International Career
For England, McManaman would forever remain an enigma at international level. England coaches, with the exception of Venables and Keegan, utilised McManaman's talents sparingly. McManaman was capped 37 times for England scoring three goals, and with the side only losing three times in the games that he played; two of them significant results- the infamous Euro 96 penalty shootout defeat to Germany at Wembley in 1996, and the opening day defeat against Portugal in Euro 2000.

Famous quotes containing the word career:
“A black boxer’s career is the perfect metaphor for the career of a black male. Every day is like being in the gym, sparring with impersonal opponents as one faces the rudeness and hostility that a black male must confront in the United States, where he is the object of both fear and fascination.”
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
