The Hodgson IN thread

Not open for further replies.
Look at the likes of Rooney, Wellbeck, Walcott, Oxlade Chamberlain, Parker, etc wasting their fucking lives away in great attacking sides under top class managers at club level. What they need is some time-warped fucker drilling edge-of-the-box defending into them for the next 4 years.

I can't see how this could possibly fail to be honest.
 
This is really happening isnt it. Its like a recurring nightmare.
Ive got a feeling when he gets sacked he'll become CEO of my company or something.

Harry isn't a top class manager.

You can't point to a good bit of form as him being excellent and then ignore a run as bad as the one we're on. Particularly given the stick you've given Kenny.
 
Depends on your definition of 'top class' I suppose.

But I look at the teams he's managed - Spurs, West Ham, Southampton, Portsmouth - over his last 10 odd years and they've pretty much had their best run in their last 20 years under his tutelage. That counts for something.

Argue what you like about money, etc cos I know you will. But he's not the club accountant, or CFO.
 
I am struggling to pick an England team for the first game, I guess this is going to be Roy's problem as well.

Anyone willing to try and pick a decent England team for the first game ?
 
Hart
Cole
Terry
Ferdinand
Johnson
Parker
Lampard
Walcott
Gerrard
Young
Carroll

🙂
 
Carson
Neville Terry Jagielka Konchesky
Henderson Poulsen Parker
Rooney Crouch Defoe
 
Won't be Neville. There's a story in the paper today saying Hodgson is looking at inviting him (and Shearer) to join the coaching set-up.
 
My normal cycle is:
August - Look forward to league campaign
September - Keep dreamin
October - Worry
November - Panic
December - Look forward to the international tournament.
January - May - Sulk
June - Excitement about international tournament.
2nd game of tournament - Look forward to League campaign beginning in August.
Repeat.

Roy has ruined everything for me.
Im only looking forward to the transfer window now. And that will be shit.

Im so fucking glad im a Steelers fan.
 
Fuck this, im going down Wembley and punch Nick Collins right in the fucking mouth just for reporting on this shit.
 
Hart
Cole

-walcott--parker----gerrard--Oxley

------------------Young-----------------
------------------Carroll----------------

fuck it why not
 
Oh that definately would NOT be my pick Fox.
Hart
Cole
Cahill
Jones
Walker

Parker
Gerrard

Walcott
Young
Johnson

Carroll

Its missing Rooney and Wilshere which is a massive shame.
Its still only about the 8th best team there so even if the Ghost of Ramsay was in charge we'd do well to get out of the group.
 
The only English player this year who has been near to the best players in the league is Rooney.
Van Persie
Silva
Aguero
Ramirez
Nasri
Nani
Valencia
Suarez

etc etc
Fact is we arent that good and we import talent to make our league better, and our great league (not the best, Germany is) makes people think our national team should be good.
It really isnt.
Our keeper is amazing everyone else bar Rooney is decent.
 
Spain
Germany
Holland
One of them will win

Italy
France
Portugal
All MILES better than us.

Then its us, Denmark, Sweden, Croatia and Ireland.

The miles back Poland, Russia, Czech, Ukraine and Greece.
