'Not happy with the performance' – so why do England keep winning?

England fought hard to beat Norway in the World Cup quarter-final on Saturday, but manager Thomas Tuchel is clearly concerned.

“We made life very difficult for ourselves,” Tuchel said. “The result is fantastic but I’m not happy with the performance.”

He did follow these quotes up by commending the players for their heart: “I’m impressed with the effort, team spirit and belief to overcome adversity.

“But I am also a football coach and I think we can play better. We had a lot of momentum swings for both teams. We made life difficult in the way we played, sloppy, a lot of technical mistakes, not fast enough, not repetitive enough.”

So, what did he want to see? And more importantly, if the side aren’t playing as they should be, why do they keep on winning?
