 English Public has mixed feelings about Merson.
It has taken the FA more than a month to find what the english press have called " The Man", the next England Manager. Today the Fa finally appointed Clive Merson, the man who led Arsenal to 2 league titles, 1 fa cup and an appereance in the Champions League Final in 2005( losing to Real Madrid). Now we at the BBC ask the fans what they think about the new manager :
" I think he is a very good choice,he is passionate and did a great job at Arsenal,he will do well for England"
Paul Brenan,from London
" He is a good manager but he won't go far with England"
James Stelton from Wallsall
" He is not the manager England need for World Cup Glory,Guus Hiddink or Marcello Lippi would have been better. Merson was not even a good player for England,he cost us the World Cup in 1982. "
Jane Macratea, from Liverpool
Whatever the fans think, Merson's first match will could not be tougher despite being a friendly, against Belgium away,however it should be said that Merson had the opportunity to cancel this friendly but didn't. All shall be revealed on 2nd september and Merson has his first competitve game on the 6th September away to Romania.
Merson almost led Arsenal to Champions League glory in 2005
