Stuart Pearce has said that England Under-21s' performance at the U21 Euro 2013 should not affect his job as coach of the side.
The Young Lions tamely saw their competition end with a defeat to hosts Israel this evening that meant they failed to notch a single point at the tournament.
Speaking afterwards, Pearce said: "In regard to my future, my mentality has not changed in 10 days, when I spoke to [the press] and gave you the heads up on what my mentality would be. Results in this tournament have not effected that one iota.
"I've no idea [whether this will impact my chances]. When you look around Europe over six years and see that our team is the only team that has been here four times running.
"We've lost very few games, bar this tournament, in tournament football over the years and played some very good football over that time, so there's a middle ground somewhere."
The 51-year-old's contract is due to expire later this month.
