OWEN COYLE believes Roy Hodgson can make England great again.

And the Bolton boss says the FA were lucky to have two outstanding English candidates for the vacant manager's job.
The news means Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp — favourite when Fabio Capello left the job in February — will step aside.
But Coyle, whose side host Spurs at the Reebok Stadium on Wednesday, says it was simply a case of two good names in the frame.
Reacting to the news of Hodgson talks, he said: "It didn’t surprise me.
“I always felt it was between the two of them. There was the clamour for Harry and we all understand why.
“But it didn’t surprise me that they then tried to approach Roy.
“I am absolutely thrilled. If Roy decides to take the job, there is no doubt he ticks every box in terms of what England are looking for.
“He has a proven track record and international experience. Obviously people made a lot of Harry being the favourite and I think you have two outstanding candidates there.
“If it is an English manager you are looking for, then those are the two you certainly would have been looking to choose between.
“Harry was always going to be a difficult one because of the compensation involved but Roy is a terrific manager, someone I have a lot of time for and I have no doubts he can bring real success to the England national team.”
