As a French i'd like to congrat Gareth Southgate to becomes the first person in English football to be relegated as a player, club and international manager. No way that a french could get this achievement. So impressive
playing saka at left wing back for 70 minutes is a sackable offense in its self , he only reacts with substitutions when their is a change in the game like conceding a goal , instead of reacting to get a goal
Southgate blew a once in a lifetime chance making political gestures. Should've been sacked on the spot,except his masters at the FA probably agreed with it. .
Yeah nothing learnt nothing gained. Another build up to a major tournament wasted yet again . No identity no tactics just a bunch of headless chickens with no direction. How after all this time has he not built a team with a clear plan ? Madness. Please don't tell me he's planning on playing Maguire and Shaw at the world Cup? Guess he'd rather get sacked than upset his mates
ridiculous. We have 2 world class players, some good young players who haven't hit their peak yet and a mediocre midfield. No-one can be expected to win anything with that. Southgate turned a dreadful team into a great team very quickly and any manager we replace him with will definitely do worse. There are so many better teams than us in a World Cup, getting past the quarters will be a massive success for Southgate.
@@sigzil1985 how can you see into the future? Croatia had one world class player and they beat us (Modric) Italy had how many world class players? None really and we lost those 2 games.

Southgate has done well purely by being a somewhat likeable guy to the squad and galvanising the players, this is clear to see from the outside. But at a certain point you have to be more than liked, you have to be feared and respected. And he doesn't have that in him.
Don't worry come the world cup when they get out of the group we will be listening to its coming home again. Been coming home since 66 but still not arrived yet
England's first game in the world cup is against Iran, I suggest that England coach has a good look at Iranian team's performance against Spain and Portugal in last world cup, they came within a whisker of topping their group and this team now is much better and is a young team with established players in the European clubs. They are coached by Carlos Quires and are very motivated to play against USA and England with all the political issues going on in the background. The best thing for Iran is to be underestimated by their opponents in their group. The best and the most intense games of this world cup at group stages are going to be Iran's games. Mark my words.
@@johnbobby1092 : This is not funny yesterday Iran beat Uruguay 1-0 in a friendly match( if there ever was a friendly game against Uroguay). And guess who is in charge of Iran's team now, none other than Carlos Queiroz.
All this talk of having a great group of players is rubbish. We have some world class talent in Kane and a few others but we have massive weaknesses in key positions like centre half. Stones is ok but that is it. Truth is other countries have better players at the moment. Southgate had a lucky run of opponents in previous tournaments and bottled it.
'World class' Kane looks so average against a good defence. That term is thrown about so much in England, - I'd say they have a big, fat ZERO world class players!
Having really good players doesn't do you a lot of good if you don't use them. What's Madison gonna do in front of the TV? How many goals will Toney score from his favourite pub? Southgate is a joke for me.
You say we have key weaknesses at cb.... you think that might be because of Southgate picking out of form players who don't even play for their club while we have players in other countries tearing it up. Tomori looks fantastic yet we all know he doesn't have a real chance of playing, why? If we're playing a back 3 why isn't he picking smalling idk, he'd be great in a back where he doesn't need to be good on the ball
@@mitchellbrough1615 Tomori plays for an average team in an average league. He is not tested, not proven, and - let's be honest - if he was good enough then he'd be playing in the premier league. End of.
The England manager has the choice of ALL the best England players playing but like always they go for people they know rather than people in form , all a manager needs to do is pick a good team of inform players & motivate them to play,if he picks players that play week in week out in their respective positions 3/4’s of his job is done , no wonder vardy packed up playing ,what’s the point of playing a fast forward when we are lethargic in moving the ball quickly forward
@@jamesbong4928 I disagree,unfortunately we are in an age where we feel the need for full backs to run the length of the pitch to cross a ball or shoot that’s tiring & can’t be kept up for 90 mins ,so very often they are out of position which makes it easier for other teams to manipulate the situation, we tried having 11 captains on the pitch too which doesn’t work too many egos out there, defence is defence midfield a mixture of ball winners & creative players & attackers that are not clumsy wannabe defenders , let top class footballers show what they can do!
