So if I understand right, you'd get rid of a manager that took the squad to the final match but you'd keep Capello to see how he does? Didn't the press tell you Capello picks his nose?

The point with Bradley is that he did fine but it will go downhill like last time if we try to keep him in there. Everything gets entrenched and complacent and it all becomes posturing to the media, and in four years the team won't be mentally ready. : Capello had fit players on the bench he just refused to turn to. That's a real minus. Especially when he said otherwise. Do you think Redknapp or Allardyce are able? This time I wouldn't advise England to take another foreigner. -- ciao, Bruce drift wave turbulence: http://www.rzg.mpg.de/~bds/

This is very reminiscent of Capello's first reign at Milan, great start, too much faith in the old players, no one comes through, sacked after a mid-table finish. -- http://soccer-europe.com Rss feed : http://soccer-europe.com/RSS/News.xml |
