According to an article in today's Daily Telegraph, the FA are considering Rodgers as an option to replace Roy Hodgson should they not renew his contract. Do these people have any idea about football, the only relative success Rodgers had was when he inherited a decent Swansea side built by Roberto Martinez, he failed miserably at Watford, Reading and Liverpool and yet the FA and Greg Dyke still consider hiring him. Words fail me

Not sure coming within a game or 2 of winning the Premier League can be considered a failure, but apart from that, I agree that he probably shouldn't get the job. I am struggling, however, to think of a suitable candidate. Eddie Howe perhaps?

Eddie Howe has nowhere near proved himself for international management.

Strange choice considering hes not English, but hes better than Woy and theres not a whole lot of suitable candidates.
Liverpoo was too big for him maybe but hes still a decent manager

He'd be the one I'd go for.
He isn't entrenched in any one tactical system, he's effective at bringing young English players through.
Massive ego, bit of a tit, not perfect, but a young manager with his own ideas who very nearly did what no other manager has done for 25 years at Liverpool.
I think he's what the job needs.
He's suddenly being treated as if he's Bryan Robson, presumably by the same people who thought a bad time at QPR erased all the good work Hughes did elsewhere.

We always alternate English/Foreigner these days as each type gets the blame for our lack of success.
Keegan (English) Sven (Swede) McLaren (English with a bit of Dutch!) Fabio (Italian) Hodgson(English) ...foreigner next

Why not. Can't be or do any worse than any other England manager in recent years.

Why not. Can't be or do any worse than any other England manager in recent years. because he has wasted millions on under performing players. Is it cast in stone that the England manager has to have managed in the top division? I saw Pardew got a mention over the weekend, but it is too early to write Roy's notice.

National coaches can't buy players, but even so, he wasn't solely responsible for Liverpools signings and in a lot of cases his hands were tied. Wouldn't mind Pardew either. Roy is shit.

Eddie Howe has nowhere near proved himself for international management. As I said, I cannot think of anyone suitable at this time. Eddie Howe was the first English manager I could think of that has impressed in recent years.

I think as a manager he has his strong points. I don't think he is as bad as is being made out at all. My problem with him on an International level is the tampering with tactics. An area of the game where an International manager has to excel. For me it's a no.

No they can't, but they have to spot good players. In effect a national coach "buys" any eligible player they he or she :-) thinks will play well with the rest of the team. This along with a good tactical and coaching approach. The thing about Roy is, he won't get caught spanking the secretary and he hasn't had the opportunity to let us down playing against decent opposition yet EDIT (badly phrased, his stats as England manager are still acceptable) Roy on Wiki

I am struggling, however, to think of a suitable candidate. Eddie Howe perhaps? Not sure if he would even consider it but the only candidate for me would be Alan Pardew, by far the best English manager around at the moment.

I want someone who will drop Rooney if he's under performing. I want one who's not afraid to say what he thinks about the players or other managers. Someone who will play youngsters and not stick to the big names because he's too afraid of player power. A bit of a Mourinho of years ago.

Hodgson is not a bad manager anyway, no need to replace him.
Our problems at international level are down to far more than the manager, he doesn't have a lot to work with at the moment - probably the worst English players to pick from in the last 30 years.

Pardew, Southgate, GNev, Big Sam or Rodgers. Pick your next England manager out of that lot - they are the only credible candidates.

He's at least prepared to change it up and he has hit on stuff that's worked brilliantly as well as stuff that hasn't.

We've arguably got the best crop of youngsters comig through since the Golden shower of the new millennium haven't we? As long as anyone but Hodgson is charged with bringing them through, it will do for me.
