It's always complicated when a manager arrives to any job in football, but a national team is a whole different concept because you have the weight of a whole country on your shoulders. In England's case the job will be incredibly hard because he is coming to a national team that hasn't really won a single trophy in modern football and yet is regarded as one of the greats. The main problem with this national team is that many of the players sometimes give the impression of being really spoiled and undisciplined.
This problem keeps persisting in modern times and regarded by people like Alan Shearer as an obstacle in Sam's way, the former international wrote a column on The Sun: "One thing you can be sure about with Sam Allardyce is that he will not take any s***. The FA have not appointed a 'yes' man. They have gone with someone who will do things his own way as England boss. The England players will definitely respect Sam because if they don't — they will be out. It's as simple as that."
He continued: "I speak to players who have been managed by him and the one thing they all say is how meticulous he is. Our England players in France looked confused, as though they didn't know what they were doing, but that will not happen with Sam in charge. He will be so meticulous with his organization of the side and the system that he wants to play. There is no way England would have lost to Iceland at the Euros if Sam was in charge."
Shearer added: "Crucially, I'm confident Sam will also pick players who are in form and are fit. Picking crocks and out-of-sorts stars has been a big mistake England have repeated over God knows how many years. Another thing Sam has got going for him is that it can't get any worse from what we saw in the summer."
