Former Real Madrid coach Fabio Capello would welcome the opportunity to take charge of England and admits it would be a 'beautiful test'.England are on the lookout for a new boss after the Football Association sacked Steve McClaren on Thursday morning.McClaren paid the price for England's dismal failure to qualify for Euro 2008 and a shortlist of possible replacements is being touted with Jose Mourinho and Martin O'Neill among the reported contenders.And Capello - who was dismissed by Real despite leading them to the Primera Liga title last season - has revealed he would be interested in succeeding McClaren."Me to coach England? It would be a challenge, a beautiful test to overcome and I would have the right age," Capello said on TV channel Rai.Capello, 61, has also had successful spells with Milan, Juventus and Roma - while he was linked with the manager's job at Tottenham before Juande Ramos was appointed.

I rate Terry John_Terry_and_Wayn_392879a.jpgWhen McClaren had run off down the tunnel
sick stillRedknapp would be a risky, but interesting appointment. I'd be open minded about it.Not sure wether he would command the respect of the big name players though?Something needs to be different though, I get the impression McClaren knew they wouldnt respect him so he tried to be their friend
Redknapp would get every players respect... Look where Pompey are in the league...

ENGLAND ARE NOBODYS in int'l football
Wrong, England are seriously respected, the job is considered one of the best in world football. England footballers are respected throughout Europe, the rest of Europe is mystified at how badly we play internationalwhen we are such a force in club football.Capello has already called it a beautiful jobIf we got Mourinho as manager we would win stuffNo DoubtAnd Lol at Hiddink not considering it, swear in the interview before the Russia game, he said he wanted to manage england some dayI doubt Mourniho will take it still

Klinnsman, Van Basten, Hughes and Rijkaard all went straight into international management and did well.If we get an easy-ish group for the WC qualifiers I see no reason why Shearer shouldnt be given a chance if we can't get Mourinho/Capello.You don't always need a master tactician at international level, just someone who knows how to build a team.And you can only learn how to do that with experience, which Shearer has in abundance.But, he would not be my first choice.

The main criticism of Sven was his inability to make use of the friendlies and bleed players into the set up, he always stuck with the midfield that didnt work of Scholes, Gerrard, Lampard and Beckham, until scholes retired.He made friendlies into a joke, by playing his strongest XI first half then bringing them all off for a whole new team.McClaren gave new players a chance. Sven didn't.
