ADAMS: MCCLAREN REMINDS ME OF TAYLOR

Former England captain Tony Adams has said that Steve McClaren reminds him of Graham Taylor.

Adams, now assistant to Harry Redknapp at Portsmouth, was part of Graham Taylor's squad that famously failed to reach the World Cup in 1994.

And Adams thinks that there are worrying similarities between the much maligned Taylor and the current holder of the England job.

He said in The Sun: "I saw the pressure getting to Graham.

"It manifested itself in indecision, agitation and a lack of true confidence.

"They were turbulent times, with some indifferent performances and sudden switches in tactics.

"There seem to be quite a few similarities between Graham and Steve."
