Eddie Howe would be my choice, as i believe he is the best English manager out there, but whether he would leave Newcastle
is another thing, People are talking about Klopp, i'm sure he would improve the team immensely but i'd prefer an English manager.

For Howe its a punt. Your average manager is lucky to get 3/4 seasons at a club and that includes them having a decent start at the club.

Its no major shock to me if Newcastle start badly this season that fans start calling for Howes head.

IMHO if he knows there will be a minimum spend and only 1 or 2 half decent signings, i'd bin off Newcastle and take the England job.

He's guaranteed at least 4 years (worst case scenario) and unless he stinks the shop up (Unlikely as he has shown he is a decent coach), he will get another PL job at maybe a West Ham level.

Hes a very good coach/manager but he has been strung up with this PSR bull5hit. I also get the impression he didnt get on with Ashworth and faling out with DOFs usually marks your card with owners like Newcastles who don't like being dictated to.
Report tobermory July 25, 2024 5:31 PM BST
Yeah, agree with that Racing. Though I think Newcastle fans would back him in a difficut start.

But the changes at Newcastle must concern him. Reported that players can now be signed without his agreement...

and worse, he seems to have been blamed for the club's injury list and some 'injury expert' has been brought in to oversee training sessions and tell Eddie what he is doing wrong.

I'd advise him to take the England job. As said, even if it doesn't go great he'd likely get a West Ham, or even Spurs level job in the aftermath.

The England job might not come around again for 6 years and if Newcastle ends in a sacking his career might take a turn for the worse.

"I was quite surprised after the last camp in terms of 'the job is mine' and 'it's mine to lose' and all the rest of it," Carsley told a news conference. "My remit has been clear from the start. I'm doing three camps. There are three games left and then hopefully I'll be going back to the Under-21s."

Tuchel would be good for England. He is one of the best coaches in KO tournaments. He also seems to have a lot of love for English football, moreso than German. His problems at Dortmund and PSG were primarily with DOFs and their signing players for him that he didn't want or ask for. That obviously wouldn't apply for England.

What big name players was he not able to handle? He is stubborn and has a big ego but his problems at club level stem mainly from people seeking to undermine him doing his job. Once he gets the hump the wheels can come off pretty quickly but international football might actually suit him perfectly.

He's a massive step up from Gareth, like he was from Lampard at Chelsea. He did a great job there, didn't score many goals but didn't have a striker after Lukaku flopped and he had to work with Werner who was awful. The sanctions in his 2nd season didn't help but he still went close to knocking Real out.

United should have gone in for him, maybe they did in the summer?

England prob have the best manager in international football now. Great news for them with the WC coming up.

My concern is if he can hold it together. Seems to be a little temperamental at times, like the handshake with Conte, for example, and can he get the dressing room onside; something which Southgate managed to do, which probably helped our progress tbf.

The other is can is hold the team?

Personally J hope he builds the team around Bellingham and plays the best player in each position. I am fed up of the Gerrard or Lampard argument when the answer was Scholes.

A champions league winning side also winning the CWC and Super Cup is never going to be impressive.
He was never going to win the league in England or Germany against Pep. Dortmund sold 3 of his best performers in Gundo, Hummels and Mhiki and replaced them with youngsters after his 1st season. Dortmund's team bus was bombed in his 2nd season and the club agreed to UEFA's demand to play the Monaco game the following day, against his wishes. He won the German Cup a month after that.

He seems to have a rep as a negative, defensive coach in England because of his time at Chelsea. He doesn't have that rep anywhere else, he's always been known as a superb attacking coach who adapts his teams to expose the weakness of the opponent. He had to be defensive with that Chelsea side to be successful. If anything it highlights his versatility rather than negativity and that is a good thing for England because you have to be able to play like that to win tournaments.

Probably the first time I can remember England hiring an elite level manager in his prime, it's a good appointment so you can't criticise the FA for actually wanting to win something, it's not their fault English coaches are useless. Last time an English manager won an FA Cup was Redknapp in 2008, last time an English manager who a top level league was Howard Wilkinson in 1990, last time an English manager who any European trophy was Tony Barton in 1982, all of this if My Name was Sam Allerdich or Sean Dychindinho I'd be managing a top level English club is bollox, if you're good enough you'd be given the job.

Having said all that, I don't think it should ever have been allowed from the off to allow foreign coaches taking over random international football sides, the whole point of international football is country v country, that should clearly extend to the manager given he is the the one orchestrating everything, i.e. the most important person in the whole setup, everything stems from the manager.

I know people who work at big clubs who work with young players and without being disrespectful, they don't know the game, if you start badly you finish badly as we all know in greyhounds.
