Correct. He failed in that final.
I do fear he’s too ‘safe’.
However, you can’t argue with a semi and a final, no matter who we had to beat. |
It all depends doesn’t it. If he doesn’t win anything when all said and done the Italy game will likely haunt him and the nation more than 96. On the day, he got it so so wrong. |  | | |

Taken England to a World Cup semi-final and a Euro Final. Yes he's useless... Good grief. Name me one England player that wanted to be out there last night, and I honestly don't blame them either, they need a break for goodness sake. |  | | |

Totally agree with you, he had a shocker. |  | | |

Opinions my view in the world cup when we lost to Croatia
We played absolutely nobody and lost to the first side who were semi decent as for Germany in the euros at home Germany were poor hardly the side of the past as people said Italy never qualified for this world cup gave us a 1 -0 lead but we still lost it by the way he was great at club level Not |

Bringing on a player to try and get a grip on the midfield something that we really did not manage to do all the game was the right move . Phillips is very good at the high press that is what Gareth was aiming for along with the simple fact that we looked likely to concede a second goal on the break . Yes a below par performance but it happens . |  | | |

Yes that game was rubbish but Southgate-bashing is always over the top after the odd defeat in a game that largely doesn't matter. He's the second most successful England manager of all time and even though he got the Euros final tactics wrong, he made some brave calls against Croatia and Germany and got them spot on.
Besides, barely any international teams have an "elite manager", all the best ones are in the club game. Apart from Luis Enrique (Spain) and Hansi Flick (Germany) I can't think of any. And Roberto Mancini failed to even get Italy to the tournament.
Who would we get that's better than Southgate at this time? |
Spain and their "elite manager", treble-winning former Barcelona coach Luis Enrique, needed a 90th minute goal to secure a heroic 2-2 draw against the Czech Republic yesterday. |  |

Spain are not claiming to have their best side ever like certain people are reference England.
Although I dispute this squad maybe have more depth but are the centre half's in the class of Ferdinand, Campbell, Terry etc etc
Also I think the Czechs are a bit better than Hungary and have been for a long while. Think people are getting ahead of themselves in thinking we will win the world cup like most people would be great but I'm not expecting | | | |
