Mangers being open to other ideas rather than rigid 4-4-2

systems adapting and playing different types of football other than that dictated by charles hughes. We had a perfect opportunity to move on in terms of tactics and playing style with the likes of Hoddle and Venables in charge of the England set-up, unfortunately the sits at the FA are rather to conservative. The England team is one of the top ten teams in the game... no better no worse.... the quaterfinal stage...that is our level.
