There was no round of 16 then so technically they didn't actually go further in terms of rounds - just less teams.It's no coincidence that England's best tournament under Hodgson was Euro 2012, where they played negative football. Alright, they did also have a leader in defense in Terry, something they've lacked in both Brazil and France, but still, they made the quarter-finals and lost on penalties to Italy by being negative. Not great, but at least better than being knocked out after 90 minutes by Iceland.
Basically Hodgson won 3 from 11 in tournament football - having seen the rubbish he served up in his time at Anfield, this comes as no surprise. The man is a bluffer - because he articulates himself quite well and is English he fooled everyone for 4 years. I mean how the feck did he retain his job after the WC in Brazil - it was beyond shite.
