McClaren biding his time
15 Feb 2008 - 09:22:23
Former England head coach Steve McClaren has revealed that he has turned down several offers to get back into the game in the last few months.
McClaren has been out of football since being axed after failing to guide England to the European Championship finals, but he says he is waiting for the right opportunity to come along.
He told BBC Sport: "My next job will be about the person employing me as much as anything, he has to have vision and be ambitious.
"It's got to be a challenge. That might be abroad or in the Championship.
"Before I went to Middlesbrough, Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson told me 'pick the chairman, not the club'.
"I was lucky I picked Steve Gibson, who believed in my philosophy and gave me time. Given time, if you have got the right philosophy, you will succeed.
"I have had offers, mainly from abroad, but none that have really excited me."
