English for England
So the debate rages on. Should England go with a foreign import or go with an English manager to lead the team to the next World Cup? The argument is that the the representation that an international team sends in to an international match should all be of that nationality. This is an honourable sentiment, however, if England were allowed to pick Kaka or Messi for the starting eleven, you could be certain sure that they would do so, obviously, because they are better than any of the English players available. For managers, the FA are allowed to pick a foreign manager. So why should they pick an inferior manager when they are allowed to select a better manager, who cares if they're foreign. This game is about winning isn't it? Let's face it, there's not a lot of top quality English managers around is there? The FA should be seeking to employ the best manager who is likely to agree terms and, preferably, currently unemployed, to avoid any complications or payoff fees. There is one man that springs to mind who fits the above description. Jose Mourinho. Why bother with anyone else?
