UGO MONYE feels Eddie Jones’ time as England boss has ‘run its course’ – comparing where he is to Jose Mourinho’s last days at Chelsea.

“The moment you start losing the faith in the fans it becomes very difficult,” said Monye. “That’s the spot we’re in right now. England need to figure out whether they stick or twist.

“They’ve regressed since 2019. We haven’t beaten anybody in the top five in the world in the last 12 months, in the top 10 the only teams we’ve beaten are Australia, Wales and Japan.
