It's hardly his fault is it?

True, but out of 15 world cups since '58 they did not qualify for 3 i.e. it's a stat based on 12 as opposed to a possible 15. Personally I do not think this invalidates my point.

You need to get some perspective here. Germany rolled out a new young team in 2006 and have been finalists or semi-finalists in every tournament since. England do the same and lose both first games. Progress?

This.

England have not lost both opening games since 56 apparently so this is the biggest let down for you. It was shite and if you are pinning your hopes on the latest set of technically inadequate and creatively inept players then I feel for you as you will be disappointed.

Were you born before 1956 then?

Golden generation. Here we go again.
