        Can't comment on that but I don't think he tolerates fools or incompetence. :dunno:

          I seem to remember when he threw a photographers camera in the river or some such because he was having a bad time.
          He's fine if he gets treated like a god, any less and he has a tantrum.
          But just my thoughts.

            This French team are shockers. They're keeping pressure on us but as soon as it's returned they hack our players down!

                  Not an unexpected result but disappointing all the same. Too many questionable calls by the ref for me, it left me wondering how honest the tournament is. C'est la vie.

                    I think there were a few dodgy calls by the ref, Kane missing the penalty was the deciding factor though.
                    We usually go out on penalties but not in that way.
