For al those complaining that McClaren wasn't 'truly' English, I think it worth pointing out that some England players have Irish ancestry: Gerrard, Cahill, Barry, Rooney, Aaron Lennon. And Paul Scholes was part-Scottish.
We can't blame him for Robinson's blunders, but we can blame him for his complete tactical ineptitude. 4-4-2? Carson? Crouch? BECKHAM? No Carrick? For God's sakes how does this man still have a job?
Agree. You could make any argument for Bent, Defoe, Lennon, Paul Robinson and Carrick all starting the Croatia game. The formation was ineffective too. Perhaps a 3232 would have been better
Does the manager really have to teach the Goal keepers to catch the ball? Its funny that everyone puts the blame on him, where as the players are mediocre at best
In the loss against Croatia I think the players should take 100% responsibility especially for the first goal. I don't understand how it's the manager's fault.
@@r4h4al However, Steve McClaren underestimated Croatia Here was his starting XI - Carson, Richards, Campbell, Lescott, Bridge, Wright-Phillips, Gerrard, Barry, Lampard, Joe Cole, Crouch Subs - James, Ashley Cole, Brown, Hargreaves, Beckham, Defoe, Bent
@@r4h4al But he should have played Robinson in goal, Wes Brown at centre back, Ashley Cole at left back, started Beckham (this was the first time he started on the bench for England since the 1998 World Cup) and also started Defoe and played a 4-4-2 Robinson, Richards, Brown, Campbell, Cole, Beckham, Gerrard, Lampard, Joe Cole, Defoe, Crouch Maybe also he should have subbed Hargreaves on in the second half
BIG STEVE McLAREN is a LEGEND IN SCOTLAND and CROATIA and GERMANY and IRELAND and WALES and FRANCE and RUSSIA and AUSTRALIA and IRAN and IRAQ INFACT HE IS WELL LOVED EVERY WHERE A PRIME MANAGER A GOOD MAN
he's not a bad manager but he took the job way before he was ready. and i personally think if he'd put James in goal england would of made it because robinson had a breakdown in confidence and why he ever put carson in is beyond me.
That's true. Robinson failing to hold a shot in Moscow which he should have done, and then probably the biggest howler I've ever seen by an England goalkeeper; Carson against Croatia; that shot should never have got past him.
Steve i love you, you made Twente champion of Holland. first in history ! we play championsleague because of you ! let the english people saying you did a bad job what do you care.
McClaren asked the English fans & press to judge him on 'results'. If I was him I'd have asked them to judge me on something like 'how's my driving skills', or punctuality or something totally unrelated to football which involved the English football team.
Absolutly walcott, I think that pennant would be good on the right midfield (I think that fabio will retire beckham) Pennant hasn't reached his poterntial yet, i think that his ability will grow. Also, Fabio had better not fuck owen around, he had better play him and allow him to get 50 goals, remember what taylor did to lineker? Taylor is a prick!
Do you know what? The Scots would give us a game for the first time since 1996. With Mclaren in charge you would have beaten us but so would Azerbijan.
1. You supporting United doesn't validate your views on Gerrard and Lampard. 2. Beckham is one of a handful of England players that wears his heart on his sleeve and will cry, sweat and bleed for that England shirt (albeit he plays in a different continent and is perhaps way past his prime) 3. Spain winning the Euros is a matter of the the coach finally picking "in form" players rather than big names. The same goes for England.
To be fair England do have the players but every manager play the top named players not the top form players. Rooney is shit for England but everyone worships him. Crouch plays score's then gets dropped what up with that picture??
Cheers =D I'll put my hands up; it was a sly dig... in all honesty, Scotland with McClaren in charge of England would have seen us get embarassed as the Scots were flying at the time... now it would be a close one... As for Liam, and anyone else with his simplistic mindframe, have a think about what year we're living in before posting stupid comments, and bang your thick skull against a wall a bit in search for common sense.
Prob the worst England manager ever. No charisma, no leadership qualities, boring usual cliched answers in his interviews. The guy is just so bland. Im sure he's a lovely guy but should never have been England manager.
The opening ten seconds of this sum up England fans perfectly.

Michael McKean that’s so stupid I don’t know where to start. No one is fully of one nationality.

Hopefully the new manager will give caps to pennant and recall carragher under the promise that he will actually be used!

Because Robinson had a breakdown and Carson had played and kept a clean sheet against Austria just before this game.
The McClaren era was awful, but the humour that came out of it was priceless....
I know pretty much all the goals we conceded were mistakes. For non England fans it must have been hilarious.
He did a horrible job as the england manager, but at least he admitted he sucked. (sort of...)
im not saying he's good enough to manage England but thinking back two goalkeeping errors cost us

Another player that could have played in the qualifiers after his fantastic season in the CL with Liverpool.
6:30 tonight McClaren calls them into his bedroom.
"we've got the talent, we've got the ability,".. yeah, maybe so... but we never had the coach.
Well we had Sven who was a decent coach for us. Three QF's; two of which only going out on penalties.
Do you know what? The Scots would give us a game for the first time since 1996. With Mclaren in charge you would have beaten us but so would Azerbijan.
ITS OK MATE STEVE WOULD FORGIVE YOU
His hair is ridiculous.
WORTH EVERY PENNY MATE
yeah like walcot and young those two are crackshots
The bad loop of the music gave me a headache.
He made good money, that's for sure
steve never learn foot ball
we love u shteve!
just dont ever come back 2 england...
That was aimed at Liamprickhorn
I AGREE
THIS MAN IS VERY MUCK!
