June 30, 20241 yr I'm a Southgate fan - he's took us to some excellent heights as manager and I think some of the criticism of him is completely unfair - however realistically can't see how he keeps the job if we lose this match. Losing it is one thing, losing in this manner is another.

Losing it is one thing, losing in this manner is another. He should have gone after the World Cup. There's no way he's here for the next cycle regardless of what happens. Dreadful tactical manager, hopefully he ends up at Man Utd.
June 30, 20241 yr He should have gone after the World Cup. There's no way he's here for the next cycle regardless of what happens. Dreadful tactical manager, hopefully he ends up at Man Utd. We got knocked out the World Cup by a team expected to beat us and who went to the final - that's a completely different scenario to this. Watching this match is giving me flashbacks to Hodgson's match against Iceland that rightly put the nails on his coffin as manager. He deserves to go for not making any changes, let alone losing the match.
June 30, 20241 yr How can that even be an option? No defenders in the way from half way up the pitch. Edited June 30, 20241 yr by DoBelieveTheHype
June 30, 20241 yr Author We got knocked out the World Cup by a team expected to beat us and who went to the final - that's a completely different scenario to this. Watching this match is giving me flashbacks to Hodgson's match against Iceland that rightly put the nails on his coffin as manager. He deserves to go for not making any changes, let alone losing the match. He's been the manager for nearly 10 years, he's clearly a really good man manager, but his tactics are dreadful. When has he ever beaten a top team? In every big game we've got beaten outside of the Denmark semi, which we got an incredibly fortunate penalty to help us.All good things come to an end, unfortunately Southgate has stunk the place out for too long now.
