Belgium Searching for a New Coach......

Having failed to qualify for the World Cup for the first time since 1978, Belgium are facing a search for a new coach.

However, perhaps unsurprisingly in a country divided into Dutch-speaking Flanders and French-speaking Wallonia, achieving a consensus on a single ideal candidate will be a tough task.

In Wallonia, the preferred choice is former international Marc Wilmots.

For Flemish Belgians, René Vandereycken looks the best option.

Other possibilities include popular Galatasaray SK coach Eric Gerets, R. Charleroi SC's Jacky Mathyssen or KRC Genk's Hugo Broos.

However, Denmark coach Morten Olsen's name has been whispered in some circles.

Preud'homme has some thinking to do. "By early January at the latest we will have a new boss for the Red Devils," he promised. "The draw for UEFA EURO 2008 is on 27 January, and I want the coach to be in attendance."

** I know we have a few Belgians that post regularly, who is your pick? Please, everyone voice their opinion on this important subject (at least for the Belgians).....

Tough job to take on - Should be an old Belgian International if all follows suit!

Olsen would be a good choice!

They did it! well done! we've been waiting for this moment for a very long time! how many times have i watched belgium playing, and all the shitty tactics that have been chosen. I really wonder who will apply for the job because it's kinda tough!
