On the one hand, the current England manager probably shouldn't be offering shady advice to undercover reporters on how to get around the FA's third party ownership rules. That is not a good look.

A pint. Of wine. The man's a trailblazer; and this is precisely the kind outside-the-box thinking needed to improve England's prospects at major international tournaments.
He never should have Said Them Things, sure, but when you appoint such a maverick, and the FA surely knew what they were getting, you've got to take the rough with the smooth. One more chance?
