Englands performance in the World Cup has dimmed whatever success he had with Leeds. The inability to get players to gel is a major cause for concern.

Whilst it was disappointing, he had the players for only a few weeks, so it is difficult to write him off after that.

Perhaps we should just look at the fact that many players went into that tournament off form, and the Aussies and Kiwis were white hot.

Had there been a normal seeded draw, we wouldn't have looked half as bad. You'd think that the likes of Ireland, Tonga and France had beaten us.
