in the metro today it had 'eriksson is being partly blamed for the rise in sexual transmited diseases'
he's a bit of dark horse our sven, doesnt seem the type..he always reminds me of Mr Burns but not as bad. But then again who would have though grey john major was knocking off edwina curry nah he shouldnt be sacked..got nowt to do with football
I'm not an Erikson fan, he usually sits and defends a one goal lead which rarely works. Saying that tho, there is no way he should be sacked for this, it is nowt to do with the game and who would replace him?
The only time i have not liked his tactics was against Brazil. But what tactics do you use against Brazzzzil.
big respect for his flings but sack him for his inability to change tactics through games and lack of bottle in subbing beckham when he was playing pants. Hedidnt have a clue against brazil,or portugal, we were robbed by France and totally ouplayed by the swiss first half. Best since venables in not saying anything. in Euro 96 we had home advantage and most host nations normally get to at least the semis so that was saying nowt. Venables built a team to draw most games. Ericson builds a team to defend a 1 goal lead which England cant do. Basically we aint good enough to ever win something we are the perennial quaterfinalists, wouldnt mind Curbishley or Sam Allerdyce as England manager. Mclaren would be tosh and so would steve bruce. Even keegan was better than those 2. If they could get him they should try and get oneil but I dont think he would do it. Having siad that we will probably get to the final in 2006 and get beat on penaltiesoff the germans
It still has to be done on the park. That performance against the Dutch was class. And how unlucky was Gazza. Inches away, bloody Germans.
just think hes losted plot he not playing anywhere near what would our best team simply playning arsenal man utd and chelsea players get back swedon and get someone who knows and wants england to win :evil:
its stupid that they are considering sacking a great coach over his personal life, which should never have got out in the first place, if he wants to get his cock wet thats his business
more than one rubbish. Venables built one of technically the finest England football teams of recent decades. And you will find few who disagree...The performance against the Dutch (as mentioned by someone else) was the finest example of this. Lets be honest we were done on penalty kicks in the Germany game. Anderton hit the post, Gazza an inch away...5 tremendous penalty kicks from the nominated takers. What more could he have done? Venables was the finest tactical brain of his generation
