Goalkeeper - one of the best in the country
Def - Berra, Hutton
Midfield - Brown, Fletcher, Robson,
Fwd - McFadden

There's plenty quality to get started with, the new man just needs to fill out the team with better stuff than Fox or Cowie or Commons.

Scotland having a decent team is probably not going to happen again - doesn't matter how many times they change the manager.
Expectations are too high, created by relative successes of days gone by.

They should be pushing to create a mainland britain team.
Give them a chance of following a team that has a crack at going deep in a comp.

Name of the team should reflect the characteristics of the individuals within it.............that'll be ENGLAND then!!

Burley is a quality manager but he couldnt polish a turd...

Goalkeeper - one of the best in the country  when fit
Def - Berra, Hutton   when fit
Midfield - Brown, Fletcher, Robson, when fit
Fwd - McFadden when fit

There's plenty quality to get started with, the new man just needs to fill out the team with better stuff than Fox or Cowie or Commons.

dont think burley ever got to play with more than 50% of those listed above

but we have got quailty but injury prone players

there must be something in there training as kids that make our players prone for injury

would love to see webster/wilkie back in the def along side berra hutton and hammell

you showed me.

they all play for premiership sides (and 2 for celtic) which is a good standard
they are all important players for premiership sides
fergie rates fletcher as a top play at man u

ok they are not all in the top 4 team in the premiership but very few brits are
and once you get outside the top 16 players for england you are going to struggle to find many english players (still wanting to play for NT)

gordon best british goalie
hutton top 3 british right backs
fletcher in fergies starting 11 need i say more
brown and robson are decent players who havent proved how good as they play in spl
mcfadden and berra important first choice players for there teams ok not quailty needed in a british team but quailty premiership players
