That remembers me a lot about all that was being said about Aimé Jacquet (the French squad coach from 1994 to 199 in the build up to the 1998 WC victory. His decisions brought controversy (ie. leaving out King Eric and Ginola out), but the man was building a team and not just summing up the stars.

The team's preparation games were awful, critics getting personal on him etc... with the end result that we know and everyone begging him to stay.


That's all I wish for England.
