Yeh, I agree. The problem is he's not good enough to make us better than where we are now. It's definitely the right time, need the correct appointment now
I agree with you that klopp will not take the england job m8 he said he wanted a year out and I think he will stick to that personally🤔 however his name is always going to be mentioned whenever any job in football becomes avaliable however I very much doubt the english fa would even make a play for jurgen klopp and I doubt even more that he would take it however what I would also say is I applaud the usa for trying to get klopp if the fa did that then at least they have tried to get the best in the buisness and it never happened they will probably go for an english manager and according to the bookies the top three candidates are graham potter lee carsley and eddie howe that is not uninspiring then I do not know what is🤣
He smelled Arsenal would bottle the league last year and he was spot on. Arsenal were more than 10 points ahead and he said they'd lose the title by about ten points. Which was basically what happened. Not everyone is 100% right. They're predictions. He predicted Salah would leave. He wasn't convinced or certain about it. Nothing in football is certain. I want Klopp to manage England. International football has much less games and it would be perfect for him. He wouldn't be wasting a lot of energy
@@TheFinishedArticle I'm not a delusional fan. It's just something I would want to see. I never said Klopp would take it. I said international job is perfect for him. But we don't know if the Germany job will be available yet. It could be available and Klopp rejects it as its coming too soon for him. I don't expect him to manage England. It might be Howe or someone else. I wouldn't mind if Carrick got the job or Lampard.
I’ve absolutely loved Gareth’s time as manager. 30 years of watching football and I hadn’t seen a final, now I’ve seen two thanks to him. He’s helped build background infrastructure, given young players chances and made most of us appreciate our players and their talents as well as personalities and finally become respected by other countries. The numbers and stats don’t lie, and we’re closer to winning a trophy than ever, thanks to Gareth. He has my utmost respect and gratitude, thank you Gareth ✊🏻🏴✊🏻
I agree, look at all the joy he and the teams have brought to people all over the country. My club have won nothing in years and years but have occasionally managed second, yet I still support them because that’s what it’s all about. England haven’t won anything since 66, but I don’t care, I will continue to support them and be excited when we go far in competition. I certainly ain’t going to sulk about it. Southgate has been fantastic for England.
@@liamthebarber We in the rest of the world don't respect you. I'm kidding! I have no horse in this fight, all I can say is that Southgate seemed to be a thoroughly decent man.
100% agree he's definitely built England onto a solid foundation that if the right people come in we will progress to the next level, but at the highest level the margins are so fine, if people think back if Lingard scored that sitter in the 1st half Vs Croatia, Rashford scored his penalty and not hit the post, Kane scored that penalty Vs France, and Rice or Guehi would have scored that header in the last minute, we would all be having different conversations.
Last season G+A: Kane - 50+ Palmer/Foden/Watkins - 40+ Bellingham/Saka/Bowen - 30+ Eze/Gorden - 20+ England couldn't find goals and they apparently over achieved
Seems like SG forgot there is a left and a right side of the field and he didnt have any players on the left side. I think this is the first time in the history that a national plays 6 games without a single attacking play on one side of the field.
Shoulda went with fire v fire. Just played the most attacking team. Everyone woulda loved that. Kane was a bit lost in that team. Drop him and let Watkins and toney run wild. Palmer and gordon may of worked better.
I really don't understand why some people keep saying he did a good job. 8 years and England never played good football. Didn't win anything. Lost consistently against teams with worse players. Has probably the best roster in the world. Oh my god English people have lost so badly so often that they're happy with mediocrity, it's embarrassing to listen to these people talk and frankly quite sad. I almost feel bad for the English, almost...
Respect to Southgate. He got us out a slump and restored pride and enthusiasm in supporting our national team again. Not the greatest manager in the world but he got us to believe again. He prepared a perfect springboard for the next manager with more experience and skill to get us a trophy. Very honourable to step down now. Hats off to Gareth for that.
No respect coming from me bud!! What other International football team kicks off a game, by passing the ball back to the Goalkeeper?? Why did Southgate keep picking Kane, knowing he wasn’t fit?? The list is endless!! I rejoice in Southgate’s resignation!! He’s finished! Fini! Fertig! Finito! Terminado!!!