He just seems to be the only manager in England that has seen the "Pep Guardiola effect" on the premier league with every team from top to bottom being much more skill based and high tempo, and said " No! This is how English Football is played!". He's a fish out of water in this newish football.
We have had some great teams, this team is nowhere as good as the golden generation. In my view has done a great job. I just think he needs to be braver. But for all those who think we have to win, you need to look at what we have done before Southgate. We were so poor previously, despite the budgets, the Premier league etc.
One of the biggest problems is Raheem Sterling: this guy has no idea what to do creatively, in critical, tight areas. The fact he has flappy hands says everything about his internal thought process. He's merely a good player helped out by his pace, that's all. We won't win anything with him in the team. Declan Rice, as well, who's a limited player that is exposed at international level. The fact Gareth doesn't see this is highly concerning.
I, as a proud Englishman, will be cheering on Italy and Germany for these two games. It hurts me to say that but Southgate has proved with this decision to exclude Ivan Toney just how clueless he is.
A think England have missed there opportunity to win a tournament. And tht is Southgate fault in the World Cup he failed to make changes and tht cost them. In the euro’s final they had Italy on the rocks after shaw scored. And he went into a defensive shell and allowed Italy to get back into the game if he had a go at Italy imo they would have won the game.
Forget about the manager. Players aren't talented enough to win anything. Even the so-called golden generation was so overrated, those players were clueless soon as they face a decent team 😅
Southgate must be some kind of wizard, bewitching the nation’s journalist. How on earth can anybody be thinking he is the man for the job? He was responsible for the euro defeat, hands down. He is now toprdoing another generation.. he has to go now
He needs to go. Despite what you think of the players - England has more than enough quality to have not got relegated. Severe issues in selection, tactics, management. - South Out the Gate
@@Mr.93.20 it should be a goal not an entitlement. The entire back line quality means there is no chance of reaching the latter stages without playing pragmatic football
@@palashrawat401 I’m not referring to entitlement. Southgate is the wrong manager for this team. To win the World Cup he needs to get the most out of these players which playing defensive doesn’t do.
Yeah, I loath the England fans. They haven't won anything for years - yet there's no humility. Booing everyone's National Athem. Who do they think they are ? It's a shame because England rugby and cricket fans show way more respect.
Bunch of average to okay players that are used to being carried by foreign class lol not a single stand out player for their club in our team, even Kane isn't that good without Son 👀 Saka and possibly Bellingham are probably the best 2, after that, it's not really that good is it 😂
@@colinhughes916 I'm very happy you agree with me unlike some who are out of date and clueless,and I have said before she has coached a men's team before in her native country professionally,and we ain't winning anything until she is considered once rhe yes man southgate has been sacked or himself resigned,and I can't see the likes of Potter or Rodgers being mentioned better than sarina wiegman no chance
I am not a Southgate fan far from it but he is not the main reason why England cannot win a major trophy - we do not have a decent international let alone WC centre half and we haven’t had for many years
I saw southgate interview today on the Germany match tomorrow,saying he can make a difference on the England mens team,and is this guy for real and what has achieved in terms of trophies in 6 years in charge 🤔🧐 but sarina did in less than a year with England,and she made a difference bringing a trophy since 1966 and her record in winning trophies is insane 2 euro wins consecutively and a world Cup finalist
Please tell me I’m wrong, Bellingham as a holding midfielder?? We never learn. Playing players out of position. He plays not to lose, he doesn’t play to win. Huge problem with Southgate!
Not at this tournament it isn’t. The FA pinpointed Quatar as the tournament they were going to win, it’s what they have been building towards for the last 6 years. The fans also will not be happy with a semi final unless they performed really well and were unlucky against maybe a Brazil or France. They’ve seen the girls do it, well now it’s they’re turn
So don't sack Southgate because of the replacement options? Fast forward a few hours from this broadcast... England were crap, again. Southgate shows no tactical abilities to impact the match, again. The midfield was overrun, again. Played a right winger as a left-wingback. Rather than sacrifice an attacker to help the midfield, he changes to 4-4-2. Southgate is a dinosaur. His coaching staff are as lost as he is. Not sacking him, because of his contract and limited replacement options - which isn't true. Will continue this malaise. Pochettino is available right now.
