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

I mean, that is quite smart, although it might have cost him had he lost against Jurgen.

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

And does this also show the values he talked about in part one of going to Mundalito and he's really broadened the side's knowledge of playing against South American sides, because obviously that's a key part of the World Cup.

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

So he's got a specific plan for Uruguay, which is probably honed because of his experience of South American football.

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

Yeah, well, speaking as a former journalist, I can imagine Brian James going, I didn't write the headline.

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

Did you read my match report?

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

It's quite considered.

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

And then someone back at a desk has just gone, right, this lot's rubbish.

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

But there's another male journalist very much in the tone of the mail.

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

I love that you've quoted JL Manning.

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

Tell us about JL Manning and what his diagnosis of the problem is.

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

Completely alien to the male of today.

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

Can I just say that when snoods were a thing that the editor of the Daily Mail launched a campaign against snoods because it was sort of damaging the English game.

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

As a man who's devoted his life to advice about football tactics, I'm sure you concur with... What's his name?

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

JL Manning, I was going to say LL Cool J for a second there, but that's a different personality altogether.

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

The only thing I would sympathise with him on is, it does annoy me when there's a tactical nil-nil and people go, I mean, sometimes they are fascinating, but normally they're not.

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

And there's a lot of affectation around that, oh yes, but you know, normally it's a bad game.

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

But you see echoes of that, absolutely.

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

Well, I actually think that attitude's more common if you talk about data.

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

You would absolutely see that written about data in football today.

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

There are jargon words that are used, which I don't understand in football.
