Eddie Jones has reiterated that he has no desire to remain as England head coach beyond the 2019 Rugby World Cup, claiming that the job is too "emotionally draining" to continue for another cycle.
The 56-year-old has enjoyed a dream first year in charge of the Red Rose, winning all 13 Tests and claiming a first Grand Slam success for his side in more than a decade.
Jones does not see himself in the job beyond the end of his current deal and will instead step aside no matter what happens in Japan, but hopes to bow out three years from now with England at the top of the game.
"Four years is enough. It is emotionally draining," he told The Times. "England should be the most dominant team in Europe. We should think we can beat everyone. I want us to have that attitude: we are dominant, the biggest team in Europe and we play like that.
"Like the old Manchester United side, the same as the All Blacks - the All Blacks have a couple of points' head-start in games because people expect to be beaten by them. I want our team to have that. I think we are getting there."
England are back in action in February when they begin their Six Nations defence with a home match against France.
