Is Hodgson the worst manager England have ever had?

Recommended Posts

Posted

He's up there. Hasn't got a clue what his best team is and picks them on name/club status rather than form. Consistently terrible man management. Boring, boring England. **** off Roy you cretinous cvnt.

Where to start:

 

Picking players on reputations rather than form.

Picking the wrong formation.

Failing to change said formation during match.

Leaving your star striker on the bench.

Building the team around a bottling, mentally weak Spurs side.

Bad substitutions.

Bad game management.

Strangling the life out of a talented group of players.

Mistake after mistake after mistake.

 

and finally, delivering our most humiliating result in our history.

 

Worst manager in our history. Worst manager ever.

To be honest, he/we should have been put out of our misery in 2014. How many other coaches would realistically have survived a group stage exit in Brazil. Let's not forget we were also abject in that.

 

It should never have got to this stage. He should have been released after the WC shambles. Two tournaments, two failures. The warning signs were there. The spineless FA ignored them.

Steve McClaren is the worst by far, Woy can say he lead England to two tournaments. McClaren didn't even qualify. However Woy's reign has offered nothing special, we haven't gone forward whatsoever since Capello's departure.

He could have had Ronaldo and messi and we'd have limped out. Alli and kane were shit the whole tournament, dier, walker and rose weren't. All shit tonight though, this comment is the only thing i don't agree with you on.

Feel quite sorry for him. Genuinely think he's gone senile. He brought Jack Wilshere on at half time, despite everything he and we and everyone has seen/not seen over the last year. He's a sweet man bless him.

All shit tonight though, this comment is the only thing i don't agree with you on. Or the star striker comment, they had so many options up front. Unless you are talking about Rashford

He's just a run-of-the-mill jobsworth with no great tactical or inspirational acumen at all that I've ever noticed but then I haven't watched all the games of his "reign".

 

He doesn't even seem convinced of his best team. Sterling out left tonight was always going to be a weakness. He's lightweight, almost always turns back onto his right foot whatever progress he makes, isn't blessed with blistering pace on the ball and is about as accurate with his final ball as a blind man with octagonal toecaps.  

 

Who played well for England today? No-one. Iceland won 2-1 and had arguably the most clear-cut chances to win by one or two more. Tactically they were spot on and we had no answer mentally or spiritually.

 

Several times we had unchallenged opportunities to inswing seriously dangerous crosses onto the far post but, in racing terms, missed every one by a distance. Our free-kicks were woeful.  Rooney scored his excellently placed penalty and otherwise looked like he'd never cushioned an accurate pass in his life.

 

Deli Alli was slow and uncertain, Sturridge a dancing fairy who was still waiting for a decent pass after 90 minutes.

 

When we won the World Cup in 1966 Alf Ramsey fielded a largely settled team which operated like a well oiled machine with different components that complimented each other effectively. We flattered to deceive and were basically an anti-climax.

 

Good managers do four things. They pick complimentary players consistently, organise them effectively, inspire them to have complete confidence in themselves and each other and they come up with answers in times of trouble.

 

Hodgson got 0/4 tonight and was never convincing the rest of the tournament. Our worst manager ever? No.

People raised eyebrows when I said i'd rather have McClaren than that idiot only last week.

 

Ok McClaren failed to qualify but i'd probably rather that than get humiliated in the tournament.

He's the worst England manager I've ever seen by a considerable distance. I'd go further and say he's the worst manager I've seen in professional football. Even Peter Taylor got an occasional good result. I'll forgive Hodgson if it turns out, as I suspect, that he's suffering from some sort of debilitating mental problem in his old age, but if that's the case he really should have resigned before the tournament.

Posted

On par with McClaren for sure.

He was out of his depth from day one. Couldn't motivate the players when it truly mattered, never knew his best team and always played players out of a position in a formation that lost all relevancy from about 2010.

Hopefully Rooney retires from International football the whole team needs a shake up. He's been good not great but good but his legs have gone and he slows everything down too much.

Posted

Can everyone stop saying he resigned?

The cvnt was out of contract, do you really think he was getting a new deal?

 

With the English FA? Probably. lol

Graham Taylor? God awful teams ft. the likes of Dennis Wise. Failed to get to USA 94 and subbed of Saint Gary in Sweede head 92
