asking for trouble now Easy.....

Bet there is a frenzy of action on there keyboards re shouting from the touchline etc.......oooh a bit of emotion shocking

My suggestions were Wenger O'Neill Allardyce or Curbishley.

 

[Silent Bob]

He wont leave Bolton and he has never managed top players

And we'd be playing long balls to Kevin Davies and Peter Crouch.

 

[Easy 10]

He has done more than his predecessors, at least he is getting the players for the friendlies, something nobody in the past managed. He just went down the route of talking to the clubs rather than bitching about it. Good plan, I would think.

Oh bollocks. I've seen plenty of friendlies in the past, been to them meself, where our most, if not all of "top boys" have been playing. And I don't remember there being 7 or 8 substitutions either.

 

[Uncle Buck]

Allardyce.

That sir, says it all. I think we appointed somebody of that ilk back in 1990 and what has Allardyce actually achieved in football management other than got Bolton to the top flight with a load of European has beens. Have they won anything?

its all pointing to the arrogant tosser from SW6 as Svens predessessor

It has been a constant battle to get players at friendlies.

But you are right, fine. It is OK, I am sure you will get your wish of an English manager and we will go backwards again.

Wenger- Can't cut it in Europe as he seems unable t play more thna one way, same would apply for international.
O'Neill- Hoooof (although we might do well still)
Allardyce- Hoooof
Curbishley- Done nothing

Unless we can somehow lure Mourinho from Chelsea Sven is the best man for the job.

Yep, its to Allardyces eternal shame that he hasn't broken the "Big 3" cartel with Bolton Wanderers. Of course you MUST have silverware in the cupboard to prove you're a damn good manager, eh Uncle B. That is the one and only way of measuring how good a manager is.

No itsd how you deal with big players

It does help if they have won something, some knowledge of continental football helps.

Allardyce has achieved squat in football and I doubt that will get to the later rounds of the UEFA Cup this season. With some of the players up there they should be doing well.

sorry I meant sucessor, juggling NSC with absence reporting and guess whats more interesting

Going over old ground here, I just can't be arsed to cut n paste my opinions on why Allardyce would be better than Sven, we've had this argument at least 3 or 4 times now and it'll never reach a conclusion. Have to agree to disagree methinks.

Allardyce has the most cosmopolitan squad in the Prem but has consistently got results and top half of the table finishes in recent years.

He has lured names to the Reebok that fans could only have dreamed of 5 years previously.

I would say that he is just as well qualified to apply for the post as McLaren, if not more so.

The thing that has struck me over the past couple of weeks is how the vast majority of people with an opinion are Sven-bashing, be it MOTD, Sky TV, Talksport, the papers etc.

I think people realise that this is the best England squad we've had for over 30 years and losing to Denmark 4-1 is just not acceptable, hence the alarm bells.

Allardyce just smacks of settling for second best. Bolton do OK under him but win nowt. It is hardly moving things forward.
