Chapter 39 The Sad Europe's Strongest

British people are arrogant!

Their arrogance covers all fields!

Of course, it also includes football!

British people often proudly say that Britain is the birthplace of modern football, okay! No one will compete with them in this birthplace, so the British have expanded. Since they are the birthplace of modern football, the result of their unique minds is that British football is the most powerful in the world.

The ideal is full, but the reality is the backbone.

The British, who think they are invincible, have achieved better than other European giants in football. Except for winning a championship in the World Cup held there decades ago, other international-level competitions represent the British team at the highest level. What's the best achievement?

However, the British don't care. They still stubbornly gather all the world-class superstars that can be recognized by them, form the strongest lineup of each era, and participate in every world championship.

But now, it seems that their wish is also a little dangerous.

Since the hiring of Mr. McLaren, the so-called best local head coach, as the head coach of the England team, the results of English football have been Wang Xiaoer's New Year, which is not as good as a year.

Now even breaking out of the group stage of the European Cup qualifiers has become a big problem. Now Croatia has qualified for the group, and the remaining place will be in England and Russia.

When did the powerful English football become so embarrassing?

But it doesn't matter. The England team's qualifying situation is still good. The Russian team, which was a few points ahead of them, was won by Israel in the last round, and England regained the initiative. As long as they can win Croatia at home, they will successfully advance to next year's European Cup.

But it's still the same sentence. The ideal is very plump, and the reality is very skinny!

When the game was over, looking at the dazzling 2:3, all the English people wanted to cry without tears.

The pain of the defeat made people angry, pointing directly at England's best local coach McLaren, although McLaren still refused to resign at the post-match press conference.

"I want to take responsibility for the team's defeat, but I haven't discussed the next step with the FA. We should have lost today's game. I don't want to shirk my responsibility here, but everyone also knows the difficulties of the England team. The crisis of our striker, defense and goalkeeper did not break out today.

But it is clear that the FA has become unbearable. Chairman Thompson said in an official statement: "Like every English fan, we are frustrated by the failure to advance to the 2008 European Cup finals. I know that McLaren is more painful than anyone else, and I want to thank McLaren for his work since he took over last summer. I wish him good luck in the future. The selection of a new coach in England has begun, and we will do everything possible to choose the most suitable candidate.

From the first day in office, McLaren was not recognized. After all, he was an emergency candidate that the FA could not launch after Hiddink and Scolari and others refused.

When England was tied by Israel and the group situation was in danger, McLaren's name was also changed to "McClown" by the media.

When he defeated Andorra 3-0 at home, which was called "a London bar team that can be easily defeated" by the media, it was also regarded as a major crime. Former England captain Butcher once said: "Looking at the game he coach is more painful than pulling teeth."

After five consecutive 3:0 performances, McLaren's criticism of leaving class was temporarily suspended, but the Eastern Expedition to Moscow destroyed the whole crusaders. The Sun reminded McLaren again: "Forget the golden carriage of celebration and start preparing the black coffin."

Rumors about the change of coach have made a comeback, and McLaren faced a strong crisis of trust for the second time in a year.

But in the future, the situation in England looks good. The overly professional Israelis once pretended to be the saviors of the English. They had no chance to qualify, so they made everyone win Russia and almost sent England back to home. But McLaren, who was in a good mood, actually forgot to step on the home plate. As a result, he was blocked out. He really had to lie on the black coffin with the golden carriage.

After the game against Croatia, the British media has begun to speculate on McLaren's successor. In addition to former captain Shear, Capello also "recommends himself". Capello, who led the team to win the league championship in AC Milan, Roma, Juventus and Real Madrid, said in an interview with Milan Sport: "This is a wonderful challenge. I'm at the right age. This is a battle."

One year and three months, McLaren was forced to abdicate from the golden chair of the English coach and become one of the shortest coaches in the history of the Three Lions. Naturally, the blame was that his political performance was too poor. Erikson lost a total of 11 points in the three competition qualifiers, but his successor actually lost 13 points in a year, making the originator of modern football suffocated in the qualifiers.

McLaren is finally relieved, because the English coach is probably the most difficult job in Britain, and the job* is as complicated as the Prime Minister.

Hiddink, Scolari and others refused this hot potato, and the Football Association could only use McLaren, whose qualifications were difficult to convince the public. Except for the mediocre Miburg, who was lucky and mediocre, to enter the League Cup final, he had no successful experience and was doomed to a bumpy fate.

The deposed of Beckham was his move to establish his prestige. After taking Andorra's flag in the first game of the qualifiers, two weak teams Macedonia scored a goal, and were still tied by Macedonia at Old Trafford, and the scolding was endless.

Facing Croatia, the strongest opponent in the group, Robinson also helped and put a return ball into the gate. At this time, McKair moved the idea of reactivating Beckham.

Then he arrived in Estonia, and Beckham, who returned from the king, assisted with two feet to stabilize Mai Shuai's black gauze hat, which also gave the latter leisure to rectify the team.

Returning to Wembley to fight between Israel and Russia, McLaren's wonderful hand activated Husky, the latter's return activated the gloomy Owen, and McShal began a short honeymoon.

However, everyone knows that the last two battles of the group are the key to testing the success of Mac's British army. Sure enough, Pavlyuchenko's second opening made the English almost desperate to qualify. The Eastern Expedition to Moscow destroyed all the crusaders. The Sun pressed McLaren's head on a football to kick him away!

God gave McLaren a second chance to "be a man", but Macchael, who was ridiculed by the British media as Mickey Mouse, committed another crime.

The England team, who thought that it had seen the clouds and saw the sun, but the guests were so disgruous and thought that "victory was like a pot of dishes on the table" bit Huang Lian with McLaren.

England is out, and perhaps McLaren should also sigh: "The European Cup without England, the strongest team in Europe, is not perfect!"

However, I believe many people will refute: You are a strong asshole!
