As expected England are out of Euro 2008.I’m a England supporter and i was secretly hoping that something like this would happen when Steve McLaren toke over as manager from Sven. Why you start hoping that other teams win or don’t win so you can progress, its not a good sign already. When Sven left they should have cleared up the entire management team.How on earth  can you expect a new mentality from someone who was part of a mentality you never fancied??

Sometimes the lineup and choice of players are simply crazy!!This is England, have a look at the league, the talents are surplus and you field a rookie goal keeper in Scott Carson to play in such a crucial match? Carson is one for the future and McLaren effectively just broke a talents hope in one game! Idiots!!

In my view, a Ex-player should take the role next.Not a Fabio Capello or a Martin O’Neil, go for someone like Alan Shearer !Klinsmann worked in Germany,Donadoni is doing ok at Italy so why cant Shearer??? Just make sure he has a awesome coaching staff and his reputation and English passion will carry them through. A national job is not like a club job, your job is to pick the best players(not by reputation) and make sure games are won..PERIOD!

It wont be as interesting a Euro without England but at least the players from the clubs you support in the BPL will have a well rested summer to come back and have a awesome injury free season!
