Since we won the world cup, Germany have won 6 titles and we've won 6 knockout games

[@JE-ch2wx]

yeah but we won the world cup in 1966 and we have never had any very good players since then we get the superstars like Beckham and Paul Gascoigne

[@YUnitedFootball]

+J20E09 Did you lot win the world cup in 1966? It's weird that nobody ever mentions it. What are you on about you've had top class players consistently. From the late 80's early 90's there was Bryan Robson, Lineker, Gascoigne, Barnes etc. You've also had Seamen, Scholes, Shearer, Sheringham, Cole, Beckham, Gerrard, Lampard, Terry, Ferdinand, Neville and even Michael Owen (a former Ballon d'Or winner).

[@JE-ch2wx]

+Tev yeah but if you look at other countries they have amazing players like Ronaldo messi Neymar Suarez and people like that we have Kane and Rooney

[@YUnitedFootball]

J20E09 But you said you haven't had very good players since 1966 and I listed lots of very good players you had since then.

Not much but Summer transfer isn't over so still some big transfers could go down

The platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus), also known as the duck-billed platypus, is a semiaquatic egg-laying mammal endemic to eastern Australia, including Tasmania. Together with the four species of echidna, it is one of the five extant species of monotremes, the only mammals that lay eggs instead of giving birth. The animal is the sole living representative of its family (Ornithorhynchidae) and genus (Ornithorhynchus), though a number of related species have been found in the fossil record.

[@antarestv7628]

IMO Jürgen Klinsmann would be the best, because he's a reformer. When he got the Germany job in 2004, we where just knocked out at the Euros at the group stage. But Klinsmann reformed the team, gave it new team spirit and inserted new training methods and tactics. So he's a great manager to bulid up something new, what England needs to do desperately. If so many managers fail at a world class national team manager spot, you should question more the system then the managers. Also Klinsmann is very loyal to himself and doesn't care if anyone shouts inbetween, because he makes also difficult decisions like putting Lehmann 2006 in goal for Germany instead of Kahn (An outrage at this time, but Lehmann saved two penalties against Argentinia.). And Klinsmann build the fundament to the world cup triumph 2014. He inserted players like Lahm, Schweinsteiger and Podolski to the team. So I think you lost a big oppurtunity to rebulid and reform your national team and the FA.

[@Yom_Bristol]

Yeah I think Klinsmann was the best choice but I sorta knew from the start they were only going to pick someone English.

[@himzers]

Ask any American that follows football and I'm sure they'll all disagree with you. He hasn't done anything special for them. Just look at one of Jimmy Conrad's rants about him. Not saying you're wrong or anything btw

[@calebwoodall7488]

+David Parsons but the Germany team that dominated for a while was entirely based on Klinsmann's work, would've been a great appointment, but Big Sam will do a good job I think.

[@himzers]

Caleb Woodall but that was 10, 12 years ago. The England team need a manager for today. Not someone who was decent a decade ago.

[@himzers]

***** Firstly, shout out to Tim Cahill man. Secondly, I don't know. The team is very inconsistent, he makes to many changes to the team, never keeping inform players on the pitch for 2 straight games. I just don't think he's got it worked out in the U.S and the media over their just fuel him, making the average Americans believe he's done ok

[@tomhearn8047]

i am glad allardyce is manager because 1. he is English, i know foreign managers are better but managing your own country means you will put in more passion which we have lacked over years. 2. he can motivate players, he has kept Sunderland up for 2 or 3 seasons now and that has to be shown as he has motivated his players, we never saw this at the euros and i think it really will help 3. he has a style of working around the talant but also as a team, therefore we can allow the likes of kane, vardy and alli who were quiet this tournament to show what they can do but also still play as a team

[@lnp1384]

Allardyce joined Sunderland at the beginning of 15/16 season so what are you saying

[@jamieholmes8143]

Just saying he hasn't even been at Sunderland two seasons

[@tommarchant5003]

Point 1 and 2 don't really work because you say we've lacked passion in recent years and an English manager will change that, but Roy hodgeson was English too? And also big Sam has only been at Sunderland for 1 year

[@InfernaLuck156]

m8 Roy couldn't Motivate his old sagy genitalia to sit up even if there is was 50000 naked women around him

[@calumhayeslufc4408]

+Tom Marchant you can tell you know very little about the game on that statement. Hodgson is clueless,passionless didn't know who to pick didn't know what formation to play didn't know who to play in the formation or where to play his players. Sam plays proper football rather than playing the ball square and back he will pick players who deserve to be in the squad such as Carroll,Defoe,Drinkwarter,Noble ext. and lastly tells the players if they were shite and tells the media his honest opinion rather than Roy who would just say if we lost that the lads were unlucky we played very well and more crap.

