I Could Do Sven's Job
What does SGE actually do? As far as I can ascertain he travels around England watching the top games from the comfort of the Directors' Box (I can do that). He picks the same team (more or less) every game - regardless of form or ability (I can do that). When he occasionally brings in a new player, it's the player that the Sun/Mirror/NOTW chief football writers have been clamouring for (I can do that). Having tinkered with the diamond formation he now sticks (regardless of opposition) to 4-4-2 (I can do that). When on the sidelines he says nothing and does nothing for 80 minutes - and then brings on either another striker (if England are losing) or a defensive midfielder (if the team are winning or drawing) - I can do that. He occasionally has a crack at some dusky maiden (usually, but not exclusively an FA employee) - I'm prepared to give that a go. I'd be more lucid at press conferences and certainly be prepared to crack a few jokes.

So overall I'm a better candidate to be England manager than Sven, and I'm prepared to do it for a full £1m less than Sven pulls down each year.

I'll be by the phone, if Mr Barwick wants to give me a tinkle.
