I think the media may misread this a little, but won't really care.

A lot of people I speak to are more concerned about the players than the manager, and are now happy to acknowledge that Sven wasn't s**t, but actually our best manager since Ramsey. Despite a couple of odd decisions, but was also rather hamstrung by the s**t luck of ALWAYS having a key player injured right before a tournament.

The media don't care though, and there are enough of the jinogistic idiots out there that will buy their "he doesn't get England" rubbish to add the momentum to their campaign to get rid of ANOTHER england manger because he doesn't like the press.

I REALLY REALLY REALLY hope 'Arry is the next england boss. When he fails it must surely put the whole 'English' argument to bed.
