Tonights performance of England was just disgusting to be honest. Croatia didnt even play that well but still managed to beat england convincingly, simply because their main ingredients were tecnique and teamwork. Mcclarens first big test against a decent side and he messes up completetly. I just hope all those Jeff Powell-inspired xenophobic nonsense lovers that suggested that only an Englishman would be any good as the England manager because a foreigner "wouldn't understand" it or have enough "passion", as if understanding and passion are English-only characteristics, are now satisfied. Scolari or Hiddink would have been best for the job yet they lose to this mess of a manager who thinks he can tinker with formations in qualifers as if he is still managing in the premiership with middlesborough.
Mcclaren guy is amatuer. He is out of his depth. TBH I always thought he was out of his depth at Boro too. Now we have a boring and uninventive "old school" Englishman in charge. Why did the FA not hire someone who would make radically needed changes; instead of someone who would say they would make radical changes and then drop one man (or scapegoat?). Mcclaren is just like Sven, he has been his number 2 for last couple of years so we should have never expect him to be n any different. A 'yes sir anything you say sir' man is Mcclaren. If he had the courage, he would drop more players that are not pulling their weight. Firstly lampard who I cant remember the last time he had a good game for england. Mcclarens lovechild Downing shouldnt even had been mentioned putting on a shirt. Even Rooney should have be given a break. If players are not in form in the last 5 or six matches for their club and country then they should be dropped. Pick people on form and not just on name; and I would also pick players who show passion for their country (not just by kissing a badge after scoring).It's not rocket science but is apparently beyond Mr 'Look at my nice white teeth do you want a cup of tea smile' McClaren.
Slaven Bilic said England are 'sh*t' last week, and how well england did to prove him wrong tonight! Until England get a proper manager who isnt all talk and get rid of the overhyped infallables of Lampard, Gerrard, Ashley Cunt(who I hope has damaged his ankle permantley), and get a team together instead of a team of individuals who play waiting for the opposition to bow in submission to the mighty hyped England, then we can expect more disappoint.
