I'd like to see the Special One take the job but I clearly have no idea who is going to be McLaren's successor!

I think MON will get the job in the end, but I'd be more than happy with Jose, Jol or Stuart Pearce. Harry Redknapp wouldn't be too bad either.

I do not want Sam Allerdyce, or any Scottish manager!

QUOTE
I would be interested in England job, Capello says

MILAN, Nov 22 (Reuters) - Former Real Madrid coach Fabio Capello has said he would be interested in the England manager's job.

England failed to qualify for Euro 2008 after losing 3-2 at home to Croatia on Wednesday and coach Steve McClaren is expected to be sacked.

The 61-year-old Capello, who achieved huge success with AC Milan in the 1990s and also won Italian titles with Juventus and AS Roma, has often spoken of his desire to coach England.

"It would be a beautiful challenge. I am the right age. It is a battle," Capello told Thursday's Gazzetta dello Sport.

The Italian was dismissed as Real coach at the end of last season despite winning the Spanish title and is now working as a commentator for Italy's Rai television.
He is well aware of England's problems, however.

"There are too many foreign players and the players are used to another way of playing," he said of England while commentating on Italy's 3-1 win over Faroe Islands on Wednesday.

Former Chelsea coach Jose Mourinho is the bookmakers' favourite if McClaren is sacked. (Writing by Mark Meadows; Editing by Ossian Shine)

He's a top manager, dunno about him for England though.

It's an unsourced statement so no idea where it's from or if it's accurate, but there are a couple of places in the less reliable Italian press quoting Martin O'Neill as having turned down the England job.

EDIT: I know this isn't precisely related to the poll, but I think that Barwick (and some of the other 'leaders' at the FA) should also resign. IMO, for the good of the game in England, the whole setup needs to be rebuilt.

Hopefully it's true, but I'm still trying to find an explination as to why MON flew to New York to meet with Mr. lerner recently, hopefully it's completely un-related.

I think I had better give Steve McLaren a little bit of credit after I just saw his interview. There were many excuses he could have used, like the fact that 8 regular starters didn't start last night, the ridiculous amount of injured he's had, but he never said anything like that. He started off on fire as manager, crushing the European Champions 4-0 in his first game, shame it went down hill from there.

Apparently Harry Redknapp is also interested in the job, good news.

Capello for England ?! (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) Sure he might be interested, but he is not the coach for knock-out competitions. For that, you need someone like Carlo or Hiddink ...


My bet would be either O'Neil or Shearer ... Seeing as they both know the English game well ..

I don't think the FA have much to do with this... no one has the balls to oppose to the EPL people and the way they run the league.

Don't make it sound like you beat some super team... Greece are the team that won the '04 Euro championship but they were certainly not the best team in Europe and were also in a bad shape at the time. Then again, it was England's failure to win the weaker teams that cost them the qualification...

It was a very good result, but meant nothing since it was a friendly.

O'Neill's been dismissing some of Villa's transfer speculation, but says "He's looking at loads of players, and wants to bring the best he can in, in January" Sounds to me like he's staying put.

I've never felt as good about the team for now and the future as I have under MON. He's well respected and the press love him, he'd be a huge loss. Not to mention how he's bought on some of our players. I'm sh!tting it to be honest. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

I agree with Misha on this one, Stewie Griffin is the way to go!
