Unfortunately one (of a long list) who rather lost the plot as the England manager.
What he achieved at club level with Watford was certainly something anyone would have been proud of..
R.I.P.

No-one can doubt he did a superb job at Watford guiding them to 2nd place in the top tier and an FA Cup final.
Unfortunately he will always be remembered for "Swedes 2 Turnips 1" when England were eliminated from Euro 1992 and he substituted top goalscorer,Gary Lineker,with 20 minutes to go.....maybe,harshly because of that......RIP.
Just when I thought our chance had passed,you go and save the best for last.