Fair and reasoned analysis. You've just upped my confidence in the Big S. Let's see how he does in qualifying before judging him, and I agree that just winning a couple of knockout games - even dare I say it, on penalties - would be a coup for England. Cheers Spencer. Craig

[@emilymcplugger]

The irony being that what he’s asking for, a manager who isn’t saying, we’re going to win a tournament, a manager with a clear plan, a manager who can motivate and show good man-management of players ..is exactly what we got. And it was Gareth Southgate not Big Sam.

[@bubgameslover1811]

Nah Gareth Southgate is a terrible manager, 3 major tournaments that have basically stat padded his time as manager due to the easy draws. Gareth Southgate is an embarrassment of a manager, lacks no leadership and has no backup plan.

[@ninabutton6167]

You talk so much sense Spencer, this could well be what England need right now. Keep up the great work!

[@jaker_8719]

I agree Spen, in your last vid I said England were a team without a system. Big Sam will give us a system. At the end of the day no ones expecting much from us, so let's go back to basics. Sam will make us hard to beat which currently is exactly what you need, it's no good playing well but not winning(look at Arsenal). He'll deploy actual tactics for specific matches, we'd have never conceded that throw in goal against Iceland with Sam in charge. The thing I like the most about sam is his passion, he'll make the players pumped to play well. But equally, if a players playing awfully like Harry Kane was, he won't be afraid to take him off. I personally am very happy with this appointment!

[@alexgeorge1028]

Sam Allardyce is pretty much Hodgson 2.0. Can't see him doing much better TBH.

[@samueltkeenan]

he has the ability to. motivate players and he usually has a style of play he sticks to, not like hodgson at all

[@alexgeorge1028]

Samuel Keenan True. Hodgson didn't even have a style of football,he had no tactics at all. I don't think he'll do worse than Hodgson, but I'll back the guy.

[@andyrodriguez283]

I like him better then Hodgson but I don't see a big change for England either

[@stonadge]

+Alex George big sam is completely opposite to Roy Hodgson, believe me, I'm a Liverpool fan. I'd have preferred Sam to Roy when he came to Liverpool, because he's so motivational, defensively organised, and generally a nice bloke. Roy is a lazy manager, with no man management skills, and no fucking tactics, so you may as well have stuck anyone in charge of England.

[@Ethan-hj6oz]

[@ciadhtakahashi8332]

+JumpersForGoalposts that is very true

[@Ra1kir]

Why are they 'not good'? They underperformed massively at the Euros and played dreadful, I'll accept that, but I think they are a good team. Harry Kane and Jamie Vardy were the two top goal scorers in the premier league this season, ahead of players like Alexis Sanchez and Sergio Aguero. Maybe the midfield may need a bit of rearranging (e.g get Noble in there) but I honestly think that the majority of the team is above average. Just my opinion :)

[@nicu357]

+Oliver Grant "above average" won't win you any trophies. yes they have a good enough squad to qualify for euros and wc reach the knockout stage but that's about it

[@haydenseifert4827]

+Oliver Grant I should say not good compared to what English fans expect of them. They are no where near good enough to make it to the semis or quarters of major tournaments based on skill. And all the English fans are expecting a title. It's gonna take a lot of luck to win a euro or a World Cup.

[@jamesrichardson8892]

Dead right Spen-dogg. Every word is spot on. Big Sam has the ability to make poor teams average, and average teams pretty good. Which is the area England are at the moment, for some reason this curse has caused us to be very poor. All we want is an average tournament, and that should be what Big Sam provides, particularly, he won't be afraid to call up some players from 'lesser' teams... Such as Antonio, Drinkwater, Noble, Carroll, Shawcross... etc. - Players who deserve their spots, but don't get it because they don't play for Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Spurs or the Manchesters. I think a solid appointment.

[@miles7777771]

I'm glad that you mentioned about his time at Bolton because a lot of football fans forget about how good Bolton were back in the day under Big Sam. This was by far his most successful at any club, maybe West Ham as well. Since he left Bolton they went on a downward spiral for the last decade.

