FA Approch Scolari

[tHuG $TyLe]

Just saw this on Sky Sports News, and seems there is a division on wheter Scolari should get the job because he isn't English.

But does it really matter if he's not English?

i don't really care who gets it. they will bet better than sven!

Good move by the FA if they get "big Phil", hes a better manager than Mclaren and Curbishly put together.

The argument is that he won't have the passion that an English manager would have.

If there was an English manager with Champion's League experience doing a good job with a big club, I'd agree that he should get the job above a foreign manager. There's not, so it's the FA's job to get the best manager they can.

I'm in the "best man for the job" camp. I'd have liked Hiddink until we fucked it up so Big Phil is next best option.

I think Big Phil would make a great England manager. Ideally, as said somewhere above, I'd give the job to an Englishmen with experience and a great high profile manaerial record. But none of the current English candidates have that. Passion counts for nothing if you're useless.

Scolari has just pulled out from the race to be next English manager , i have just seen on sky sports - Due to media pressure .

Bullshit - I bet F.A. didnt offer enough cash .

Media Pressure - The guy has been in charge of Brazil for gods sake .

To be honest, there would have been a lot of pressure on him. Especially as a foreign manager, if he'd taken them to Euro '08 and not done well, the fans would have been calling for his head.

He pulled out? Wtf...damn..

Your right i guess - The job is a serious health hazard , he probably saw the media circus and thought - no fucking way .

I'd like to see Sam Allardyce in charge of England, but i've got no complaints if Scolari takes over.