But Southgate's tenure has been a wasted opportunity. If a manager sacked by Middlesbrough could get so close then what could a world class coach have done? It might be too late now, the other teams could be improving too much.
@@DerekLangdon nothing wrong with passing back to the goalkeeper, what would you rather prefer to play entertaining and lose or play what you consider boring and win? It’s a results game and tournament football is like that I think England fans just expect too much to be honest. No wonder why certain people abroad us because we a lot of us are the most entitled bunch of idiots ever.
@@doommonger7784 to be fair I don’t think you really know a lot about football. You have to defensive at times to win. It’s not mangers fault that we haven’t won anything. The problem is we go through managers like sweets and we’ve had so many in our time and ones that will probably more technically as good as Southgate and still didn’t get even as near as him with even better squad the golden generation for example
The fact that before the Spain goal he was peparing to bring Trippier and Gallagher on (while Palmer was rotting on the bench) sums him up perfectly. Drop back, go defensive, don't attack, just try and ride it out and gamble on penalties. Pathetic, negatvie style of play
I will tell you what is a fact, Gareth Southgate was England's best manager since Alf Ramsey. Vomit your could haves, should haves, would haves all you want, he took England to 2 finals and one semis, the next guy, whoever it is, will not be archiving anything close to this.
Gareth is a good person and has brought England football further than any other manager has. Great respect. Very much brave, and very much a changemaker.
@hellohowsitgoing I think you'll find it's not me who's crying. It's long overdue Southgate went. He's mediocrity writ large, and he's (yet again) wasted the talent at his disposal.
Back in the day Italia 90 euro 96 the feeling then was just get to a final let us experience it and yeah maybe win one. This fellas got us to a semi in the World Cup and two euro finals back to back. He deserves our thanks not criticism. In this last tournament remember the good moments Bellingham’s overhead kick Watkins last minute winner the penalty shoot out the calmness of the takers when in shootouts previously we kinda new we were out so just be grateful for the last eight years and wish him well and say thanks for some wonderful memories.
Thanks Gareth .... probably a better No2 than a No1 manager.... He has done an ok job with a super set of players... he has left a good foundation for an incoming better tactical manager.
@@Do27gg don't it twisted. The current crop of players are incredible now. He's a defensive coach with attacking players. So its the right time, but he's done well behind the scenes. From where they were.
@@2HatHudders pick the wrong manager now and the dressing room can go back to the bad days when Neville was there...a superb man manager who now has a good set of players to hand on to the next manager but its no guarantee that we will go forward from here....1990 and 1996 we had a great team but then the 2000s happened.
@@2HatHudders he’s done the bare minimum, he’s just tried to keep everyone happy by playing his favourites but deep down the players don’t respect him, they just like him because he lets them play without consequences (Kane, foden, Walker etc)
and fans, it's sad to see a great manager go - my opinion we've gotten a lot stronger under Southgate. Yes, no silverware but his record is better than previous managers. He will be missed but hey good luck and hope he becomes a great prem manager.
Facts. Gary is a big fat liar, everyone knows. Gary and his United crew, still continue their hatred, bias and subjectivity against rival clubs - look how they talk about rival clubs/players.
It just proves that most managers who are successful go against the conventional and politically correct approach to football. Theres a lesson here guys - Don't be a yes man
i agree, gary speaks with authority & conviction and that's probably why he's loved & hated by many. either way he attracts the viewers, he must be doing something right
Saying English coaches have got a long way to go to become great coaches and then saying we shouldn't have an international coach is absurd while also saying you want England to win the world Cup... get over it and bring in a good manager!
The national bias in the selection of managers is one of the the primary reason for the trophy drought. Bringing in a competent and proven foreign manager might help significantly.
Spot on. A more attacking-minded manager is a must, no matter the nationality. The FA needs to be more open-minded and also go after someone who has more trophies in the resume.
