Yes to the first part, no to the second. Hodgson has this this thing that most other anglophone managers do not have - an idea of what football is played like in Europe. And let us face it, we are playing European teams to get anywhere.Quote:

Apparently he has put his nbame in the frame for the job. It's not something i would have expected. Another yesterdays man i suppose.

Quite a few of the people touted are notmanaging/coaching at a top level at present and some have not been at level for some time. Any ideas why that is so?
Jose Mourinho ... a special job for the special one!!
Further endorsed if none of the British nations qualify for the European Championships...Quote:

I would take Brady in a shot. Reckon he'd be very good.
I reckon that I'd be pretty good at the job, unfortunately I don't have anything to back up that statement either. While Brady might have learned from his time at Celtic, he is currently only an Arsenal youth team coach, hardly the qualifications required to succeed..Quote:

I wouldnt like Brady to get the job. As he said himself last night, he's not driven to get results, he's driven to produce players, which he's doing nicely at Arsenal. Brady as the u-21's manager, now that would be ideal. I just dont think he has the experience to do this job.Quote:

I have a new favourite, having gone away and thought about it.
Otto Rehhagel, the Greece manager. He led them to Euro 2004, working with a limited bunch of players and getting the best out of them. Masterminded the downfall of Portugal (twice), France and the Czech Republic and produced possibly the biggest upset in international football history.
After Euro 2008, which Greece look like they will qualify for, I would say he has achieved everything he can there. Especially given that he was the first foreign 'Greek of the Year' in 2004. So our chances of luring him to our sticken footballing nation would be much improved.
He also has experience of club management, in Germany mostly, yet could provide a useful outside perspective.
I don't expect him to get the job, still, he's my choice nevertheless.

Good choice......at least he could knock up some healthy kebabs for Andy Reid, and ween him off the pies!;)Quote:
