Southgate will be gone after the World Cup. If he does well semi finals or further he will quit knowing he can’t take the nation further. If we have a poor World Cup he will be sacked.
Southgate has done well bringing the team and the fans together however he is now starting to tear it apart by his lack of adventure with the squad. He’s not progressing the style even though we have some of the best attacking players in world football.
Southgate is average to poor as a manager, it's the players who have got him thus far. If you are content with a boring, negative, never win anything FA lapdog he's as good as anything you'll find, so you'll be fine. Southgate's recent public criticism of Rashford and Sancho was shocking in it's naivety. He needs to go.
There is no divine right for England to win something. We have a mix of youth and experience. I have never watched a Nations League game as it's pointless, it's not that important especially when players have played a gruelling season. It's more of a chance (along with friendlies) to give other players a chance and tweak tactics. I don't think GS is changing tactics or tweaking at all. I feel for the fans who pay money to lose miserably. Remember, you can please some of the people some of the time…… I think GS cannot lose if he changes the tactics or tries something different. As far as I'm concerned, I couldn't care less if the friendlies or other games are crap, so long as we deliver during tournaments. I would lovely to win it but there are are better teams out there. As for picking players, whether we have 10 fantastic RB or RWB, I don't care, so long as the one picked is based on reliablity and form. Should we be playing 3 at the back when the Prem League Teams barely play them? Should we play certain players when they've had a poor season? Not really fair on those fighting for a spot for their country.
I think I agree that he has enough credit in the bank. But I do worry we are wasting some serious talent, and might be missing our one opportunity for possibly a long time to win the world cup. Its not just about this game.. we have been stale since after the Euros. I am just not seeing the progress I need to see. Both English football and rugby is in a mess for me. Love the content as always! I think your point is right, in that the FA are going to back him regardless of what we all think.. so better to get on board and see what happens.
You English fans are so bloody short-sighted it's ridiculous. Do you still remember when it literally went from Capello to Hodgson to Big Sam? Not only did you have god-awful football, but it seems everybody has forgotten the kind of players they selected to go to the big competitions. And go look at the support and unity of England as a whole – players, staff and fans – at Russia 2018. That sort of unity was then, unimaginably, replicated at Euro 2021. Now you have two bad performances at a competition that a) nobody cares about, and b) comes at the end of a gruelling season, and everybody is up in arms. Good God, I hope you do sack him and it all goes back to shit again you twats.
Steve cooper can do it and has done it with the under 21s side Graham potter has the ability and the style Eddie Howe is proven and would do a better job We are entering a golden age and need the manager that can play an attacking style that fits our world class and depth in attack. Also his player choices of having his favourites in terms of players Harry Maguire being a more recent example when fik tomori is a far better player in my opinion and him and stones in a back 4 would be far better. I’m giving him until the World Cup and if the performances don’t change then I believe he should go I believe that everyone will get behind him for the World Cup because this similar conversation came up before the euros and everyone came behind him for that
Why does the manger have to be English. Only got 2 good English managers with potter and Howe. When I watch England i feel like I’m watching Steve Bruce’s newcastle
Gareth allowed us to dare to dream in tournaments from being nowhere for decades so I agree with your completely James. Any disappointing result our fans go after him and it doesn't help the atmosphere to try and build into winning something if he even can do it.
The thing that annoys me about the Southgate in crowd is that if he had the personality of Balotelli they’d all want him out. Just because he’s a nice guy and has had some success in the past isn’t reason to keep him on when he’s failing this team of players.
Valid point that we got to a semi final and a final, but if you looked at both of those tournaments we had fairly easy runs to those games (not totally easy) but in both of those games we played well initially then once we scored we sat back and defended for the rest of the games inviting inevitable pressure that caused us to lose those games and even if we had a defensively strong team (we don't) that would have still been a terrible tatic that you cannot disagree Gareth is directly responsible for. Personally I agree we cannot sack Gareth now (we need a good replacement first) this close to another major tournament, but at the same time saying he should keep his job on credit is short sighted especially when you would have to be a totally inept manager to get nowhere with depth of decent players England has at the moment
Englishman are so resultadists. His performances have been mediocre all along but they love them just bc of results. Everyone else knows England have a world champion potential squad. And Southgate is dragging them. It wasn't because of him, they reached finals staged DESPITE of him. Now it's too late to switch managers. This world cup is another missed chance, quarters finals just bc the easy run he got (again). But not much more
i agree…. a final in the euros and a semi in the world cup(where nobody expekted something from england, and we might had our weakest team this millenium…) and one england didnt concede goals and looked solid in the euros, and didnt lost a game (expekt the penaltys in the final) for an extreme long streak… also as u mentioned the second most scoring team..as a tournament team i think you need to be defencive and solid…mourinho and benitez has show this alot of times…. it can be a little misstake, or a goal and you are out… the knockout stages is so hard when you up against so many top teams, and thats why its really hard to win CL and world cup and euros…and we usually se a new winner every year and its very hard to predict… its like 5-8 teams that are top teams and can be named as favourites, plus alot of strong outsiders thats hard to beat… if your not sturctured in defence and get a goal against, it can get reallly hard to get back in the game….
and based by england having probably a way weaker team than when we had scholes, beckham, gerrard, lampard, terry, ferdinand, shearer, owen, cole etc.. and lost a final on penaltys and reached one semi final, i find it insane that people complain…he should be a hero….he was a penalty shootout from winning….. thats a 50 50, and if england had won he would be a ledgend…but instad people find a reason to critisise, cus he "used the young people to take penalties that just came on the pitch"…if they scored he would "been a genious"…. he could picked another penalty kicker and they would stilled have missed…. and then he would have been stupid for not using the "best shooters"..and people just forget all rights choices he did..like gettin best out of sterling and kane..puttin in saka, and he did a great job…get grealish in to open up games… (still critisised cuz he didnt start him)…. using kalvin philips instead of bellingham etc… england looked solid and structured…i dont even get what he could done difrent…used an out of shape arnhold at RB? and unexperienced young bellingham at CM? using a RB at left back, cuz shaw isnt good enough? its so easy to critisize after loosing on penalties(you should pickked him, instead of him)…. he probably knew better than anyone who felt most nervous after actually talkin to the players during the match and tournament…. he subbed them in to give them a "feeling" of playing before they shot at least….they could might used shaw that had a "good feeling after scoring" or whatever, but if shaw are bad at penalites and told him, he got a bad feeling, that probably not be a good choice..anyone can miss a penalty anytime…so its so easy to be smart afterwards…and i bet he would be a "genious" for putting on the players that scored" if they did….good video…i like your content…
Couldn't beat an ageing Italian defence, Southgate picks a defence first team and formation, that's how Greece won the euros, dull and now not winning tournaments.
It hasn’t worked if we haven’t won. You can’t waste this squad, I’d prefer a new manager to get the experience and go out early than this be Southgate’s poor swan song. We haven’t won a tournament for 70 years.

