Fair comment, even with the players available, we should have done a lot, lot better in tournaments over the past 3 decades. But ultimately, we are miles off the pace compared to most similar sized Western European countries.
I can't be doing with blaming the manager. He's just another in the production line of competent bosses that will have no significant impact on performances. We will qualify, we will stink in Russia, we *might* get as far as the quarters, providing our players break the habit of recent times...
