Steve McLaren is now sacked. Question everyone would want to know is who's next? Must he be an Englishman? Will a foreign coach taking over at Soho Sq? Is there any good enough candidates from England for the vacant Manager post? These are all questions that has been asked over and over again.
If the next England Manager shall be an Englishman, I believe there isn't many choices left to be chosen. Probably Terry Venebles, Glenn Hoddle or Alan Curbishley and Sam Allardyce perhaps. Terry and Glenn have managed England before and both had a partial successful spells, and it is unlikely both will return. Alan and Sam is lacking the important international experience, which will make it difficult for English FA to pass the difficult and taxing job to either of them to prevent more shame happened to English National football team.
So that leaves the door open for foreign coaches, which I think is better than their local coaches. At least there is a quality and experience assurance. Among the possible candidates, I particularly like to see Fabio Capello being handed the tasks to bring the glory to England, just like what Marcello Lippi did with Italian National team during last World Cup.
Fabio Capello possessed the required skill in managing a super-pressurised job, and his past track record speaks for itself. He won numbers of champion medals with various teams, and he has been proven a true winner at club stage, and he too possessed a very good inter-personal skills and man-management skills. But he still haven't manage a national team just yet so he is eagerly wanted to take the difficult tasks ahead of him. So this will be his best opportunity to prove himself against the best national teams around. With his experience with various leagues' team, like AC Milan, AC Roma, Real Madrid and Juventus, he is by far the most suitable candidates around available. Marcello Lippi is another, but due to his success with Italian team last year, he is unlikely to do it with another nation just yet.
Other than Fabio Capello, Martin O'Niell and Filipe Scolari may be suitable to lead the Three Lions as well. Both men do possessed the required skills and experience to carryout such job, and it will be interesting to see either of the names mentioned above taking up the vacant England Manager job.
Can't wait for the Euro 2008 and World Cup 2010 Qualifiers to start.
