I've never rated him as a manager. He got a dream draw in the World Cup and failed against Croatia and then another great draw on home soil in the Euros and failed again.
He's been dining out on getting far in tournaments but for the draws he's had in those tournaments and the quality of players he's had, who all play in the best league in the World, then he should be making finals and probably winning.
The World Cup even with a good draw they still only scraped past Columbia on penalties and then fell to Croatia.
In the Euro's they only had 1 major test on route to the final against the Germans and then in the final they played in defensive mode on their home ground and were deservedly beaten.
He should have won at least 1 of those tournaments, he had the best opportunity of any England manager in my lifetime.
Time to change manager, although I don't see any English managers out there with a good CV at present. All the top jobs in this country are managed by foreign managers.
