Wouldn't fancy this bloke. I think ruben sosa's list of his 'achievements' says it all. Got a few results in diddy tournaments that are there for the taking. Forget the world cup for reasons outlined above , home team etc.
As Neil (i think) said, its about qualifying from Europe, and I don't think this lad has the right CV.
Trousier - a big NO from me.
The Artist currenlty known as Omar? Why is it a big no from you Bottle ?
Klinnsman got crucified by the German press for the same thing but still managed to do ok.Quote:

Not sure he'd have the respect of the players either.
I don't like potential employees going 'hey, I'm available!' to boot.
Living in Morrocco I doubt he'd be in england every week watching our 30-35 potential squad members and monitoring their progress.
He doesn't tick enough boxes for me, even though I do prefer the continental choice, and I think there are managers out there with better and more relevant CV's. (Jol, houllier, Hodgson, even O'Leary)
I daren't say anything about religion.
I don't like the look of him either.
for what its worth, he has an article about international management in the guardian today

i dont rate him as a candidate as all, mainly due to his lack of european managerial experience and this hasnt changed my mind.
I'm not suggesting an essay should be part of the interview process but Hodgson's piece is far more impressive than Troussier's (cue childish giggles). Did Troussier even really say anything? I thought some of the punters' smartarse replies were funny.
No way Troussier.
Apparently he's now the national manager of Benin for their CAN campaign in January.
I think the buyout clause there would be a bit too much for the FAI!
