It's the bit that'll stop him using the other parts of his game, like strength, vision, superb decision making, shooting and sheer football intelligence. Maybe he needs a few anger management lessons from Sir Alex and Roy Keane.
Mind you, being put out on the left wing and being told by Sven after the game that 'they were all playing where they play for their clubs' would rile anyone. He's a second striker, a No. 10, pure and simple, and if you play him there he'll be the best in the world in three years time (after Bergkamp retires, of course).

To be honest even England playing poorly should be able to beat a team with players from Plymouth and Southampton Reserves.

Give them a bit of credit - they had four (count 'em) Premiership players*, which is no worse than many international teams, and are on an upwards roll (unlike Wales, of course). 116th in the world is a reflection of how crap they were the last few years, not recently.
Just for fun, here are the tabloid headlines:
Daily Mail: Sack the Swede
Daily Star: Sack the Swede
The Mirror: Sack the clot
The Sun: Taxi for Eriksson