For these games England should be playing all the players that are going to be in the squad for the World Cup. I have never understood why you want to experiment before the World Cup with players, A Manager should already know his starting 11 and his subs, 5 of them without question. Maybe take a look at a few backups or change your mind on the form they are in.
Be careful what you wish for, I remember the Iceland game. We were one penalty shoot out from the first major trophy in our lifetimes. We haven’t got the talent to play amazing football so I will settle for compact and hard to play Against.
"Getting to a semi final and final" amounted to getting two ridiculously easy draws, and then beating one decent team each time. People talk as though he climbed Mount Everest. He's mediocrity incarnate.
Yeah, England won soooo much before him. So many Euros, many world cups, always in contention for all international trophies,always amongst the last 4 or 8, damn, Brazil got nothing England! such a great footballing pedigree all ruined by Southgate.
Spot on. People only got entitled & expected us to win things because of the last 2 tournaments. Gareth’s a victim of his own success & now everyone’s acting like we have the best team in the world & he’s holding us back when in reality most the team are still young & haven’t got the experience when it comes to winning trophies
But the point is we HAD our best chance ever in the last Euro's final. You should never be satisfied finishing second when you should have finished first.
@@xiropigado only cus we got there in the first place did people get entitled & expect to win. Before the tournament nobody would have thought we’d get to the final. England teams of the past would have lost to Ukraine or Denmark never mind Germany
Kane is a top class forward but the team around him are poor hence the lack of goals from the lack of service , creating chances requires creative players and there are none in this team....
Welcome to the great British media where they try to knock and kick and shove and criticise and aggravate (Should I go on?) the national team before a major tournament.
People wouldn't mind Southgate so much if we at least played attractive attacking football instead of an endless succession of sideways and backwards passes.
Moral of the story. The vast majority of fans don't know a damn thing about football. England have one of the top 4 most talented, deepest squads in the world at the moment(Brazil, France, England, and Argentina). Southgate is a manager that does well with less because he manages defensively and conservatively. England should have won the Euros going away, yet they struggled to the final and lost to a much less talented team in Italy, but with a manager in Mancini that had tactical nous to make adjustments. England goes nowhere with Southgate. Period.
England are a decent international team with a few standout players, nothing more. They are weak in several important areas, particularly the back 6, and they have no meaningful back up to Harry Kane. If the WC pans out as you would expect they will meet France in the QF and will most certainly lose.
@@MaximusOwen1 dude your totally underestimating England. I agree about the defence but we have an insane attack. Kane, Rashford, Sterling, Sancho, Saka, Grealish, Foden. Any time with that kind of talent is capable of having the chance to win any tournament, even if we aren’t favourites.
He did well to get us to those semi/finals, what an amazing achievement. He has though access to probably the most talented pool of players, not talking first eleven, but strength in depth for many a decade. Despite this England have in the last 18-24 months slipped from being an exciting attacking team playing 4-3-3 with multiple options in the front 3 to a team that now doesn't have a best formation, that is tinkered with game on game, that has players playing out of position and most of all are utterly dire to watch. I dont mind England losing, as fans we can all deal with that, we have to. But losing like we did against Italy, we looked amateur, unbalanced, players all over the place...it was an utter shambles, and has been for the last year or so, and Southgate cannot fix it. Thats the issue.
The England team of 15-20 years ago was MUCH, MUCH, MUCH better than our current team. Go back and look. Look at our defence. Look at our midfield. Look at our attack... peak Rooney and Owen for a while. You are deluded.
The win ratio stat is unfair on most if not all previous managers. This England has more often than not been playing some pretty tiny nations in qualifiers, you can only beat what is in front of you but it makes the stat worthless in comparative terms. What is the win ratio against Belgium? Hungary showed them a clean pair of heels., twice. Too busy taking the knee and no clue on taking a corner.
