He seemed his most unsettled in the dugout last night of any of our matches. He was emotional and obviously frustrated.

When we got the red against B&H he didn't display much, he just went to work. He didn't respond with spastic subs, he observed & monitored then around 75 made his effective subbing. I was impressed by his nature all tournament including not giving a fuck about nobody's business but the Turks.

I thought before last night if I were a strong club I would grab him & guarantee him 5 years to make sure I work with a good manager and build a team with him.

Our team not showing up much I shall not lay at his feet.

Ned shit the bed, Germany shit the bed, it happens. We should not have faced Belgium, but Senegal COMPLETELY shit the bed. Shit happens.

But everything I saw on the field last night was very highly paid very well-trained professionals not taking their jobs seriously or at least puckering far too severely. Belgium didn't even start DeBoyband or Lukaku. Probably great decisions, shake things up. But our players did miserable work last night.