[@rp1455]

Absolutely spot on analysis. If he gets England to where they should be that's great, and he can do that. Then once he's instilled a good culture of hard work and humility in the team he can make way for a better manager (perhaps even Eddie Howe in the future) that can perhaps go for glory, the way West Ham have done in now appointing Bilic. This is the best managerial appointment for England since Kevin Keegan.

[@hadrianrigley5384]

IMO the big thing that we need to see from an England manager is the ability to stand up to the FA and the big clubs and pick players based on how they have performed throughout the season, not pick them based on the badge on their t-shirt. The Euros was a prime example of yet again the FA and the England management picking players not based on ability rather name and club as the primary basis for the job. All in all however I believe Big Sam is a great choice as England manager considering the options and I can't wait to see him in action p.s. Love the videos Spencer keep it up!

[@XlXBlueManXlX]

Some times Spence you really speak the truth. When I think of Big Sam playing to the strengths of his players, my mind went immediately to Jay Jay and Djorkaeff playing as inside attacking midfielders, got them to 6th two seasons running....then you said exactly that.

[@mindo61600]

Englands problem isnt at the managerial level,its at the player level.After all these years and after all these managers the one constant is THE PLAYERS ARENT PERFORMING to their own potential because you do have players who could do great things but something about them playing on the English team with a team of only English players makes them seem amateur at best.You see players like Kane put on an astronomical performance playing for Tottenham but thats because he's surrounded by many foreign players who bring a different mentality or style of play to the table.Its like they say,if everyone you meet is an asshole,maybe its you.Same with the English teams,if after each tournament and manager they continue to fail,then its not the manager's fault,but the players

[@ollyhoward2780]

I wouldn't say you can blame the Spurs players for our failure at the Euros. They played almost every game in the season and were, ultimately, drained. No-one can deny that Kane is the best striker that Barcelona, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich could have. Young and a prolific goalscorer. 20+ goals in the past two seasons. I'd like to see anyone say that there is a better striker than Harry Kane under 25.

[@mindo61600]

ProjectFut im not blaming specific players,im saying that England has great players but they cant play together,Harry Kane is a beast and has the stats to back it up

[@stanbroastman791]

there was no logic in this comment. Trust me I'm a genius. what you have said about foreign players bringing out the best in people is just dumb. People are people, it doesn't matter where you are from. There is a lack of chemistry between the current England side, but its not because they are "English". Its because of the people they are. It could also be the mangers not getting the best out of them, you cannot dismiss this possibility. I rate your comment a 1/10.

[@mindo61600]

Stan Broastman the fact that you dismiss the possibility of players who've played in different leagues with countless other players who've played in different leagues bringing different styles and a different mentality to a player who's young and quite inexperienced in the grand scheme of the sport is bizarre and you should stop commenting all together.The manager has a limited effect on the team,he can bring forth different strategies for whatever the situation calls for BUT if the players cannot carry out the sole purpose of their existence is not the managers fault,if the player doesnt show up to training and when he does he fucks around,its not the managers fault

I'd say big Sam was a good choice. Better than Juergen Klinsman. I'm American and he is just too inconsistent for my liking.

[@Baronovic]

I'd of liked Klingsmann tbh, he started the Golden generation in Germany, and although he maybe inconsistent as you say you can't argue you are miles better with him as your manager? He's turned you from a laughing stock to an actual respected team

[@Tinytorres0606]

+Joel Hunter yes but last year we got knocked out of the North American cup (Gold Cup) by Jamaica. And it was because he didn't pick the right players. We have a player Julian green who scored with his first touch of a ball in a World Cup against Belgium, but he hasn't been brought back. I just feel like he used to be better than he is now. He's good, but he took us from having good players playing incorrectly in the wrong places, to just a team that knows how to play. I'm not sure how he would do for England though.

[@Kemoclout]

+Tinytorres0606 that doesn't meant Julian green is a scoring machine or a maestro with the ball. he brought some youth to the copa100 and they did what they could. the us would never in a lifetime beat Argentina especially one with messi

[@Baronovic]

+Tinytorres0606 it could be worse you could get knocked out by Iceland haha, but let's compare that with the World Cup in 2014 you overachieved massively, and this year you got to the Semis in the Copa? I think that Gold cup defeat can be forgiven in all honesty. But it doesn't matter now because Big Sam is in charge, and would you like another manager for the US and if so who would you like?

