Not sure hatred is applicable as far as Southgate is concerned, but absolute indifference to him and his management approach is far more appropriate imho.

Yes, Ive got nothing personal against the guy, seems like a good person. I just hated his boring as fuck football and clueless hoof it tactics.

Do you think if he went more gung ho we would have done better than semi finals and finals ?
I don’t.
International football is a different kettle of fish - his tactics was spot on and we only lost a trophy on penalty kicks. He worked wonders and put his whole trust in the youth.

But tell me, What did he win? Nothing.
He bottled it. Croatia semi set the tone. The Italy game was a disgraceful bottle job and showed how clueless and scared he is as a tactician. They were a poor team and were shit scared of our pace so after we scored we sat deep and let them have the ball and removed any break threat. His tactics weren’t spot on. They lost us a final that was won.
Theres no point playing negative boring shit if you still end up losing.
