    He did get Middlesbrough to a European final once (the equivalent of the Europa Leageue i think, def not the big one) but predictably they lost...

    The sooner England get a proper coach in the better. This squad has a lot of talent that should not be wasted. Whatever happens this summer it has to be Southgate’s last tournament.

    Well if he wins it, there’s no way he’d be moved on

    Of course he won’t so it’s academic

    Our route of progression most likely means we play Italy or Spain in the 1/4 final. Now I think we are better than both teams but I’m not convinced we will knock them out in a crunch game

    I'm not so sure he'd stay if England won something, if I'm him I'm quitting while I'm ahead and using that to get a job at a big club on big money

    Dunno, Aragones the racist guy who called Henry a Black shit I think had already decided he was going prior to Euro 2008 for Spain, same with Lippi for Italy in 2006. Aimet Jacquet walked away from football completely after winning the World Cup with France in 98.

    Southgate would also think he could win the World Cup


    I suppose on the flip side we aren’t the only team with an underperforming coach. Didier Deschamps for example. France’s squad from 2018 to now has probably been the best in world football. 2016 he bottled the Euro final, five years later French team with absurd talent goes out on penalties to Switzerland. And let’s be fair they needed the Argentine defence to descend into arse spraying mayhem to even take them to a shootout. And this despite for Messi’s last hurrah, that Argentina side being inferior to the French in almost every area.

    Damn it

    Georgia beat Greece 4-2 on pels

    Wanted Greece to go through, they would have played Turkey in their first match. Absolute carnage
