After only a few games of having Steve McLaren as our national football teams manager, I am already looking for him to be replaced. Yet again our English football association has dropped a clanger in appointing the wrong man. After the debacle of Sven Goran Errickson we know have another passionless manager, when are they going to learn?
It has been a poor week for English football. On Saturday the team were only able to muster a nil-nil draw against what was a well organised Macedonian team. Throughout the match I was basically bored, how can a nation who is well known for having probably the fastest premier league in the world, have one of the slowest national teams? This was a home international game, I could not see where the hunger or passion was likely to come from.
On Wednesday evening the team travelled away to play in Zagreb against Croatia. This was the perfect opportunity for the players to make ammends for that dismal performance against Macedonia. This chance was not taken as the team were soundly beaten by two goals to nil.
For this second match the manager Steve McLaren had a few problems with his midfield as Steven Gerrard was suspended. So he decided to play Scott Parker, now I am sorry but David Beckham is ten times the player of Parker and is only not playing because of some personality clash that he and McLaren has. Come on Steve grow up will you, this is our national side and we want to see winners etc.

The statistics of football decreed that England could qualify for Euro-2008 if they did not lose their final Group match against Croatia, and so Mr. McClaren played with 10 defenders and 1 attacker. He obviously has not heard of the age-old maxim, "The strongest form of defence is attack!" No doubt we have seen the end of his term in charge of the English team, and we now have to endure weeks, if not months, of the FA's woolly-minded deliberations. There will be no clean and decisive action from the behemoth's at 25 Soho Square, London; it is said that dinosaurs had a brain the size of a walnut, and you can be assured that the nuts at the FA will eventually make a ponderous and exacerbating decision.

Their short list of potential replacements will be stuffed with foreigners and perhaps the occasional Englishman to appease the natives of England. You will see Mourinho's name high on the list, and a better manager and leader of me you will be hard-pressed to find. His departure from Chelsea brought tears to they eyes of his team, while some like Drogba openly cried in pain and disbelief.
