Manager for next season

[sickbeggar]

Howe would still be my choice. Not a fan of Hodgson, but given his win ratio and career, I think he'll be a bit out of our league currently

[exiled on the wirral!]

After 4 years in charge of England, I doubt a man of his age will wan't to go back to the weekly grind of the Championship.

Ex-England managers have taken worse jobs. Ramsay especially.

Bernstein wanted us to get Hodgson after the Euros according to The Sun so possibly best that he's gone?

I'd take Hodgson over most of the other candidates any day.

Me too.

The thing Hodgson does best is organise teams. He's one of the best at it.

If there's one basic thing we desperately need, it is organisation.

Can we wait for a new manager until after the Euros though. Not much time to prepare

Yeah, plus he's not exactly in the spring of youth. Good coach but not sure we can hang around for him.

Careful now I got pelted for similar comment about B&K the other day😟

Neither is Claudio Ranieri

He'd probably have sent Southgate in to do the groundwork.

Not the sexiest name out there, but we don't need sexy right now.
We need some utilitarian, fit the purpose, knows what it's doing type shit.

This is England, we'll only need the first 10 days!

Hodgson with Southgate as assistant?

[Rudy Can't Fail]

The one point against Hodgson, who I've been a great admirer of since his Swiss days, is the fact he'll be completely washed up after the Euros. We'll need somebody full of life, energised and raring to go on the 1st of June. There's so much work to be done even before the squad come back for training.

Shame. The only possibility I could see is if he had a very, very trusted Nš 2 that could prepare things for him but realistically, that's very unlikely, not to mention, too risky.

Can't see him getting sacked even if England do poorly.  I mean who else is out there who is realistically going to take over?
