It was a bitter disappointment not qualifying for the-1994 World Cup, but the media treatment at Graham was beyond contempt. He didn't deserve that,and I fully enjoyed listening to his television interviews. A really nice bloke. As always, you win some,you lose some. It just wasn't to be at that time.I also thought at the time if time travel was possible, how much I could have made on a bet for San Marino to score in the first few seconds!:)No doubt many countries worldwide were highly delighted that England didn't make it back then!

Upon watching this now Terry had a belief that despite the limited numbers of English talent available the right manager could build a good tournament team - which showed at euro 96... Jimmy Hill understood the problems with the English game and was ahead of his time... He was spot on in pointing out how many English players were playing in Italy (the best league in the world at that time). He was always methodical, logical and eloquent in delivering his analysis of the game. Yet to mention Desmond as an anchor he is far better Anchor than the likes of Richard keys we see today, the basic skill of listening to the discussion in hand and challenging such with the right questions.... If you look at punditry today there are more bad ones than good ones... Terry Vennables and Jimmy hill are much better than the likes of Roy Keane, Graeme Souness, Andy Gray, Peter Reid and Jamie Redknapp who we constantly see on sky and BeIN sports... They speak with such intelligence and decorum .

spot on, Venables made the highly perceptive comment in 1990 that John Barnes and Waddle should have been played as two inverted inside forwards, indeed he he was arguing that from the mid 1980s..Hill was, as always, excellent..Gray and Richard Keyes were PL cheerleaders..Souness is very insightful sometimes..

@Maxwell Boyne English Champions League winning teams have been made up of a large % of foreign players coached by foreign managers. Your statements are nonsense. Holland have appeared in 3 World Cup Finals and won the Euros. Thats a mark of a very good footballing national that punches well above its weight in relation to its population and has certainly produced a higher quality of player than England has. Argentina have won the World Cup TWICE and the Copa America 15 times. Brazil have won the World Cup 5 and Copa America 9 times. Spain have won 1 World Cup and appeared in 4 Euros finals winning 3 of them. I could go on..... England have won 1 World Cup(at home) and appeared in 1 Euros final. That's an appalling return from the most underachieving football national side on the planet. Internationally England have been viewed as producing poor quality footballers who prioritise physicality over skill and guile for years. Why do you think so few foreign clubs over the years have bought English players? However,England finally have a very good group of technically gifted players(the finest squad of players they've had since 1970 in fact) and foreign coaches views of the English footballer are changing(hence the recent glut of English players playing abroad).

@Maxwell Boyne You are completely clueless pal. England in Euro 96 had an easy group(Swiss, Scots and Holland) Terrible performance and draw against the Swiss, an expected win against the Scots and an admittedly good performance against the Dutch. Then we were outplayed by Spain(who had a legitimate goal disallowed for offside) but scrapped through on pens. After that was the 2nd good performance of the tournament v Germany. All this was at Home! But in your mind this one tournament is a bigger achievement than England reaching the World Cup semis and a Euros FINAL? Crazzzy! And what's all this about pitches being in a worse condition in the 90's so you can't play technical football? 🤣 Tell that to Cruyff in the 70's,Platini, Laudrup and Maradona in the 80's, oh and the whole Brazilian side in 82. Yep, they all resorted to English style hoof ball because of the state of those pitches didn't they? I can only guess you've either never played football yourself or if you did you were completely hopeless at it because your lack of understanding of the beautiful game is shocking.

