1 - In spite of the initial vast inferiority in number, thanks the mistakes and slowness of Ney, the British were able to prevent the vital position of Quatre-Bras from being seized by the French on June 16th, thus allowing Wellington to cover Bruxelles and redeploy his army at Waterloo.
2 - After his defeat at Ligny, Bluecher was able to cheat the pursuing French forces under Gouchy reaching the battlefield of Waterloo just in time to attack the French right wing, between the 6,30 and the 7,00 PM before the Wellington Army collapsed in the centre after the lost of La Haie Sainte.
3 - During the fighting at Waterloo, the erroneous tactical decisions of Ney badly damaged the French Army provoking huge uncessary losses and waste of time, which were very important to determine the final outcome of the battle, in favour of Wellington and the allies..
4 - Napoleon's responsability as commander in chief cannot be ignored. Indeed after having dictated and distributed to the subordinates his battle plan, he seemed as hit by a sort of apathy that led him to take no further or very little interest in the course of the events on the field, during the very important phases of battle. That means that the things were left mainly in Ney's hands what was disastrous to the fortunes of the French Army.
