite

Sharpe Carrick Scholes Beckham

imo

        
            parker
    gerrard     lampard
lennon                  young
            rooney

Or whoever instead of young

obv tho, i'd have thudd in there instead of lampard once he's back fit

Play them both just for the obesity lols.

Plus Nicky Barmby and I'm sure we can convince Andy Reid he has an English grandmother somewhere.

Harry Redknapp has declared that his focus is Tottenham Hotspur - despite being heavily linked with the England manager's job.

Redknapp told the BBC News Channel that it would not be right to think about the England job.

"I've never thought about it (the England job). They (the FA) will make whatever decision they want to make and hopefully be right for the country."

parker wilshere and thudd is actually my eng central mid, fwiw, and if i could think of a passer as good as thudd i'd happily swap tbh

scholes it is then

First England manager job should be convincing McClean he isn't Irish if Trapp doesn't want him.

Norn Iron surely? Oh hold on, he's from Derry

Capped for NI at U21 level

Redknapp told the BBC News Channel that it would not be right to think about the England job.

"I've never thought about it (the England job). They (the FA) will make whatever decision they want to make and hopefully be right for the country."

= "YES PLZ!!!"

Capped for NI at U21 level

AKA the ROI reserves

FA should nab Hughton now before he signs for Ireland in the post Trapp era and wins them the 2018 world cup.

jol assistant manager

di canio wld hit the lol and edl quota, right?

= "how about i keep my tottenham job, refuse the england job but will often be found being a guest at england's training sessions and have a seat during the england games, unpaid, of course, btw I love my cat to bits"

barry fry, btw, one more time- a thrice-repugant fourth-generation orrible cunt

Eurgh. Sorry but what-the-Germans-have-done or gtfo. Spain have had 1 ridiculously good youth acadamy and 3 or 4 p good ones and is loaded w/ debt so it might just be a one off generation thing and anyone looking at that thinking it is a good idea needs a slap.

we will continue to do what the English have done i.e. fuck all

Well yes. Still don't understand why a team like Wolves aren't looking at Dortmund or Gladbach and seeing a no-brainer freebie of an idea tho.