'Taking the handbrake off' is not 0.1% of our problems, it's one of (if not the main) reason we haven't come away with a trophy over the last 8 years and that can't be levelled at the players, it's a tactical decision. Gareth Southgate has changed the structure of or international team for the better, that can't be denied, but he's had the propensity to not take the handbrake off for the vast majority of his tenure. Let's get a manager that's brave enough to do it.
You won't get it 'leemchale'. You won't get it. This is England we're talking about and we can NEVER get away from the Don Howe school of football and that is 'Let's not lose this game...'! Whilst that negative and defensive mindset is uppermost, we won't get the attacking football we all crave. England (nee, Britain!) is sh*t scared of embarrassment! It's in our culture and it's reflected in our football. Other teams aren't scared to express themselves that's why Spain were so beautiful upon they eye. In short: They went for it and showed absolutely NO FEAR! There's also a part of us that has to manage our expectations and for me, for the type of football England play, I think we did alright! Roll on 2026. 👏🏾❤
When you’ve played for a club like Man U and literally won everything on offer, more than once in many cases, you have the right to bring yourself into conversations.
@@TheSixYardBox apologies I should’ve been more specific. It could’ve been more of a high but now that the dust is settled this little bit and have time to reflect on his performance over the years he’s definitely improved things so hopefully the next manager will come on with a more and attacking line set, and get the players playing some decent football
@@Suggs2011but you can say that about every England manager since 66, England have never been a team that wins tournaments I don’t care the quality of players you all keep talking about England in history have never been that team & he’s started making you look like one
Southgate's contribution has been fab. Brought new players into team and also two euro finals, not to mention how penalties taken now. Congratulations to whole team. Great achievement be proud. Thank you Southgate.
@@DerekLangdon the only thing Gareth did wrong was sticking with some players that should not of been played I think the more fit squad people playing in good positions who would’ve won two finals you may have lost we got to finals
Our team became a serious competitor again during his tenure, it doesn't seem to have reached it's full potential yet, but I'm grateful to Southgate for what he's done
A serious contender? They sucked big time. They got to the final having had like 45 minutes of good play in the whole tournament due to the individual brilliance of some of the players. Spain was ripped off in 1996 against England and Southgate was a defender there. Karma came and smashed his face this tine around or actually, Spain did. It is a pity he goes...we liked how sh-tty he was LOL
@@artschool673 Southgate's record shows it, two Euros finals, a WC semi-final and quarter final, and handily beating teams like Germany and the Netherlands where before we were being knocked out of tournaments by lower-ranked teams like Iceland. We're one of the best teams in Europe again
@@hsjshdhsjshsh958 This time, it was lots and lots of luck. I doubt they could've beaten France and Germany, possibly even Georgia could've caused them big problems. Spain had the much harder way to the title. The Netherlands played a very bad tournament, Austria was pretty unlucky and Switzerland and Slovenia were very close to ending all dreams of "IT" coming home, before England got their first shots on goal in the 80th and 94th minute. It's a certain quality to win close games, but with these players, it should have never even been this close.
@@hsjshdhsjshsh958 You said "our team". There was no team, you got there by the sheer brilliance of some of the players. Southgate's input was parking the bus, while having three of the best strikers and organisers of game in Europe. Wtf! If I give you good potatoes, good eggs, good Spanish olive oil and good onions, you can try to make a Spanish omelette and even if you don't know how to do it, you'll get something tasty, but you won't get a nice, round Spanish omelette. Same thing here: he got excellent ingredients, but he did not deliver, the ingredients were good, that's all. Seriously, stop defending him. Thanks Southgate for what you did and bye. Btw, I am not even English and for the sake of my national team, I'd like him to stay LOL, England would continue to not being a threat if he stayed.
@@artschool673 You and the other fella are forgetting that this team isn't actually any better than previous English teams, and yet has consistently achieved much more. The players have come from different clubs with different styles of play, yet Southgate has formed a capable and coherent team that has achieved much more. Looking at the results he's yielded it's absurd to say wasn't good. He was good, great even, in a different league from other England managers.