[@Tinytorres0606]

+Joel Hunter honestly if we are realistic, nobody will take the job because they still feel like we are useless in the footballing world. Now that you say that, I don't really think I would replace him. I feel more optimistic about us. I hope Big Sam does the same for you in England. I'll be rooting for you guys in Russia 2018.

The equation has, in the summation, the range of t as 1 to pi which is incorrect notation so the expression is invalid. The number sitting at the top should be an integer. Looks like just random numbers and letters thrown together

[@TheOptimusTM]

it just says payet > zizou (zidane)

[@jackstraughan24]

England fans don't understand. They aren't anywhere near the level of France, Germany, Spain, Portugal etc. They got beaten by the better team in Iceland

[@jamijam8998]

Cos of hart

[@rizzeazy]

Spain?

[@williamselinder9138]

+Jami jam89 cuz of hart? hahaha, blame the keeper.. like if u could stop the shots.. only the one for Icelands 2nd goal.. that was unacceptable

[@williamselinder9138]

Spain, is kinda bad now.. no offense

[@jackstraughan24]

+Troopz and? That means nothing. Football is a team game

[@joaoconstantino8254]

England don't have talent....they rarely do...sometimes there is a Scholes or a Lampard...but pure talent...like some Brazilians, or Spanish, or French, or German, or Portuguese, or Dutch, or Argentinian, etc,...(even Wales have a pure talented guy in there team)....they don't have...and for that reason they can't play posession, preety, offensive style football...or they will never win anything... If they want a shot a anything....they need to play ugly football... I'm talking about lumping the ball to a big man upfront a he knuts it in....that is the English way...that should be the only way... Don't try to piss about about with technnical abilities...because your players have nothing in that departement...FACT! And BIg Sam should know that...that is why he is the BEST POSSIBLE CHOICE!!!

@João Constantino This comment did not age well.

Joey wearing the hashstag kit killed me 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@alfierigby4360]

You hit the nail on the head there! You're spot on, nice to see a West Ham speaking fairly of him really

[@amandafranks5108]

take out Rooney, Henderson, Milner and sterling as they are trash.

[@suckurnan9532]

trash uno

[@footballgod2512]

And Jack Wheelchair also.

[@ljfootball2135]

Milner?

[@Dunit007]

I agree but Milner should stay in

[@connor7096]

Did you see Rooney at the euros, he was one of England's best players

[@RyanGeraghtyAndYourMumOnYT]

Wow, great opinion! I was disagreeing with Big Sam but now I am quite confident

[@hgytughggghyuok7419]

Comgrats spen on 1.5 million subs

[@tbsn1fan]

love the video Spencer, Sam plays to a system and thats one of the things we really lacked in the Euros.

[@kaigarrett5096]

Lovely shirt literally spent all video trying to work it out 😂 love it

[@jamieholmes8143]

I completely agree if you watched Sunderland towards the end of the season they actually started playing decent football and nice counter attacking football also he knows how to utilise players like van annholt and doing that really helped Sunderland stay up

[@04boyle23]

The doge head on the hashtag kit is on point

[@tyson2268]

please do an IMO of the transfer window so far for certain teams

[@James-fi9gd]

Spencer you should be the England Manager! Great video!

[@willfitzhugh1132]

Spence i totally agree with you especially with your points on Mourinho, Guardiola not wanting the job, why would they take over a team who just got knocked out by Iceland and with all the pressure from the English pressure as well. Whoever takes the job from now and the future are doomed due to the unrealistic pressure and targets set for them by the fans and the media.

[@eldorchicnaza7496]

you are the best fifa youtuber I have ever watched

[@nsk3584]

at first I thought big Sam wouldn't be so good as England manager but then when you explained that he's someone who always achieves his clubs target it made me think that he should do well as England manager

[@fchedave6013]

I like Big Sam as an appointment he has an awful lot of positives that people overlook. Never been relegated from the premier league, took Bolton from the championship to Europe on merit of league position, seamlessly integrated sports science into his own management style. I know people will say it'll just be the long ball game but I am telling you now while he does use it, it isn't his main way to set up tactically. He sets his team out to beat who they playing against. Big Sam will make us a more rounded team that actually have a game plan in place as well as an option b just incase that's not working. And before I get called a Sunderland or Bolton fan I'm actually a man United fan. Just appreciate good managers

[@jack-pq9qc]

Congrats on 1.5 million subs

[@BenG-im9km]

Spot on Spencer. Couldn't agree more.