Southgate was talk sports poster boy last tournament , they are full of nonsense, Danny Murphy reckons GS would be a good manager at Man U , more nonsense
It's still an absolute TRAVESTY that Harry Redknapp never got his chance. Best English man manager out there, terrible with money and a serial cup/knockout tournament winner... even with Portsmouth. The perfect international manager. I'll be livid until the day I leave this place.
He's done better than any other england manager since 1966 including bobby robson and terry venables. Sven goran eriksson failed with a better squad. If we sack southgate, who would replace him, and who could do a better job?
'Sillyness from the FA' is a kind way to put it Simon, because it's actually tragic, and the kind of pathetic thing that the FA do time and time again, and we all have to live with the consequences.
He’s a yes man for the FA. We can’t judge him on the semi final World Cup! Or the final of the euros! We didn’t play anyone decent,and once we did we got beat.. always the same!
Only Southgate can pick 12 defenders in his squad and still play a forward at wing back
You couldn’t make it up huh 👍🏻

Southgate has done well purely by being a somewhat likeable guy to the squad and galvanising the players, this is clear to see from the outside. But at a certain point you have to be more than liked, you have to be feared and respected. And he doesn't have that in him.
Sir Alex he is not.
This england meltdown is quality banter
Don't worry come the world cup when they get out of the group we will be listening to its coming home again. Been coming home since 66 but still not arrived yet
England's first game in the world cup is against Iran, I suggest that England coach has a good look at Iranian team's performance against Spain and Portugal in last world cup, they came within a whisker of topping their group and this team now is much better and is a young team with established players in the European clubs. They are coached by Carlos Quires and are very motivated to play against USA and England with all the political issues going on in the background. The best thing for Iran is to be underestimated by their opponents in their group. The best and the most intense games of this world cup at group stages are going to be Iran's games. Mark my words.
Southgate has had two very lucky draws and he has still failed to win anything.
@South Leeds Memories, you could argue that he's had a third lucky draw. It's not the strongest group in the World Cup with: USA, Wales and Iran.
It’s obviously our strategy is not good enough to win a major tournament. We need to b braver n make bold decisions
Simon 'yep.. morning. ....' Jordan
It will be difficult to get out of group If Wales and USA turn up.
@Solo Dreamy Traveller, absolutely - both those teams could, at least, hold England to a draw. Very interesting group.
Iran are as good as them.
England could well last a week!!
As it is we won't beat Iran 😂
@@johnbobby1092 : This is not funny yesterday Iran beat Uruguay 1-0 in a friendly match( if there ever was a friendly game against Uroguay). And guess who is in charge of Iran's team now, none other than Carlos Queiroz.
I think that england team would struggle to get out of a group that contained, port Vale morecambe, and tranmere
Southgate has To go now before the World Cup
All this talk of having a great group of players is rubbish. We have some world class talent in Kane and a few others but we have massive weaknesses in key positions like centre half. Stones is ok but that is it.
Truth is other countries have better players at the moment.
Southgate had a lucky run of opponents in previous tournaments and bottled it.
'World class' Kane looks so average against a good defence. That term is thrown about so much in England, - I'd say they have a big, fat ZERO world class players!
Having really good players doesn't do you a lot of good if you don't use them. What's Madison gonna do in front of the TV? How many goals will Toney score from his favourite pub? Southgate is a joke for me.
Agreed, England are overrated at the moment
You say we have key weaknesses at cb.... you think that might be because of Southgate picking out of form players who don't even play for their club while we have players in other countries tearing it up. Tomori looks fantastic yet we all know he doesn't have a real chance of playing, why? If we're playing a back 3 why isn't he picking smalling idk, he'd be great in a back where he doesn't need to be good on the ball
@@mitchellbrough1615 Tomori plays for an average team in an average league. He is not tested, not proven, and - let's be honest - if he was good enough then he'd be playing in the premier league. End of.
