"There's more chance of me flying Concorde to the moon blindfolded than there is of him taking Wales to the South African World Cup.
"John Toshack told us to judge him after the European qualifying games. The truth is we have gone a long way backwards.
"I do hope he doesn't start the 'we'll make it to South Africa' stuff because that would be utterly ridiculous and we all know it."
Savage and Toshack fell out over two years ago. There's no love lost between the men and Savage's strong words suggest they are as far apart as ever.
"I do hope we aren't going to get a load of stuff about how Wales will qualify for South Africa," he said.
"It's not going to happen and as a Wales fan I'm as dejected as the rest of the nation.
"Only 25,000 turned up for a qualifier against one of the world's best teams - that tells you everything.
"Just a few years ago under Mark Hughes we beat Germany in a friendly at the Millennium Stadium in front of 75,000 - that tells you how far we've sunk."
Savage believes the time has come for a change of manager.
"I think the time has come to make a change at the top and Chris Coleman has to be a candidate.
"He did well at Fulham and is a young man with ideas. We need that because we can't go on as we are."
