Pick Foster Says

I’m sorry, what? If the first part of that sentence doesn’t bother you, then the second part should. In my humble opinion.

Unlike some people, I actually don’t have any issues with our national team boss hailing from overseas. The practice is rife across the world today and while prevalence doesn’t mean it’s perfect, the results of broadening one’s approach by bringing in a foreign coach are there for all to see. A German coached Greece to glory at Euro 2004, just pipping a Portuguese side managed by a Brazilian (okay, so they speak the same tongue). And a certain Swede actually fared quite well as Capello’s predecessor if you look at his results on the pitch with England instead of his scores in the FA's corridors.