The England manager has the choice of ALL the best England players playing but like always they go for people they know rather than people in form , all a manager needs to do is pick a good team of inform players & motivate them to play,if he picks players that play week in week out in their respective positions 3/4’s of his job is done , no wonder vardy packed up playing ,what’s the point of playing a fast forward when we are lethargic in moving the ball quickly forward
They're just not good enough whichever average Joe he picks, simples.
@@jamesbong4928 I disagree,unfortunately we are in an age where we feel the need for full backs to run the length of the pitch to cross a ball or shoot that’s tiring & can’t be kept up for 90 mins ,so very often they are out of position which makes it easier for other teams to manipulate the situation, we tried having 11 captains on the pitch too which doesn’t work too many egos out there, defence is defence midfield a mixture of ball winners & creative players & attackers that are not clumsy wannabe defenders , let top class footballers show what they can do!
End of the day Southgate is a yes man. I wouldn't have him manage my own mob Rep Of Ireland team with lesser talent.
Rather kenny least not bored
Southgate has as much flair and panache as an undertaker very conservative in his tactics fits the bill of woke very well with the FA
Been saying this for years. I was abused for it. He is not good enough
England's midfield is quite average. Foden is essentially their best midfielder. Is Rice at that level? England isn't a very good football team?
My opinion is that Gareth is a nice chap but not a great tactician.
A yes man.
He just seems to be the only manager in England that has seen the "Pep Guardiola effect" on the premier league with every team from top to bottom being much more skill based and high tempo, and said " No! This is how English Football is played!". He's a fish out of water in this newish football.
People like Lee shouldn’t be allowed to give an opinion
We have had some great teams, this team is nowhere as good as the golden generation. In my view has done a great job. I just think he needs to be braver. But for all those who think we have to win, you need to look at what we have done before Southgate. We were so poor previously, despite the budgets, the Premier league etc.
Well said! When was the last time an England manager got us to penalties in a major final? He was a kick or 2 away from bringing it home!
One of the biggest problems is Raheem Sterling: this guy has no idea what to do creatively, in critical, tight areas. The fact he has flappy hands says everything about his internal thought process. He's merely a good player helped out by his pace, that's all. We won't win anything with him in the team. Declan Rice, as well, who's a limited player that is exposed at international level. The fact Gareth doesn't see this is highly concerning.
I, as a proud Englishman, will be cheering on Italy and Germany for these two games. It hurts me to say that but Southgate has proved with this decision to exclude Ivan Toney just how clueless he is.
Obviously you're not proud for football reasons
A think England have missed there opportunity to win a tournament. And tht is Southgate fault in the World Cup he failed to make changes and tht cost them. In the euro’s final they had Italy on the rocks after shaw scored. And he went into a defensive shell and allowed Italy to get back into the game if he had a go at Italy imo they would have won the game.
Forget about the manager. Players aren't talented enough to win anything. Even the so-called golden generation was so overrated, those players were clueless soon as they face a decent team 😅
With Southgate in charge they've NO CHANCE so boring hasn't a clue how to get the best from a very talented squad
Southgate must be some kind of wizard, bewitching the nation’s journalist. How on earth can anybody be thinking he is the man for the job? He was responsible for the euro defeat, hands down. He is now toprdoing another generation.. he has to go now
He needs to go. Despite what you think of the players - England has more than enough quality to have not got relegated. Severe issues in selection, tactics, management. - South Out the Gate
To say he needs to win it is completely mental. Do people not realize how many other teams could win it
England group isn’t that bad. Should be favorite to get out of that group up top, if they don’t that’s a concern.
Shouldn’t winning the tournament be the goal?
Its incredibly disrespectful to teams like France and Brazil who would be massive favourites against England whoever was managing us.
@@Mr.93.20 it should be a goal not an entitlement. The entire back line quality means there is no chance of reaching the latter stages without playing pragmatic football
@@palashrawat401 I’m not referring to entitlement. Southgate is the wrong manager for this team. To win the World Cup he needs to get the most out of these players which playing defensive doesn’t do.
