There are certain times when managers are appointed that I just think it is a useless appointment straight away.
Examples that jump to mind are some of the managers Southampton have appointed, the guy that was Wigan boss and Glenn Roeder everytime. Gareth Southgate was another example when fans up and down the country were bewildered by the appointment of such a lamo.
Some people just lack that charisma and respect to be good bosses that the fans are happy with. Glenn Roeder has such a pathetic aura it is untrue. If the public think these things then the players will undoubtedly feel the same.
Other managers just have a certain X factor. One example, but not necessarily an obvious example, would be Lawrie Sanchez. I can respect that guy and feel the passion in him. Look what he did with Northern Ireland. Others examples include Gordon Strachan and Mark Hughes.
But....McClown? Yuck. We all knew straight away what a useless appointment this was. He wasn't even first choice. The decent choices were Scolari, Hiddink, O'Neill and Allardyce - all of which don't fall into that lamo bracket.
McClown was a failure with England before he even became full-time boss. He represented a cheap option and last choice for the FA.
Even if we do still qualify, I would love to see the FA sack him and appoint a well respected boss with some passion for the tournament. Do we really stand a chance with McClown?
Give the job to Mourinho. The FA should go for broke as it has been far too long since we did well in a tournament. It could even just be for the tournament on a short term contract as I couldn't see Mourinho not wanting to be a club boss at this point in his career.
I am sure all the players would love it. We would have a good chance and might actually realise out potential at last. Whilst of course the passionless and overpaid players have to shoulder blame, I couldn't see Mourinho taking any bullsh!t. I would love to play for Mourinho.
