Saw him when he brought Man City to St James Park last season.
He showed amazing passion for the game. He spent the whole game in "the technical area" and kicked every ball. In fact he was told to get off the pitch by the ref at one point when he ran on to get the ball for his players throw in.
Top bloke.

Will always remember Psycho volunteering (and scoring) the penalty at some Euro/World cup game after he'd missed one at the last tournament. Awesome. Can't think of many who've donned the shirt since then that have truly had such passion for the national team.
Even if being an outstanding player doesn't necessarily make you a good manager, just having him in the dressing room must do something to get the players 'up for it'. Much like Lawrence Dallaglio did at the last Rugby World Cup.

Yeah good choice. He'll be the manager in waiting then. McClaren had better hair though.

He's a pasionate, decent bloke who isn't afraid to stand up to critisism and doesn't use excuses. What's not to like?
His first real managers job was city, he did well for a while then it went pear shaped - doesn't mean he's a bad manager.
Good appointment I reckon.

Slim chance of that with England. I think he's only been offered the position as he did such a good job of interpreting for Capello at a recent news conference. It was such a good job some people thought Capello had been dubbed with Pearce, but I saw through it.

Hmmm. Pearcey does have a no-compromise attitude. On the other hand not the brightest bloke.
