Scolari Next England Boss

[french_og]

Apparantly The FA arde in Lisbon and have a gentlemans agreement that he will manage England after the World Cup.

What does people think of this, there is no doubting his track record but apparantly he does not speak much English, not sure how that is going to work in the Changing rooms.

[Esox Lucius]

he does not speak much English

well footballers are not known for their intellect and can probably only just speak decent english themselves :lol:

good gaffer though.

[nick_anarchy]

im happy if he takes the job , hes a winner at the top level and we need that in a maneger

[french_og]

We have got the easiest group in the Euro Qualifiers so it may of been a oportunity for a English manager but I'm happy enough with Scolari, not sure how he will enjoy the english weather and culture though - but hey he could have us playing Brazilian Samba Football!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Will]

He probably won't be able to spend enough time with the players to achieve that and dunno how many English players are technically gifted enough anyway! But you never know, hopefully we'll play more technical and a lot more attacking football under him, if he does take over. Seems the ideal choice to me, let the English coaches prove themselves and develop more.

Plus hes won the world cup, so his pedigree is without question

[jam]

So much for an Englishmen eh?


but aye he'd be the right choice.

[DJsmallpaul]

Innit, i mean the kind of football teams like brazil & portugal play would not transfer over to an english team.

[jam]

He's turned it down

[Esox Lucius]

aye said he wants to manage a 'decent team' :lol:

good lad phil, they wont win it with any gaffer and as soon as they are out their fans & the press would turn against him anyway :cheese:

[jam]

McClaren for England Scolari to the Uefa cup finalists.


jobs a goodun

[Traxx]

Casn anyone blame him turning it down? the press is a ****in joke in this country. What is even more of a joke if they now go back & give it to a english manager.

[Numeric]

the tabloid reaction towards the speculation on Scolari was shocking...

who gives a f**k if it's an Englishman...

Steve Bruce's comments were laughable...

i don't blame Scolari for turning down the position, who would want to be hounded by the English press 24/7...

tabloids = s**te

[piginabush]

[basslinejunkie]

bollox to mclaren.hes turd.

[Traxx]

So are the rest of the English ones.

[djfase]

What mugs the fa now look. Everyone thinks he will be a british man and then all of sudden they announce they want scolari in a statement and he says he interested.

But the very next day he says he doesnt want the job. PRICK

The football world must be laughing and all this before a major tournament.

Happens everytime with the english

[Traxx]

It aint scolari's fault its the ****wit press & joke of a FA in this country. now were not gonna get the best man for the job!

[Will]

Yeah, makes you wonder how much better we might have done if it wasn't for the press in this country, all the England fans should stop buying the tabloids at least, but the worrying thing is, it's what sells papers...

I think McLaren would have to be the leading English candidate, he's actually won something, he's in the Uefa cup final and he knows all the players already. It doesn't seem like there's any other foreigners in the running apart from O'Neil and I don't want him, winning the SPL with Celtic is no great achievement and apart from that he's done no more than McLaren, who's English. And he might yet win the Uefa cup (hopefully)!

Could make Pearce or someone no. 2 and groom him as the next boss...
