Glenn Hoddle welcomes England talks By: Lyall Thomas (SL) (July 2nd 2016)

Former England manager Glenn Hoddle says he would welcome talks with the FA about a role with the national side.


The 58-year-old, who managed England between 1996 and 1999, has been tipped by a number of high-profile figures to succeed Roy Hodgson, including former England U21 manager Peter Taylor.

FA chief executive Martin Glenn, who has admitted he is "not a football expert", makes up a three-man panel in search of a new boss alongside technical director Dan Ashworth and vice-chairman David Gill - and they have been encouraged to take their time.

But Hoddle, who made 58 appearances for England as a player, says he is open to talks about any role the FA might have in mind.

"I am flattered that people in football are saying that perhaps I should have another go at it," Hoddle told ITV.

"I've not had contact from the FA but if they did come then I would talk to them about whatever role they want. But I can assure you there has been no contact.

"The bottom line is if they come and want to talk, I'll talk. They might just want some feedback, they might have their guy already.

"They are doing the right thing by taking their time. It is a big call for them and for the country."

Hoddle took England to only one major tournament - the 1998 World Cup in which they were knocked out in the last-16 by Argentina - and was sacked in 1999.

Hoddle's 60 per cent win rate as England manager is bettered only by Sir Alf Ramsey and Fabio Capello.

Really............


He's already failed at the job and in the game against Argentina the players said afterwards they took NO notice of his tactics.

Then he brought the clairvoyant in and made a laughing stock out of the whole thing.

Why go backwards when clearly we need to go forwards..

As for a 60% win rate thats not great as for most of the time we are playing 3rd rate countries in meaningless friendlies and as for qualifying groups even David Cameron could get us through those....

And he hasnt managed for years so that tells you something...
