I'm not normally one to call for manager's to be sacked, but McLaren made such bad decisions for this game (4-5-1! Scott Carson!) I don't think his position is tenable.
On another note, even Wayne Bridge put in a better performance than the BBC commentators. Motson going on about the Andorra game, as if there were even a possibility of any other result; saying some bullshit about teams going from 2-0 to 2-1, what the fuck else are they going to do?; saying that England were 0-0 against Andorra and they won 3-0, is everyone not 0 fucking 0 at the start of every game?. Jesus, he was a good commentator a few years ago. And Mark Lawrenson, you are not being paid to not be able to say anything.

ZEE 10 POINT ACTION PLAN FOR ENGLAND
1. sack Steve McClown
2. Get rid of Barwick, replace with David Boyle
3. Bring David James back for stability ...If David James woz in goal tonight he would have known about Kranjcar
4. Bring in Matty Taylor instead of Scummer bridge
5. Bring in Glen Jonno Johnson at right back, he would have been up against Kranjcar tonite
6. Switch Micah Richards to Centre Back
7. Instal Harry Redknapp as part time manager with Jamie Redknapp as assistant and Louise as half time totty cheerleader
8. go web2.0 with rateyourenglandplayers.com - Social media and user generated content is the future
9. instal systems thinking courses, there is more than 4-4-2 or 4-5-1
10. copy Arsene Wenger's Arsenal Blueprint of quick passing football
DISCUSS !

That "Scott Carson? more like Frank Carson!" thing is EXACTLY the sort of "joke" my dad has been trotting out for years. I am going to mentally attach "AMIRITE?" to the end of it all the time now.

Did anyone else think there was kind of an awkward moment in the studio when they were going over the second goal - Shaun Wright Phillips clearly substantially to blame, but Ian Wright being there the others weren't quite sure what to say.
Kind of like X Factor if Jack Osbourne auditioned.

There's that old comic book strip Peter Bagge and Alan Moore did about the life of the Kool Aid Man, and the punchline is that he can't stop smiling even when he's suicidal and really upset. That's what McLaren interviews remind me of.

i wonder if he still wants to distance himself from the eriksson regime. it might actually beneficial to him now to have been part of it.
― Weasel Diesel, Wednesday, 21 November 2007 23:31 (sixteen years ago) link
Why? Is there a coaching job going at Man City?
― Noodle Vague, Wednesday, 21 November 2007 23:31 (sixteen years ago) link
well not beneficial exactly, but he may want to remind people that he played a small part in a regime slightly (significantly?) less retarded than his own.
― Weasel Diesel, Wednesday, 21 November 2007 23:32 (sixteen years ago) link
i mean: he was aware enough of the failings of the eriksson regime to want to distance himself from it, yet feels he his equipped to continue in the role, despite a significant drop in results.
