Can the recent England fiasco teach business anything?
Yes (But I will give my answer at the bottom)
It is a simple fact that England where a total embarrassment in the 2014 World cup so far 2 games played 2 games lost and the real and scary prospect of going out not having won a single game, now doesn't that make you cringe.
But why.?
Well apart form the issue I have discussed in my previous blog following this link:
The following strikes me as reasons:
Well/overpaid players been on the squad simple because of their name I mention no name wait yes I do Wayne Rooney, who further seem to feel they deserve a place on the squad. Not based on merit but simple because who they are.
They seemed to be a major lack of pride and passion in the England squad. Caused by the above I deserve my place because I am X attitude. After all I am the top earning English player in the world so I must be the best and must automatically get on the squad.
No one seems to have earned it.
This seems to be the same problem Spain faces the two nations with the biggest and richest leagues seem to have created the same problems for them selves due to the abundance of money and Hugh wages creating huge egos this caused the reigning world to crash and burn even more than England.
The Fa has to take heed and act fast or we will keep suffering year in year out.
Does the manager need replacing? Normally I would say no it is to fast. But this time yes he played the status quo of English football and it is broken. It time to change big time. Drop Rooney and co fast and start again ego has and is ruining English Football. (among other things) wipe the slate clean start again.
Not all the faults that caused this disaster of football. Are the fault of the players and the manager just most of them.
Any Solutions?

Any Solutions?
- Play more friendly s (it will improve team cohesion)
- The England squad need to join up earlier before major tournaments
Can these situation teach/show business anything?
Yes but what?
As I think Ego caused a huge part of this nasty situation it can and has showed us what Ego can do in a business. In the case of the England players I think a factor in this was huge wages giving them an inflated Ego. And the same can and will/does happen in the world of business. Yes you should pay talent well but not inflated wages. In a business setting it can have the same results.
A great example of this is/maybe the bankers. Who were just like footballers lock in the never ending circle of every raising wages not thought results but because x is paying y so company x has to pay y to keep them. And we all know what happen in that sector don't we.
Ego caused by other root cause can also be damaging.
Unchecked Ego is dangerous very. Would you let a lion in your office no of course not so why would you let unchecked ego in. Ego Is not the same as pride or passion just remember that we want those in our people. But we want to no need to avoid Ego like the plague.
