Jose Mourinho believes Euro 2008 will be worse off because of England's failure to qualify.
The miserable 3-2 defeat by Croatia at Wembley saw England finish in third place in qualifying Group E and led to the Football Association terminating the contract of head coach Steve McClaren after just 18 games.
Former Chelsea manager Mourinho has already emerged as a strong contender to replace McClaren, and the Portuguese has admitted his affinity with the English game.
He told Sky Sports News: "This is sad, a big loss for European football.
"I was always a supporter of the England national team and England's clubs.
"A European championships without England is not the same as one with them."
