Never mind the b ****** s

AS we ‘enjoy’ another autumn international break and the chance to see England proudly march past giants like Lithuania and Malta en route to World Cup disappointment, let’s take a second to hear how the man in charge of the last national side to qualify for a major tournament is getting on.

After Saturday’s mauling at Old Trafford, Roy Hodgson (above) was asked how he planned to help Crystal Palace pick up their first point of the season. He answered that the lads he puts out in the next game will have to “run their b ****** s off to try to do the best job they can possibly do”. English coaching? The best in the world.
