Scotland have 'plenty of good candidates', says Alex McLeish I don't know if Billy wants the job. I'm sure if he was asked it would be a different story. I'm not so sure Billy would put himself forward for the job. But again another good candidate. I brought Billy into the international set-up, knowing what a great coach he was. McLeish's personal preference is a return to club football after leaving Aston Villa. "It's not something I'm actively pursuing," he added. I feel I've got unfinished business in club football and I still harbour the day-to-day involvement. McLeish praised Levein for widening the search for talent and incorporating players not previously involved in the Scottish set-up. The former Rangers and Birmingham boss also believes the playing pool is better than when he was in charge and that they must take some responsibility for Levein's departure. "I do feel we've got some good talent in the squad and Craig has sown some good seeds for the next manager coming in," McLeish added. A lot of them (the players) were stating publicly that they could have done a lot better for Craig. If whoever that is can galvanise the players to raise their game a little bit I don't see why we can't start winning international games. Alex McLeish was speaking at a Positive Coaching Scotland (PCS) "Success through Effort: Mastery Coaching" seminar at Hampden Park. Vogts feels for Levein Former Scotland manager Berti Vogts has expressed his sympathy with Craig Levein and warned that a change of manager alone will not cure the country's recent struggles. The German coach, who guided his homeland to the Euro 96 title, held the Scotland job between 2002 and 2004 but endured a fractious relationship with fans and media before resigning. Levein's tenure ended in similarly disappointing fashion when he was dismissed earlier this month and the Scottish Football Association are currently assessing potential successors. But Vogts, currently in charge of Azerbaijan and speaking ahead of his side's World Cup qualifier against Northern Ireland, believes the problems run deeper than the manager's office. "I heard about Craig Levein only yesterday...I know how he feels," said Vogts. When you take over Scotland you have to live with certain things, with the Scottish media and a lot of poor players. I understand, yes. Expectations are too high, always. They do not invest many pounds in youth and you have to do that. When I took over I brought in over 12 youngsters. I brought in a young Darren Fletcher after I saw him in a youth tournament. He was 17 years of age and the journalists attacked me and said he was too young but he is an excellent player. Asked to pass comment on who might get the job next, he added: "Who will it be? Maybe Joe Jordan or Gordon Strachan. Maybe they should do it together.