Southgate is like owner of a Lamborghini, who’s fuelling it with diesel.
the first call is why everyone calls england fans arrogant and im english
Yeah, I loath the England fans. They haven't won anything for years - yet there's no humility. Booing everyone's National Athem. Who do they think they are ? It's a shame because England rugby and cricket fans show way more respect.
@@Inglese001 the booing of the anthems thing is rife TBF, shouldn't be but it is

I am not a Southgate fan far from it but he is not the main reason why England cannot win a major trophy - we do not have a decent international let alone WC centre half and we haven’t had for many years
Danny Murphy reckons Southgate should of been Man Utd next manager ! It is like recommending Harold Shipman as the sponge man . Danny, really ?
I saw southgate interview today on the Germany match tomorrow,saying he can make a difference on the England mens team,and is this guy for real and what has achieved in terms of trophies in 6 years in charge 🤔🧐 but sarina did in less than a year with England,and she made a difference bringing a trophy since 1966 and her record in winning trophies is insane 2 euro wins consecutively and a world Cup finalist
Please tell me I’m wrong, Bellingham as a holding midfielder?? We never learn. Playing players out of position.
He plays not to lose, he doesn’t play to win.
Huge problem with Southgate!
Whether he stays or goes should be dependant on how they play first of all, the result is a secondary consideration.
Southgate is the G.O.A.T
I guess ur joking
Maybe to just you and your family mate!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Spot on
I don't think Southgate is a good coach but if England makes the semi and lose then that's a success for him!
Not at this tournament it isn’t. The FA pinpointed Quatar as the tournament they were going to win, it’s what they have been building towards for the last 6 years. The fans also will not be happy with a semi final unless they performed really well and were unlucky against maybe a Brazil or France. They’ve seen the girls do it, well now it’s they’re turn
@@oracle8589 Nobody has ever pin pointed anything they HAVE to win. It's not an entitlement.
@@oracle8589 they havent won anything for over 50 years, dont pin your hopes on it
So don't sack Southgate because of the replacement options? Fast forward a few hours from this broadcast... England were crap, again. Southgate shows no tactical abilities to impact the match, again. The midfield was overrun, again. Played a right winger as a left-wingback. Rather than sacrifice an attacker to help the midfield, he changes to 4-4-2. Southgate is a dinosaur. His coaching staff are as lost as he is. Not sacking him, because of his contract and limited replacement options - which isn't true. Will continue this malaise. Pochettino is available right now.
id love to see Potter next
Bit busy with Chelsea isnt he
He'll be free at xmas when Chelsea sack him 🤣
@@robzombie5928 yeah Tuchel was busy too
So would I but I don't think Daniel Radcliffe will touch the England job with a quidditch stick.
Sarina wiegman is the answer
For these games England should be playing all the players that are going to be in the squad for the World Cup. I have never understood why you want to experiment before the World Cup with players, A Manager should already know his starting 11 and his subs, 5 of them without question. Maybe take a look at a few backups or change your mind on the form they are in.
Be careful what you wish for, I remember the Iceland game. We were one penalty shoot out from the first major trophy in our lifetimes. We haven’t got the talent to play amazing football so I will settle for compact and hard to play Against.
"Getting to a semi final and final" amounted to getting two ridiculously easy draws, and then beating one decent team each time. People talk as though he climbed Mount Everest.
He's mediocrity incarnate.
Yeah, England won soooo much before him. So many Euros, many world cups, always in contention for all international trophies,always amongst the last 4 or 8, damn, Brazil got nothing England! such a great footballing pedigree all ruined by Southgate.
Spot on. People only got entitled & expected us to win things because of the last 2 tournaments. Gareth’s a victim of his own success & now everyone’s acting like we have the best team in the world & he’s holding us back when in reality most the team are still young & haven’t got the experience when it comes to winning trophies
🤭😅😄🤣
But the point is we HAD our best chance ever in the last Euro's final. You should never be satisfied finishing second when you should have finished first.
