Scotland - Burley sacked

[Scottish Dave]

the best manager in the world would have struggled with that awful team.

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

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.

lol at this list...

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)

i disagree, i would say you have 2 decent players there and the rest are poor to mediocre

gordon best british goalie - yes
hutton top 3 british right backs - wrong, purs are trying to punt him
fletcher in fergies starting 11 need i say more - yes
brown and robson are decent players who havent proved how good as they play in spl - brown is prossibly one of the worst players at celtic, biggest waste of money ive seen
mcfadden and berra important first choice players for there teams ok not quailty needed in a british team but quailty premiership players - Faddy is a choker, berra is unproven

With the United game coming up this weekend, the manager recognises Fletcher’s return as a big boost.


“Most people now recognise Darren Fletcher as a big-game player,” said Ferguson. “We have been aware of that for quite a while. Now he is getting an acceptance that he is a very important player for us. Our fans see that he is a key player in major games. That has been very important to the lad because it gives him a confidence. He has been missed in some key games recently and yes, it is great to have the boy back.”

dave you would never rate hutton as he is a an ex ger
if you guys dont want brown i know many a team that would love him
faddy performs well on the big stages so cant be called a chocker but his consistancy is questionable

[Josedinho]

Can you not judge your players by our poor standards too?
Just because England have crap right backs and goal keepers doesn't mean yours become good enough.

Going back to OP.

Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!!!!!!!!!

And not before time, shame on the SFA for giving him another chance but well played in growing some balls and fixing their mistake.

There are two stand out candidates for me but I doubt either will be take the job even if offered it.

Neither Moyes or Sir Alex are serious contenders where as Walter Smith or George Graham could be. Doubtful whether Smith will be at  Rangers beyond January but equally doubtfull the SFA would want him back after leaving to go to Rangers. George Graham appears to be retired from football management altogether and may be too controversial a character for the SFA. Two best realistic candidates by a mile IMO.

lol @ hutton and mcfadden, they are beyond terrible.

Levein is the best of these four for me but I think the most important thing is that the new man has the respect of the players, it is clear Burley didn't.

Good point that I hadn't considered.
