For just about the last 30 years, English goalkeepers have slipped down the rankings of the world's best despite the legacy that they bring with them from days gone by. There was a time when it didn't matter who played in nets for the national team (as long as it wasn't Peter Bonetti!

So it looks inevitable that Harry Redknapp will become England manager one day (unless Roy Hodgson gatecrashes the party and becomes even more unpopular). He'll probably take charge at the end of the season, and so we've tried to predict the 11 players he'd do well to pick.

We're aware that the teams lacking a lot of experience, apart from Rooney, Parker and Baines (Hart too, to some extent), so maybe Jones could drop to the bench to be replaced by an older head.

ITS was the first to reveal that Fabio Capello would quit the England post and Tottenham coach Harry Redknapp would become England manager BEFORE Euro 2012.

By J Hutcherson - WASHINGTON, DC (Feb 10, 2012) US Soccer Players -- With Fabio Capello opting not to continue as England manager this week, the interplay between the coach and the administration is once again the topic du jour in world soccer.

Meanwhile, the rest of English football's great and not-so-great have been falling over themselves to declare that they have no interest in the vacancy. 1. Arsene Wenger "I have never really been [.

Just another week in paradise. With the resignation of Fabio Capello from his post as England Manager / press voodoo doll, we're being reminded of some of the less savoury sides of the game.

Stuart Pearce will take on the seemingly poisoned chalice that is the English national team job — for now.

Following the resignation of former manager Fabio Capello, the country has gone into a frenzy as the Football Association begins its search for a new coach.

By The Numbers: Who should take over from Fabio Capello? - originally posted on Soccerlens.com

Following Fabio Capello's resignation as England manager, Castrol EDGE Performance data shows why Harry Redknapp is firm favourite to take over the reins. Since the previous European Championships in 2008, Redknapp has secured an impressive win ratio of 49% with Portsmouth and Tottenham, guiding Spurs to their most successful season in the Premier League and securing European football for the past two seasons.

Alan Pardew has quickly said he is not in the running for the vacant England manager job.

Yesterday was a tumultuos day for fans of Tottenham Hotspur. First came the news that Harry Redknapp had been cleared of charges of tax evasion and he emerged from court to a hero's welcome. Then in the evening came the news that Fabio Capello had resigned as England manager. Redknapp of course was instantly installed as the favourite to take over by fans, media and players alike.

Welcome to English football in 2012. The captain of the national team faces a criminal charge for the use of racially aggravated abuse during a Premier League match. Five months after the event, the FA announce that this player will be stripped of the captaincy without, it would appear, having consulted the manager.

It's a pretty futile task to find any headlines other than those pertaining to the question of the England manager's job this morning but is it inevitable that Harry Redknapp is about to step into Fabio Capello's expensive Italian shoes?

Virtually every newspaper and sports website is covering this and there are so many different claims as to what, if anything, has already been decided.

You turn you're back for one second and what happens? Just three months and three friendly games before Euro 2012 gets under way in June, Fabio Capello resigned as England manager last night after spending the afternoon bickering with FA chairman David Bernstein and general secretary Alex Horne at Wembley over his comments made to the Italian media vis-a-vis the FA's premature decision to strip John Terry of the national captaincy.

One of the disadvantages of working a paying job whilst trying to build a readership on your own blog is that sometimes we get blindsided by events that need immediate reporting such as we saw today in London as England manager Fabio Capello resigned his position immediately following a meeting with FA Chairman David Bernstein.

Harry Redknapp, David Bernstein, and Fabio Capello in Les Liaisons Dangereuses

A day ago, Harry Redknapp was in the dock on tax evasion charges. If proven guilty, it would end his chances to be England manager, a post that he has long coveted. Worse, as a convicted felon, the punishment could mean jail time and a leave of absence from football for a long, long time.

Fabio Capello resigns as England coach- Italian gaffer quits before Euro 2012 is a post from Soccer Blogger. Follow Soccer Blogger on Twitter England manager Fabio Capello has put in his papers months before the team travels to Poland and Ukraine for the 2012 European Championships.

Fabio Capello has stunned English football by quitting as England manager having fallen out with the FA after defender John Terry was stripped of the captaincy. The news rocked football journalists across the land as head coach Fabio Capello turned his back on the English national team and resigned with immediate effect.

After the FA decided to strip John Terry of the England captaincy for the second time in two years over a charge for which he has not yet been tried, Fabio Capello has decided that he's had enough of being disrespected and undermined and resigned from his position. With Euro 2012 mere months away, FA chairman David Bernstein must find a suitable replacement to lead England out of the current cycles of scandals and disappointment.

I wrote yesterday that Fabio Capello And FA were set for a fireworks meeting today with neither site apparently ready to concede ground over John Terry.

Well after meeting today, it became apparent that the two sides could no longer work together and the FA has announced that Fabio Capello has stepped down as England manager.

Fabio Capello isn't the only former England manager looking for a new gig. Sven-Goran Eriksson, out of work since he was sacked by Leicester in October, decided to join the many others offering their services for the Leeds job recently vacated by Simon Grayson. But Leeds chairman and cantankerous owl Ken Bates, was less than receptive to his offer.

Not exactly a great week if you're John Terry. More, after the jump:

So if you're keeping score at home, that's Social Media Neophytes/Journo Hacks/Chelsea Naysayers 3, John Terry 0. First he lost the armband, which, in fairness many of us accepted with relative understanding.

So, Fabio Capello quits as the England national coach. This is, perhaps, unsurprising considering the dog's abuse that he has taken while leading the national team through an almost flawless qualification campaign, before finding that the decision over who would take the England captain's arm-band was taken away from him without consultation.

Fabio Capello has resigned as England manager. The fallout from The FA's decision to remove John Terry's England captaincy must certainly have been a key issue in the decision by the Italian to resign. The decision by Capello to resign ...

Fabio Capello will not lead England to this summer's European Championship after resigning from his post as manager. The Italian's resignation comes following crunch talks with the FA over his outspoken criticism of the decision to strip John Terry of the England captaincy before his trial for allegedly racially abusing Anton Ferdinand.

The 2012 European Championship commences exactly four months from today, and England is looking for a new manager.

In a monumental development, Fabio Capello resigned from the helm of the English national team on Wednedsay. Capello had been public in his defense of John Terry after the FA stripped the Chelsea centerback of his international captaincy amid his involvement in a racial abuse scandal.
