Becuase he is better than auld "Arry, and we've had final and a semi final under him, he has a good under 21 record. A lesson here will be that he needs t be more daring with his team selection. hardly the end of the world
Mike, it's not just his team selection, it's his football - it's been dire all tournament.
3 games, as opposed to 18 months of good football. so we fire him and start all over again and hpe to get lucky, or we let him learn from the mistakes so we can move on and evolve
But as Jones is saying, it's not just his mistakes in team selection, it's his general tactical approach - sit back, play long ball, create nothing. We can't put that all down to Wilshere's absence, so why did he suddenly change it all if he's been playing good football up till now? He hasn't adapted his team to play without Wilshere/McEachran and all tournament didn't learn from his biggest mistake: Playing long-ball.
Is he really going to learn from his mistakes now? How do we know that when he hasn't after Spain, Ukraine? And will he actually move from long-ball or just rely on the presence of McEachran/Wilshere to play half-decent football?
sit back, play long ball, create nothing
Funny how everyone used to ******* Sven Goran-Eriksson for being ****. Turns out he was actually truly brilliant...
If the next England manager's to be English, there aren't many options...
Let's shortlist;
Redknapp
Pearce
Hodgson
Allardyce
Bruce
Off the top of my head, very little to pick from.
Wut?Lansbury should start over Henderson next game
Wut?

Chris Hughton, Alan Pardew, Neil Warnock, Ian Holloway, Roy Hodgson, Alan Shearer, Brian Laws, Paul Hart, Gary Megson, Phil Brown.
Yep, we're ******.
Aye, though call me crazy, Hughton would probably be my favourite from those, albeit he's majorly un-tested.
Hum. I might be tempted to choose Warnock out of all of them actually.
The FA have really backed themselves into a corner by insisting that the next manager has to be English, considering the dearth of any competent ones around. Worst bit is, no sensible manager will take the England job, it's developing into the biggest poisoned chalice in football.
Could be worse, could be Allardyce.Hence why we should stick with Pearce, and let him evolve and learn with the squad. This tournament is a setback, but he has done plenty of good work and we should give the chance to learn from failure
and not give the job to Harry ******* Redknapp
Phil Brown.
Yep, we're ******.
Could be worse, could be Allardyce.
Though, no chance of Hodgson getting it, after his time at L'pool.
Pep Guardiola for England manager. (H)
