From the BBC.

All in all it's been a disappointing tenure from the great man. We had an abject world cup and the buck stops with the man who makes the calls.

Johnson put too much faith in the players he'd played with himself. Maybe he was just too close in age to his charges.

Interesting Mallett and White have both already distanced themselves from the gig.

Henry said he fancied manging in Europe again, didn't he...?