England play like how Southgate took that penalty in 96 with complete fear and anxiety
Southgate will be gone after the World Cup. If he does well semi finals or further he will quit knowing he can’t take the nation further. If we have a poor World Cup he will be sacked.

Well hey at least you guys don’t have Gregg Berhalter
This video is absolute dogshit 💩
Southgate is one of the worst managers we have ever had, Southgate OUT!
Southgate is average to poor as a manager, it's the players who have got him thus far.
If you are content with a boring, negative, never win anything FA lapdog he's as good as anything you'll find, so you'll be fine.
Southgate's recent public criticism of Rashford and Sancho was shocking in it's naivety. He needs to go.
'it takes time'
It will also take Southgate time to change his turgid style
I trust Arsene Wenger to change the style more than Gareth Southgate who has never won anything.

Graham potter has the ability and the style
Eddie Howe is proven and would do a better job
We are entering a golden age and need the manager that can play an attacking style that fits our world class and depth in attack. Also his player choices of having his favourites in terms of players Harry Maguire being a more recent example when fik tomori is a far better player in my opinion and him and stones in a back 4 would be far better.

It’s insane someone that’s supposedly knows about football has such poor football knowledge.
Calling it a snobbery around him is such an insult to the fans. You can see his abilities every time England play, are you mental?
You just made the case for England mediocrity.
It's just so weird he's playing defense football with quality attacking players.
Gareth allowed us to dare to dream in tournaments from being nowhere for decades so I agree with your completely James. Any disappointing result our fans go after him and it doesn't help the atmosphere to try and build into winning something if he even can do it.
Your up southgqtws arse mate he cost us the world cup
Maybe it’s arrogance and over confidence.

Southgate is a horrible tactician. Got very lucky in 2018 and has been riding his luck ever since.
1 dimensional , no imagination
Reasonable and fair? Southgate? He disgraced England with his 2WW Rethorics vs Germany.
Englishman are so resultadists. His performances have been mediocre all along but they love them just bc of results. Everyone else knows England have a world champion potential squad. And Southgate is dragging them. It wasn't because of him, they reached finals staged DESPITE of him.

Talking heads love the sound of their own voices. We'll send Italy a postcard from Qatar 🙂 Nice weather this time of year I've heard.
It hasn’t worked if we haven’t won. You can’t waste this squad, I’d prefer a new manager to get the experience and go out early than this be Southgate’s poor swan song.
We haven’t won a tournament for 70 years.
