GRAHAM Gooch says England has to weather the storm of abuse and ridicule coming its way in its broken Ashes campaign.
The former captain turned England batting coach said there was no lack of effort by the beleaguered tourists who had just been outpointed by a "totally dominant" Australia.
"I think there has been a lot of fight over last 3-4 years," Gooch said.
"If you look at our record in the past year (England had been unbeaten in Tests since November last year before this tour), this team has been a good team and has played very good cricket.
"But this series, it's not working out. We've not played good cricket; not been allowed to play good cricket by Australia and they've got a settled team.

"You can't say we haven't worked in the practice and training area, but it's not happened on the field.
"Everyone's got to look at their role and see how they can improve. Our performance is not acceptable to English cricket."
Gooch said it had been a "shock to everyone" that Graeme Swann had retired and that he'd leave "a big hole" in the English line-up.
"It's always disruptive when people go. You come out with a plan, with what you think your team is going to be and how it will play … and it clearly hasn't worked out," Gooch said.

"You have to take that on the chin, get what's coming our way and we have to move on.
"When you're 3-0 down, there's always going to be a lot of noise around in the media and people (looking) for off-the-ball stories and anything to harp on.
"But the simple fact is we've been outplayed with the ball, the ball and in the field."
"We've just got to look at ourselves - the coaching staff, players, everyone - and say our performance has not been acceptable and we've got to improve on that, starting Boxing Day."
