Results matter, but in saying how effective a manager's ability is, you can basically ignore it.
I mean, if Roy Hodgson's team dominate all their games in possession and chances, but Harry Kane cant score a tap in from 5 yards, how is that a mark on Roy? Ok, England were pretty rubbish in the second half vs Iceland, but they had chances to get back in and objectively were the better side, and both goals were appalling defensive or keeping lapses that cant be tactically his fault.
On the flipside, Coleman's teams have been outplayed in most games, but is he a good manager because keepers keep throwing awful free kicks blasted straight at them in their net? Or when people like Lukaku forget where the net is?
Sorry, Id rather have the manager of the team that have 75% possession and 25 shots a game, rather than 2 shots a game that inexplicably go in for a game they have been dominated in.
