FERDINAND: I'D TAKE THE ENGLAND JOB

The former Manchester United defender believes a lack of
team structure is behind the Three Lions' shortcomings and
has admitted he would relish the chance to take charge
Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand has admitted he
would relish the chance to manage England following the departure
of Roy Hodgson.
Sam Allardyce is the current bookmakers' favourite for the Three
Lions job, with reports claiming USA coach Jurgen Klinsmann has also
been interviewed.
But Ferdinand, who won 81 caps with the national team, has now
offered a diagnosis of England's disastrous showing at Euro 2016 in
an interview with Copa 90 , and has also expressed an interest in
entering management.
"When you don't know your starting XI when you get to the
tournament, and you don't know your best formation, there's a
problem," he said.

"When you perform in a team, individuals can only perform to their
greatest ability when the platform at the bottom is set, the
foundations are set... the structure, the understanding of what you
want your team to do.
"When a player then is not performing too well as an individual, he
can fall back on that platform of structure, the team, the unity.
Ferdinand then adds: "That's why I should be a manager." When
asked if he would take the England job, he replies: "All day."
