The England National Team - Real World Football - FM24/25 Update

In fairness, there's probably good reason for thinking that Owen is currently England's third or fourth best midfielder.

Claiming someone is England's best midfielder is a bit like damning with faint praise.

This is all dumb, i'm obviously England's best midfielder, i mean ive not played much football in the past few years either so i'm perfectly qualified right?

So Fat Sam announces his line up 42hours ahead of kick off and it's pretty much no change from a Roy set up. Henderson starting alongside Dier is not inspiring. Still playing Rooney in behind the striker, the out of form Harry Kane.

Would have probably made a few changes myself, Drinkwater ahead of Hendo and Vardy ahead of Kane at the least.

Not expecting a thriller tomorrow!

In the absence of anything else I suppose the jammy bastard 95th minute winner method counts.

Could've been worse but must do better in future.

Can someone check Martin Skrtel's bank account for money from bent Malaysian bookies? The man was on a mission to get himself marching.

And I would have gotten away with it too if it wasn't for those pesky Slovakians!

"Who am I to tell Wayne Rooney where to play?.." - Sam Allardyce.

Well Sam, that is actually your job....

Completely forgot this game was on. Then I don't really give a fuck about the national team anyway.

I take it from the comments I didn't miss much?

Jammy 95th minute winner and Skrtel trying too hard to get sent off aside, not really.

This is probably going to be a more in depth in the next few weeks given the article mentions references to current Premier League managers and recent transfers. But this initial revelation looks very bad.

Apparently Allardyce has offered to resign and some journos expect the situation to be resolved tonight.

Sam Allardyce to leave England role tonight. Mutual agreement between him and FA to part ways

Leaves with a 100% record. Best England manager ever. Not even the most bent, Don Revie surely takes that accolade.

Dunno if this is confirmation enough, not exactly Alan's Available tweeting at the FA but...

Allardyce gone, expect Gareth Southgate to take over as caretaker in the short term.
— Owen Gibson (@owen_g) September 27, 2016

I'm sure getting my post count up tonight.

Praying Southgate is NOT the long term option.

Makes you wonder what the FA did with the Stevens report, he was obviously corrupt.

Loses his dream job after one match. It's just so beautiful.

Oh and the highlight of the day:

Crazy what's happened with Big Sam. Don't know what he was thinking getting involved. He'd finally got his dream job, so unnecessary.

FA will be dying for Southgate to win his games in charge so they can give it to him permanently...

I'm sure he ruled himself out of it on a permanent basis before they gave it to Sam? Praying he does the same this time around!
