Done deal according to to several outlets, including The Times.

Seems to be everywhere now

Why the fudge are we talking to non English managers? Did we learn nothing from Sven and Capello? The FA are about as incompetent as you can get.

 

[Gutter Boy]

Pint of wine? I think this will go very Sam Allardyce or Liz Truss.

Such a mistake not giving it to Poch straight after the euros

Don't they just want the best man for the job?

 

[Dicko]

So he's not even gonna be in place until after the next two Nations League games!? So we now have to listen to weeks/months of debate before he even manages his first game!

 

[Spoonman]

This is the FA's Levy/Mourinho moment. Going for the proven winner to get us over the line.

I just hope they don't sack him on the eve of a final!

Well it's not that insufferable prick. Press will have a field day.

Which Tottenham manager's have a footballing CV close to Mourinho's?

It is a weird appointment, given the FA's penchant for avoiding people who 'bring controversy' etc...

 

[Mikey10]

Hmmm…as someone with no stake in it , that seems an odd appointment from all sorts of angles.

 

[glorygloryeze]

Yeah, there must be an angle we're missing....maybe they expect it to go wrong early in time for Howe to leave Saudi Sportswashing Machine?

What does that have to do with anything?

 

[K.D.D.D.D.Soc]

It's probably one of the most difficult jobs in world football, the expectations of the media and fans far exceed the ability of the talent available. We have good players but lack a plan or system, our players don't seem to me to play with the same pride or passion I see in perceived lesser teams, it's something that's been lacking for decades.

Interesting questions:
When was the last time a world cup was won by a coach not from the country he's coaching?

In terms of the Euros, apart from Rehagel with Greece in 2004, when was the last time the Euros was won by a team not coached by someone from that country?
