The late, great Sir Bobby Robson took charge of 95 matches as England manager, more than any of the 11 others who have followed in the footsteps of fellow Knight of the Realm, Sir Alf Ramsey.
Robson’s greatest achievement with the Three Lions came at the 1990 FIFA World Cup Italy™, when he led them to the semi-finals – the nation’s best performance to date on foreign soil.
Predictably, penalties cost the English on that occasion, with West Germany going on from their shootout success to beat Argentina 1-0 in the final, while Robson moved on to PSV Eindhoven.
