It was, although he's not proud of the Euros and then he quit after the game at Wembley.
in the qualifiers for the World Cup.
They got knocked out in the group stage at the Euros.
But again, Keegan came in, and English football still suffers from this problem.
He was a response to the manager who had gone before.
Glenn Hoddle had resigned as England manager because, as the late George Byrne put it, he was the only manager ever to have resigned because of his views on the transmigration of souls.
And he was seen as somebody who didn't motivate the players.
The players found him odd and didn't get on with him.
They said, what we need is a motivator.
Get us a motivator.
And they picked Keegan.
And Keegan...
could do that, but I don't think international football suited him and he wasn't an analyst.
He wasn't somebody who could identify problems.
He said he knew what was wrong with the England team, but he didn't know how to fix it.
And his enthusiasm is the thing that he was brought in for.
And that was the thing that he brought in to manage him.
And that's what he harnessed at Newcastle.