An honest review of England managers since 1990; -Graham Taylor. Had a lot of poor luck, certainly didn't have the best England team. However his direct style of play wasn't well suited to international football. Press' treatment of him was disgraceful. -Terry Venables. Never had to qualify for a tournament. Did well at Euro 96 but that was partly boosted by the momentum of home advantage. Can't really judge him although he did help England develop some sort of passing game. -Glenn Hoddle. The best fit we've had since 1990. Style of play suited for international management and was a popular figure. Also showed the balls to drop stars, as he dropped the unfit Gazza for the world cup. Should have been the England manager for the next few tournaments, Had potential to develop a great side with "golden generation" players coming through. Sadly blew up with some stupid comments. -Kevin Keegan. Popular guy, played exciting football but too tactically naive for international management. -Peter Taylor. (caretaker.) Made his mark by making Beckham Captain, who would keep the job for half a decade. Singlehandedly destroyed Leicester City after this, probably a good thing he wasn't appointed permanently. -Sven Goran Eriksson. Wasted our "golden generation" with uninspiring quarter final runs. Seemed to have no idea of tactics or squad discipline. Always picked players based on reputation, his England were a collection of individuals not a team. Spent years trying to get Lampard and Gerrard playing well together and trying to find a solution to our perennial "left midfield" problem, neither of which he ever achieved. Also kept picking "the beast" Heskey, for some reason. His salary was obscene. -Steve McClaren. By all accounts he's a good coach, but as an England manager completely out of his depth, poor lamb. -Fabio Capello. An inverse of Svens lack of discipline, he made the players miserable with his rigid, authoritarian methods in the World Cup 2010. Rooney played the worst football of his career (upto Fergie leaving Man Utd) at this tournament. Combined with his lack of tactics (bizarre for an Italian coach) no player was able to reach their potential under him. Throwing on Heskey when 4-1 down against Germany summed it up. -Roy Hodgson. Did not seem to display any passion for the job, imo he just did it for the money. Brought nothing whatsoever to the England team, he managed to subvert expectations by staying in the job through three miserable tournaments. It took our worst ever result (losing to Iceland) to get him out the job. -Sam Allardyce. 100% winning record as England manager. Best manager ever!! -Gareth Southgate. Has proved surprisingly adept at the job so far, getting the team playing fairly close to their potential. England certainly missed an opportunity to reach the world cup final though, we'll see what he does after the Covid crisis ends

It's funny seeing people saying Jimmy Hill was spot on saying England didn't have the players to compete. Yet in the following two tournaments we played much better football under Venables in '96 and Hoddle in '98. It's quite clear that although Hill is partially right, in the sense that we hadn't and still don't generally have the technical skill that certain top nations did/do, that Venables was equally correct in saying that the right manager and better tactics makes the world of difference. Football has proven this time and time again.
@SuperTed190213 жыл бұрын
Taylor in his reign picked the wrong players, played the wrong tactics and didn't nurture Gascoigne. That's what his undoing. But Jimmy Hill *could* see what was coming on the horizon, especially with the rise of the PL and Sky TV money, along with the FA losing influence. It would be at least a decade later for the effects to unfold. That's what made Jimmy Hill an misunderstood visionary.

The best comment on all of this was a front cover of When Saturday Comes. It shows Graham Taylor and a speech bubble which said simply “ God, we were crap weren’t we? “ Tells you everything you need to know. On another subject, this and other videos- notably about Hillsboro- show the true calibre of Hill and Lynham. Much undervalued at the time, Titans by today’s standards. No disrespect to Lineker, Hansen, or Wright, but these guys nailed it. They were very very good.

It's funny looking back at that now and seeing Terry Venables sat there soon to take us to one of England's most successful tournaments only a couple of years later. Had to feel for Taylor despite his shortcomings he was a true gent and as Bobby Robson showed in Italia 90 it might have turned out different for him in the world cup had we qualified. I remember the similar media hysteria surrounding Robson after Euro 88 and even leading up to Italia 90 so you just never know at a tournament - sometimes it just clicks.

Jimmy Hill was right. Graham Taylor was caught between two types of football. Look at the some of the players he was choosing, like Carlton Palmer, players who shouldn't have been anywhere near an England shirt. So Hill was right, there needed to be more resources at the time. But Taylor did not have the vision to bring through players like Teddy Sheringham who had the ability to unlock international defences. Taylor was not the right man to manage England post the 1990 world cup boom. I was surprised he was given the job at the time. England had a good squad of players in 1990 and by 1993 almost all were out of the England set up bar a few like Stewart Pearce, Platt and Des Walker. Guys like Beardlsey, Waddle, Paul Parker were still playing well. I can't remember if Mark Wright was available and not picked, or a long term injured. Wright should have been playing for England under Taylor.

Terry was right when he said Graham shouldn't have discarded those players. I was surprised Beardsley and Waddle were discarded and Taylor was never that keen on Gascoigne either. However, Jimmy Hill was spot on too. I have said for years England players were technically not as gifted as their foreign counterparts and that worked against them. They could rarely string 5 passes together. Although 30 years later, that has totally changed. Respect to the panel by the way. This was when we had proper pundits. Not the silly cartoon clown characters we get now.

Strange to see this come up after the passing of Terry Venables. Jimmy Hill and Graham Taylor are no longer with us either. The England's manager's job is a posioned challis, no matter who is in charge. EL Tel definitely got a tune out of an unruly but very talented bunch of players during that glorius summer at Euro 96, 2 and a half years on from here. He restored pride back into playing for England, who knows what could of been if he was able to remain manager beyond euro 96. Agree with what Jimmy Hill said to about the culture of English football. Even though they had differing opinions to El Tel.. Jimmy Hill actually spoke a lot of sense, and his opinions have been echoed a lot in the 30 years after this.
