The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

But I always think it's a bit of a con when the manager falls back on.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

Yeah, I was watching slightly different games.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

I'm on a higher level.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

And what you don't understand is that we play some brilliant football despite our 5-0 defeat.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

You know, we actually, you know, if you break it down on the data, we look fantastic.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

But yeah, I mean, I do think there is another thing where coaches do have a different eye for the game than we do.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

And we're, of course, focused on outcome.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

And they are trying to see a progression.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

And you can see, but Gareth fell, Southgate fell on this quite a lot.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

And Tuchel's done it quite recently, saying, well, yeah, but it might have been a bad defeat.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

But I saw some things that were quite encouraging.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

When you showed me that formation of 4-2-4 with Bobby in central midfield, I just thought, I mean, that can't, even in the 60s, that can't work.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

Yeah, I mean, the key thing is Bobby Charlton is perhaps your best attacking player.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

How can we make the system serve him?

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

And that is what Ramsey is going to do spectacularly well at the World Cup.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

Which, again, I think speaks to Ramsey's brilliance.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

It takes a very brave man to leave out an iconic figure.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two