[@KingJesusMessiah]

I would have LOVED to see Harry Redknapp in charge of Euro 2012, World Cup 2014 and Euro 2016...could you imagine our results or at least the entertaining football and comments. Would've taken him now....look at Spain appointing Del Bosque and Aragones in their old age. Miss Hoddle too.

[@dubsy878]

Spen, you make everything bad feel good!

[@yasuof3291]

i would have wanted jourcim clinsmen(the old german coach)

[@tombrown1515]

the fa were looking at wenger too

[@yehudamosheftaya9142]

IMO are one of my favorite series in this channel....

[@harrytaylor20]

+Spencer FC spot on about the success of jobs he did at all of his premier league clubs. As a 17 year old blackburn fan, I was really annoyed when we sacked him and as a result, we got relegated and haven't come back up since.

[@reubendavies7878]

as a welsh man. good luck to big Sam (he will need it) but I would love to see England do well again!

[@Panenka1995...]

Agree with you, big Sam is a great manager. But we are talking about England. It doesn't matter with manager they have. They still can't perform in big tournaments. Great video spendog!

[@davemitchell7512]

I know it's early days! but I would be very surprised if they reached the quarter final in the next World Cup I suppose round 2 would be a decent achievement as long as they play well and don't crash out against some Minos!!

[@G.Singh7]

Andy Carroll is waiting for that England call up xD

[@sampenn2947]

I am really happy about big Sam being our manager. We now have a chance of getting somewhere!

[@jaydennis-3535]

I think this is a great appointment because if you look at Big Sam when he was at Bolton he had some great players and played good football, but people think he play over the top which he only did to keep the premier league status of his club. Also spencer Jose Mouriniho did say he wants the england job and if he was still at chelsea then i think he may had an interview but i do agree about they yes men situation, as soon a Glen Hoddle said the wrong thing he was sacked

[@jaydennis-3535]

i did this before you said the stuff about big sam at bolton lol

[@samwain7594]

I had a feeling you'd not mind this appointment, I'm not too bothered by it as he can make us attack, even if it is long balls, we could use that sometimes. Take the Euros for example, we didn't score enough goals so maybe it's time to try something different. Also, our defence is terrible, which Big Sam can sort out. So overall I'm content with the decision

[@lewney12]

I wasn't excited by the prospect of Big Sam as manager, but after this video my mind has changed. Your'e 100% correct in what you're saying Spen. He does what he needs to do with the players he has. I'm not expecting anything great from him however. My number one choice would have been Rafa Benitez. Tactical manager far too good for the Championship

[@philipdodoo442]

Yous should have looked at Van Gaal he would have done WONDERS for that team like he amazingly did at United and kinda at Netherlands

[@laneysvlogs7199]

Your wearing the payet t-shirt from the amazing po box!

[@williamong6658]

can u do a transfer window mid point to give us your opinion on the transfers so far

[@joemom1349]

I like is work ethic. Kinda reminds me of jurgen.Hes always on the sideline trying to motivate players

[@thomasianni4934]

I liked Klinsmann for the job, considering that he has done well with Germany in the past, and currently with the US, a team with not the greatest players to choose from. He has experience managing at the international stage, and was a former international player himself. He has experienced playing in vital games, which is important in understanding the mentality behind his players during qualifiers and tournaments. Although I am not disappointed that the FA hired Allardyce. He would've been the second option for me.

[@MrRandomDude71]

As a Portugal fan I think Big Sam is simular to Fernando Santos. Santos took over Portugal after a poor World Cup and terrible start to the Euro qualifiers. He had done a decent job with Greece, but not really known for his pretty football. He organised our defence, and then relied on individual quality by the likes of Ronaldo and Nani to win us games. And it won us the Euros. Santos made us play the football he always has played with his teams, but this time he had better players and it worked out. I think Big Sam could do the same with England.

[@wolf-8476]

Anghel Iordanescu. Great tactician with Loads of potential in him(although he is like 70) a great defence(conceeded more in the first game than in all qualifiers) Best attack mobiliser(not more than 5 goals in all euros) and he has the best nickname in all the world: Father Chicken...BELIEVE IN FATHER CHICKEN!
