Fair enough - I don’t see it as a downer

I see it as a realistic assessment of his managerial ability / style.

Pragmatic, relatively well organised, relies on having good players.

There’s nothing modern or innovative about it, but that’s ok.

Out of curiosity, what are you expecting his managerial trajectory to be once leaving the England post?
