Much more of this and he could well be the outstanding candidate to replace Hodgson at some point. Whether the FA would feel able to give the job to an Argentine is another matter, I suppose.
Agreed, also can they turn it round in one window?
Hadn't really thought about this, it's pretty safe to say that he cost the title that season. Strange way of looking at it I guess.
He'd be far too sensible to take it I suspect. Managing England is a massive step down from managing a top European club side.
Blanc is at best a moderate achiever in a second-rate league, and he's only connected to United in ways that most of us would rather forget. It's unclear what he actually brings to the teams he coaches and he repeatedly gets absolutely spanked tactically in big knockout games, from Euro 2012 to Citeh last week. Of all the options that fans have seriously suggested I think he's probably the joint-second-worst alongside Mark Hughes, a step below Gary Neville although still just above Giggs.
Jan Kirchhoff said Germany won the world cup because of Pep and Klopp. Wonder if we could see similar effect with Poch and Klopp managing so many young England players. Similar style too.
Well I can see why but even if we ignore Arsenal we have got City, Spurs, Man Utd (with Mourinho, or just not Van Gaal), Chelsea and even Liverpool who could be genuine contenders, and that is not even including the likely defending champions.
