da bet vitoria： Roberto Mancini would be the ideal candidate to become the next England manager following the dismissal of Sam Allardyce as manager, just 67 days into his tenure. His style of management may not favour all, but with the English national team in such dire straits, his availability would be welcome at this time.
da bet7k： Sam Allardyce’s resignation as England manager has left a vacancy at the F.A. once again that is required to be filled swiftly.
Roberto Mancin may well be keen on a return to England following his departure from Inter Milan once again, as the San Siro outfit sacked the manager in August over a boardroom dispute.
Why do England need to turn to Mancini? For starters, his career in England was an enormous success as he guided Manchester City to record-breaking heights during his three and a half years at the Etihad Stadium. A Premier League title 2012 and F.A. Cup success in 2011 are fondly remembered by the City faithful as Mancini made history at City.
His familiarity with the English game could only benefit the national team as he made several attempts to sign a number of players whilst also managing others during his time in Manchester. Joe Hart and James Milner played under Mancini at City, whilst the Italian made attempts to sign players such as Ross Barkley and Wayne Rooney prior to his exit at the club in 2013.
Mancini is no stranger to the style of play in England and could easily adopt to his new surroundings instantly if required. His position of finding players suitable to his style of play would be a joy for Mancini as his commitment at City could never be doubted. Unlike Hodgson, Capello and Eriksson before him, Mancini could instantly make a connection between his players and fans and finally instill some much-desired pride in the national team’s shirt.
With Mancini there come problems. He has a reputation for not granting much time to fools and players who do not share his dedication and commitment – unless your name is Mario Balotelli. At both Manchester City and Inter Milan, Mancini made decisions that stunned the fans and owners of each side but he was rarely proven wrong as he went in search of a winning formula. In the England national side, a number of players continuously remain within squad selection and starting line-ups because of who they are and not what they are doing on a regular basis.
Take Wayne Rooney’s form for example, Mancini would not allow England’s captain to continue to perform at such an average level when someone else could take his place in the squad. Under Mancini, players such as Troy Deeney and Michail Antonio would regularly be considered for squad selections and a place in the team if they were worthy of such. Alarm bells were ringing this summer when Roy Hodgson astonishingly picked Jack Wilshere for his Euro 2016 squad when Danny Drinkwater was the best English central midfielder last season in the Premier League.
Ask yourself the question, would Germany, France, Spain or Italy make such decisions? The answer is no they wouldn’t have and all four teams have been in major tournament finals since 2012 and continue to achieve greater things than England.
The biggest downside to Mancini would be his man-management style and poor communication, but it cannot be any worse than previously seen under former regimes. Mancini may upset a number of players, but he will instil a winning mentality into a group of players who are clearly lacking such confidence. At Manchester City he had a squad of talented players at his disposal but by the time he arrived at Eastlands, a lack of belief in their great potential was ever-present.
The Italian quickly identified that key players needed to be added to instil confidence and that’s what Mancini did in a matter of months. In his first full season in charge, City ended their 35-year trophy drought, and the following campaign saw City win their first league title since 1968. Money may have played a major factor at the club, but like England, City had a roster full of talent at the ready waiting to be utilized to their potential. In comparison, would England have been unsuccessful at the 2006 World Cup had they had a manager who could instil belief and confidence? Surely not with that squad.
Another superb asset Mancini can bring to the table is his ability to handle the media. Mancini became a great friend of the English press during his time in Manchester and is no stranger to scrutiny. The English media are quick to judge and slam the national team, but with Mancini at the helm that could easily be controlled in a manner Jose Mourinho brings wherever he goes.
Take a risk on Mancini because the benefits could be astonishing. Should the FA see the Italian as a short-term solution then they should still go away and approach the interested Italian. With Mancini at the helm, it allows the FA to nurture a younger coach like Eddie Howe to one day become the national team manager, however for the time being, Roberto Mancini is the best solution England have available and could capitalise on it to not make the same mistakes once again.
