There`s a leader if you ever saw one :good:

A leader with no experience

England will be destroyed this summer :(

Good.

He'll be a natural I reckon. Very eloquent and tactically aware - certainly impressed me with his punditry during the World Cup.

I'm pretty sure that Johnson will make a good England manager. I think that Brian Ashton did a good job, getting us to the World Cup Final was amazing considering nobody gave us a chance.
