Given the short time he has been in charge I think he did OK - but for one point. Most of the players play in teams that pass short and quick with the occasional long diagonal pass - why was Hart and some of the defence booting it long. Even if an England player got to it first there was no support for him.
There was a great need for a midfield architect - another Scholes or similar, Gerrard & Parker had to be too defensive to be able to control the game so for long periods we were without the ball.
Whatever happened to the ruling that there could only be so many foreign players in a team?
