March 17, 200718 yr Israel are an excellent side and were unbeaten in World Cup qualification is a group which is probably tougher than this one is! Sven WAS a useless manager, there's no denying that. Tactically inept and never had a plan B. However he's nowhere near as bad as the current manager. remind me how many qualification games Sven lost?
March 17, 200718 yr Author remind me how many qualification games Sven lost? So he qualified all the time? Wow. When it came to important games he proved what a bad manager he is. Any idiot should make us qualify for a major championship. Whenever we faced a big team we lost, apart from Argentina and Germany who were $h!te at the time anyway.
March 17, 200718 yr didn't he lose like 4 proper games? technically penalty shootouts go down as draws so Brazil and Northern Ireland
March 17, 200718 yr Author Yet he still failed to meet expectations EVERY time. And he had 3 chances to deliver, more than most England managers!

March 18, 200718 yr When McLaren was announced as manager I was glad, but now i've really changed my opinion. I'd much rather prefer Sven than McLaren now tbh, I mean at least he kind of knew what he was doing and got us to major tournaments! The squad McLaren has picked just lacks something. Some of then names that he's picked are big worldwide household names but they never perform for England like they do on a club level. Here's hoping that he's sacked very soon so we at least have a chance of qualifying for Euro 2008.
March 20, 200718 yr David Nugent has been called up to the England squad to replace Darren Bent! :o Absolutely pathetic - what's wrong with picking Emile Heskey, James Beattie or Leroy Lita instead of someone who has never played top flight football?
March 20, 200718 yr Author Because he's good. I'd agree with picking Lita but Heskey and Beattie have been out of form for years now.
