The British press is blessed to have 20/20 hindsight
If England had won Sven would have been the new Messiah,
McLaren would have been moved sideways and
Beckham had a statue of himself erected outside the unfinished Wembley

yes they are right to hound sven. He is a swede who gets paid MILLIONS and he made a c#ck up of his job.
The fact is we didn't get to the final because of his poor decision making skills. If we had got to the final he wouldn't be shouted at because in that case he would have done a better job. Trust me most people and sports proofessionals agree that he made some really bad decisions this world cup.
bad decision no 1 - taking a young 18 year old chap thats never even played in the premiereship, and then don't use the guy in the world cup anyway.
bad decision no 2 - having rooney up front on his own where he is very likely to get agitated and overwhelmed and thus sent off.
there are more....

I could have won the same as Sven with my Saturday team (nothing) in five years with one of the most promising England sides ever! he has won nothing apart from the odd embarrassment and he did n't get to the final of anything!
Not even a cibatta for me let alone sliced bread!
Sven is more famous round the world for cheating on his wife twice than for winning medals!

What is wrong with the British press. I'm not talking only about Sven, but generally - it's all put downs, criticism, innuendos and sometimes downright lies. Not sure whether not being British-owned has anything to do with it, but whatever the reason, their days are numbered. I haven't brought a British paper in years and know of others too.

The British Press have for years slated every failed England Manager who has left, so Sven is no exception... In fact lets face facts everyone who has failed at something or another in their lifetime is dragged down by the gutter press just to sell papers... Won't be long before Tony Blair & the Labour Party are slagged off when another party replaces them....

Yes. He admitted himself that we should have won that tournament with the players we have, and the moment the team was announced i knew we wouldnt win it because there werent enough strikers in the side and he never made the most of his substitutions. Putting Carragher on for the last 5 minutes to take a penalty that he missed, he should have put Walcott on for extra time, his pace would have torn the tired defence apart and we wouldnt have needed penalties

If i might want to i'd. i understand this.How a lot extra of those lies are the Portuguese going to take. i ask your self even as all this began in Portugal, if the instigator`s of this Charade, realised, the way it would make their police in Portugal seem incompetent. it would take an fool now to not see each and each and every of the lies that Clarence and Co are spinning. i am hoping the portuguese will retaliate to all this. surely they wont take each and each and every of the lies and deceit mendacity down.i'm positive they're a prouder people than that. even as all is declared and finished. why are not the McCanns back in Portugal searching for Madeleine, in the adventure that they are so positive she become abducted. What are they afraid of. in spite of everything they save declaring they don't seem suspects
