LONDON (Reuters) - New England coach Steve Borthwick said on Monday that he did not always get his best performances onto the pitch as a player in the test arena and says he is determined to help the current team avoid having the same regrets once they stop playing.

Borthwick, a tough lock and lineout specialist, played for England from 2001-2010 but had a frustrating career that featured 29 wins, 27 defeats and a draw.
