Next England Manager? Next England Captain?

So after last night’s embarrassing exit to the hands of Iceland and Woy doing the right thing and resigning - who's the next man to take England forward?

Worryingly for me there are no obvious candidates? Gareth Southgate is the bookies favourite but personally didn't rate him at Middlesbrough and doesn't inspire me. I would have said Gary Neville who is current Assistant Manager but has his reputation been ruined by his stint at Valencia and being part of Roy's coaching team at the World Cup and Euros?

Personally I’d like to see Eddie Howe get it, use to want Redknapp to get it but that's unlikely now or do you think the FA should look for a foreign coach - Wenger? Pellegrini?

.... or does it not matter who we get as coach we will always suck?

Also for me with Rooney ageing and his poor performance yesterday i don't think he should lead us there is some debate if he should be in the starting 11, should he continue to captain us and if not who is the right man, there doesn't appear to be a Tony Adams or John Terry or any leaders in this squad, i do think we build a new younger England squad with the likes of Rashford and Barkley starting?

Manager wise, think the only one I'd go with is Eddie Howe, someone young and not afraid to make decisions.

Captain; Rooney just needs to go. I have a feeling he'll come out and retire or at least give up the captaincy. We do need an older head to be captain though so I'd probably go with Cahill for now.

Keeper; I agree it's time to give someone else a chance. Based on last season it would be Butland but we'll have to see how he comes back from his injury. Forster has been great the past few seasons. I'd also like to see how Hart comes back from this.

All in all, we need some big changes, it's just not working. We need someone to come in and be ruthless, trim the deadwood and know how he wants to play football. I know in football you need a plan a, b, c etc but I think number 1 on the list is to actually get a plan a to begin with.

Rooneys already come out and said he's not retiring unfortunatly

I don't think Cahill is good enough i'd rather see Stones start ahead of him, and definatly give Butland or Forster a chance

Southgate Rejects Role

Bad times when even SouthGate who hasn't really got a reputation to tarnish turns down the role, you would have thought he would love this job.

Talks of Bruce and Allardyce being offered the role, neither inspire me, Sam will just play route 1 with Andy Carroll?

Gary Neville looks to leave his role so can't see him taking it.

Papers speculating Blanc??
