he's obviously a better club manager than national side one, though i really think the english press made him out to be worse than he was...just look at the joke mclaren's turned the team into. sven led england to qualify for and made it to the second round of every tournament he coached in. might not be an A performance, but it's a B+. so far mclaren gets a C- at best. an F if he misses euro2008.
