i would also like to quote The Guardian
“The most successful society the world has ever known”
And since when has being whether you are catholic or protestant matter? I know Swedes are uneducated and naturally stupid, but incase you havn't noticed catholic vs protestant is nothing like as dangerous as capitalism vs communism, if you can call it dangerous at all.
You qualified for Euro 08? Well, many other teams have also done this.
Seriously, this is funny, give me more examples of Sweden's "great" achievements
They invented the Volvo!
sure! blame the coach
If I could be botered i'd bring up the thread from when sven left, where you lot praised the new coach saying he wasnt anything like sven. heh!
sure! blame the coach
Sven was a c^^t
Come back when you know a little bit about football
McClaren was a carbon copy of sven, down to having no balls whatsoever.
what happened to the statement most english fans had that any english trainer could do better then Sven ever did?
P.S - Rumors are around that Shearer is a potential for the next manager.
Maybe so but they would never win under sven, England need a manager who picks people on performance not their name, or who they like better imoWhilst sometimes getting Flak, Sven turned England around. We were pretty much dead and buried in the 2002 world cup qualifying until Sven took over and guided us to qualification. Under Sven we also shot up about 14 places in the FIFA world rankings.

Very true,Maybe, maybe not, but thats not what im saying. Im just saying that Sven was better for England than McLaren (although thats not hard)
And anyway, what if Rooney hadnt been sent off, or what if that stupid ponytailed muppet had been more alert. We might of won the world cups in 2002 and 2006 with Sven in charge
Might be silly but I thought it was a disgrace to see McLaren stand under his damn umbrella the entire game. I dunno why, but it made me feel like he had no passion at all.

Now I'm glad I don't have to be victimized by megalomaniac people who think that their team played soccer by winning on accident against some third-class ranked team in a championship.
so to be a good coach (in your opinion?) they have to jump around, scream and curse like a fucking idiot?
The time is around 330 BC during the reign of Alexander the Great, known by many as one of the greatest military geniuses in history. After conquering the known world and beginning the journey home, Alexander was traveling with his army in what is now Southern India. This journey coiled through a very bleak desert for hundreds of miles. The immense heat and lack of food and water began to wear on the horses and draught animals the army was relying on. Exhaustion, malnutrition and dehydration set in and the animals began to die. The men were forced to walk on foot through the blazing desert. Although there were a few strong animals left that could have carried Alexander, he refused to ride while his troops suffered. This was a challenging task for Alexander, for only a few weeks before he had nearly been killed by an arrow which had punctured his lung. He also dismounted all his offices, so all men shared the same circumstances.
About mid-journey, when men were now dying of exposure and lack of water, one of the scouting parties found a small, brackish rivulet of water. The soldier carefully scooped the water into a helmet and brought it back to Alexander. Alexander received the helmet with thanks, and then did something extraordinary. He extended his arm and poured the water onto the sand. He would not take refreshment which his men were unable to share in, especially since he had decided to take the route which had led to their suffering. Alexander's gesture had an electric effect on the army; as if everyone had a drink from that helmet.
