Lol. What?
He put them in a position not to lose.

If he wanted to put them in a position to win then maybe let Grealish Sancho and Rashford loose for 30 minutes on tired Italian legs instead of continuing with the toothless and ineffective Kane Sterling and Mount.

The writing was on the wall. It wasn't working with them three.

And I'd argue El Tel and Bobby Robinson were far superior managers than him.

*edit* Cole's notes.
