I always thought Fergie was brilliant at that. You couldn't pin all of his teams down to exactly one style, unless you count winning as a style.
I just think the presenter is handpicking info. He mentioned 92 and 94 but not 90 and 96 (Englands only two semifinal appearances). Not to mentioned they lost to Norway in 93. Norway weren't exactly Spain.