@@xiropigado only cus we got there in the first place did people get entitled & expect to win. Before the tournament nobody would have thought we’d get to the final. England teams of the past would have lost to Ukraine or Denmark never mind Germany
Kane is a top class forward but the team around him are poor hence the lack of goals from the lack of service , creating chances requires creative players and there are none in this team....
Welcome to the great British media where they try to knock and kick and shove and criticise and aggravate (Should I go on?) the national team before a major tournament.
Southgate deserves to be criticised, England have never entered a tournament in such terrible form
@@Ayoung2028 yeah your right. It was after and I thought to myself nah we can’t molly coddle him or the team.
People wouldn't mind Southgate so much if we at least played attractive attacking football instead of an endless succession of sideways and backwards passes.
Moral of the story. The vast majority of fans don't know a damn thing about football.
England have one of the top 4 most talented, deepest squads in the world at the moment(Brazil, France, England, and Argentina). Southgate is a manager that does well with less because he manages defensively and conservatively. England should have won the Euros going away, yet they struggled to the final and lost to a much less talented team in Italy, but with a manager in Mancini that had tactical nous to make adjustments. England goes nowhere with Southgate. Period.
Portugal, Spain, Germany, Belgium & the Netherlands are better than England, mate.
England are a decent international team with a few standout players, nothing more.
They are weak in several important areas, particularly the back 6, and they have no meaningful back up to Harry Kane.
If the WC pans out as you would expect they will meet France in the QF and will most certainly lose.
@@MaximusOwen1 dude your totally underestimating England. I agree about the defence but we have an insane attack. Kane, Rashford, Sterling, Sancho, Saka, Grealish, Foden. Any time with that kind of talent is capable of having the chance to win any tournament, even if we aren’t favourites.
what premiere lge team would give ole southgate a managers job??
None! Jordan made this point some months ago and it's absolutely right.
Aston vile.
👍 KRO
Gareth Southgate will never win anything as a manager
He did well to get us to those semi/finals, what an amazing achievement. He has though access to probably the most talented pool of players, not talking first eleven, but strength in depth for many a decade. Despite this England have in the last 18-24 months slipped from being an exciting attacking team playing 4-3-3 with multiple options in the front 3 to a team that now doesn't have a best formation, that is tinkered with game on game, that has players playing out of position and most of all are utterly dire to watch. I dont mind England losing, as fans we can all deal with that, we have to. But losing like we did against Italy, we looked amateur, unbalanced, players all over the place...it was an utter shambles, and has been for the last year or so, and Southgate cannot fix it. Thats the issue.
The England team of 15-20 years ago was MUCH, MUCH, MUCH better than our current team. Go back and look. Look at our defence. Look at our midfield. Look at our attack... peak Rooney and Owen for a while. You are deluded.
Southgate the FA cheap option
The win ratio stat is unfair on most if not all previous managers. This England has more often than not been playing some pretty tiny nations in qualifiers, you can only beat what is in front of you but it makes the stat worthless in comparative terms. What is the win ratio against Belgium? Hungary showed them a clean pair of heels., twice. Too busy taking the knee and no clue on taking a corner.
Simon says silliness, I say cronyism.....
Southgate was talk sports poster boy last tournament , they are full of nonsense, Danny Murphy reckons GS would be a good manager at Man U , more nonsense
Is it coming home though?
Championship manager at best
Only one England manager has won anything, so all their other managers must have been the same too
Thomas tuchel is looking for a job . Guarantee you he would have England playing quality football by the World Cup .
It's still an absolute TRAVESTY that Harry Redknapp never got his chance. Best English man manager out there, terrible with money and a serial cup/knockout tournament winner... even with Portsmouth. The perfect international manager. I'll be livid until the day I leave this place.
Big facts
Harry would have played far more entertaining football than Gareth does, that's for sure.
But Brian Clough is the best manager England never had, imv.
@@AJP321 yea you're probably right, i just have a special love for harry as im a yiddo plus never really witnessed clough as i was too young :(
