FA confirm Southgate will stay on until after Euro 2024 (p 101)

[SebastianBlue]

Doing very well according to the media and ex England team mates.

Think you’ve misread my original (pre-edited) post.

In what way?

Southgate’s record thus far:

2018 World Cup: Semifinal
2019 Nations League: Third Place
2020 Euros: Runners Up
2021 Nations League: Relegated to League B
2022 World Cup: Quarterfinal

Damning

By editing it. ;-)

3 tournaments is enough. He's had the chances. Him staying will result in more mediocrity.

Yeah, if his record is the best he can do, then it's time to fuck off! I've thought for quite a while that the England players are better than his record.

Maybe the days of a manager who isn't a serial loser getting the England job have long gone. There hasn't been a queue of successful english managers for a while.

As waistcoats cv is relegation, bottom of group for under 21's and the inability to beat any team with half decent players it makes the pool of talent much wider.

Howe and Potter wouldn't take it so we may as well list all the English managers either employed or recently so from the top 2 divsions.

Put the list on the wall and throw a dart at it.

Couldn't care if he stays or not but his record is up there with the best England managers since Revie.

You can fuck right off

As we haven't won owt in near on 60 years that's not really something to brag about.

Could you imagine if the dart fell on the name of Colin Wanker ? :-)

It’s used time and time again on here as a defence of him. Strangely enough nobody saying it seems to ever notice that the great record he has could actually be better if he wasn’t such a cautious manager. I mean, there could actually be something proper to cheer other than celebrating going deep into a competition which invariably ends once they meet a decent side.

It would be if they did awards for longevity rather than focussing on achievement !

Wenger
Löw
Mancini
Poch
any others?

Rodgers?

Headline from a piece in the 'i' newspaper today.
'Southgate emerged as a daring, mighty coach in Qatar'
This is precisely why we're fucked as serious contenders for any future competition of any worth.

 

[Gareth Barry Conlon]

Lots if delusion around who could replace Southgate. The FA can't go for anyone in a managers job. Would have to be someone out of work and preferably English / British. Even then most decent managers would prefer a club job.

 

[City_Sean]

Your expectations are too low mate.

I dislike Southgate as much as everyone, but like I say I find it hard to criticise last night. I thought we were very good and deserved to win. He should still go, but like I say I thought last night was a very good performance

The level of delusion in that comment would seem normal for rag and dipper fans........................................but for the rest of the world !!!
