I was just talking to a friend about who's fault it is England are out of the cup. The names of Rooney and Lampard were thrown out there, but in the end we agreed on Sven Goran Erikson and his barmy tactics and formations. Luckily, this world cup was Sven's swansong as England manager, and we began speculating on who would replace him, which raised a question that has bugged me ever since Sven was hired: Should a national team be allowed a foreign manager/coach? Personally I think the answer is NO. The coach should have the same nationality restrictions as the players. What do you guys think?

I dunno, I think Australia would've been doomed never to even enter another World Cup if it wasn't for coaches like Guus Hiddick. I like to call him "the Golden Guus". We all love him over here.
