[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 577719, member: 40658"] This! A coach is usually appointed just after a WC, usually due to the performance of his predecessor. When a coach is appointed, it is made very clear to him, that the goal is to win the next World Cup. with some other checkpoints inbetween like keeping a win record above 50% and so on. But the main purpose is to win the NEXT World Cup. the Emphasis is on the NEXT one. a coach's lifespan nowadays is maximum 4 years of being in charge of the National team, and then move on, either a successful one or not. When people look back at the coach's performance, a few stellar performances would stand out, but everyone will talk about the time he was in charge during a world cup and how the team did at the WC when he was in charge. The inbetween tours, up north or down here, doesn't really have such an influence as we might think, unless the team loses every game. [/QUOTE]
