    Playing two Fellainis was a bold move.

    If he has FA Cup with Wigan and World Cup with Belgium on his CV you'll have to hand it to him

    How many years did he keep Wigan in the Prem by the skin of their teeth? Can't all have been luck.

    A decent manager and a likable bloke. Probably better suited to managing the underdog, but doing a good job with a talented Belgium side. They've ridden their luck a bit in the last two games, but they have some wonderful players - Hazard, De Bruyne and Courtois would get in any team in the world.

    Good thing we didn't win our group in the end, as there's no way we'd beat Brazil or France.
