England wasting one of the most talented squads ever assembled on Southgate

Yet he's never won anything

He's benefited from a very talented group of players and nice routes through competitions

There isn't a club that would have players like Kane, Foden, Bellingham etc in their team but hire a manager that has proven they couldn't cut it even they got chance to manage a club before.

There's a reason successful clubs hire proven managers to get the best out of talented players, it's necessary.

England will not win a tournament until they get a manager in the same ballpark as the players, in terms of their respective abilities.
Of course England have very talented players but there are gaps.

Pickford is not World Class. Good Keeper but not in the same class as some previous Keepers

Harry MaGuire gets a lot of stick at club level and a real whipping boy for United supporters.

Luke Shaw wouldn’t get a game for Scotland

How old is Henderson ?

Right back very strong

Stones , Foden, Bellingham, Grealish , Saka and Kane are the standouts.

Does England have real quality in depth upfront? There’s a big drop down from Kane to whoever is next in line.

England have done far worse in competitions with far more talented groups

That all said I agree that England should have won Euros.
 
Exactly. How can he be described as successful? We’ve only ever had one successful England manager
 
5 million pounds a year for a part time job, Southgate cant believe his luck