Lets this man a round of applause he is a good man he work hard to get England to the finals please lets remember the good things he has done so please him with respect i miss you Southgate
At the beginning of the post, Gary compares De la Fuente to Southgate. The difference is the Spain manager has his whole squad understanding and working to a structure. Southgate seems to choose a core group of “big” players that always seem to get a spot whether or not they can play together in a structure. He is unable or unwilling to sit “big” players that aren’t performing or playing to his structure.
Hope they get an attacking minded manager Southgate did the best he could but can only see the game as a defender not as an attacker. We want to be entertained when we watch football the players are good enough
It’s a great time to be a pundit, you can say so much when England are not doing well. So much easier to write an article of a 2000 words when we lose but try it when we win .
@@uberhoofenhoussen4186 England played the entire Euro without a left wing, not a single attacking play coming from the left side in the entire tournament is completely unbelievable. They didnt even have a natural left back in Trippier. So for the first five games all goals conceded came from that side.
@@IL7319 GS deliberately picked 24 right footed players out of 26.....which prevented England from scoring/winning, the opposition had nothing to defend on half the pitch
How many times does he want to mention they got to a final? They barely scraped by minnows the entire way and got a gift from the ref vs a poor Dutch side (3rd in their group). Southgate is an imposter who has had some insane luck in tournament draws. Back to back finals by playing absolutely nobody and the luxury of playing an entire tournament at Wembley. Gary Neville keeps mentioning Iceland in 2016 as a turning point at how far he’s taken England, but he was only 30 seconds away from a similar disaster vs Slovakia when a world class player baled him out with an overhead kick.
@@bozuk2011If you convert each countries FIFA Rankings into league places, England were the equivalent of Tottenham, and they drew 0-0 with Exeter, 1-1 with Leicester, needed extra time against Portsmouth and penalties against Burnley. That’s woeful.
They got to two finals, had a good chance in both and a narrowly lost a world cup semi. Yes this hasn't been a vintage tournament in terms of performances, but to call some of these team minnows is disrespectful to put it kindly. Switzerland knocked out the defending champions Italy, Slovakia beat Belgium. There are no easy games at the Euros, as has been proven by countless teams, just ask Portugal. Gareth does have flaws as a manager don't get me wrong but what he has achieved deserves some respect at least.
We needed a brave manager... That was the difference between us and Spain. We had the talent in the squad to win that game... We just didn't utilise it properly.
I disagree. Fans wanting more from their team as expected isn't us vs them. All they got was boos for a poor performance once , not like outright abuse and lambasting
Gareth has done the right thing - the FA were apparently keen for him to remain. But now that he has resigned can we now accept the resignation of the entire English FA, to the last man.
Gary has a point. Director of Coaching at the FA seems the perfect role for Gareth but would he want it. He's done well and well paid club management gigs to cash in are probably far more attractive.
@@martynheritage-owen3804 I can see him going to Palace. It's a good job for him with low expectations. He was in danger of outstaying his welcome at England and it could have turned nasty.
To be fair Southgate’s did well for a manager with limited knowledge of how to play attacking football. Only time will tell if anyone else can do any better. I certainly wouldn’t want the job . Would you ?
Gareth "I had four dream draws" Southgate. Put Gareth's team up against some of the Brazilian teams we lost against in the past and he's out in the first knockout game.
@@abuyusufabdulhakim952 This team wasn't average, Bellingham plays for Real and saved them at the start of the season in his first year at the club, Foden voted Premier League player of the season, Kane top scorer in the Bundesliga, Palmer played amazingly well in a terrible Chelsea team, Walker one of the best right backs in the world, I could go on. Southgate didn't get the best out of what he had but that's not easy with England
Success means playing to your strengths. Positive, powerful dominance to win not lose . Thomas Frank is Positive, father figure and these young players will love him to express themselves, the only way 🎉
On paper done a fantastic job Look at the details with the resources he has and it was absolutely abysmal However it’s a results business and he did on paper get to 2 finals but I’m not being funny, he really did have the best players in the tournament
Abysmal? Not really. Apart from the early tournament games he's tactically been ok. The final was a case of players choosing to lace it back at Spain rather than hold the ball and back themselves. The final was lost due to the players. We were outplayed which should not happen when you look at the players on the pitch. Players should've showed up.
When people say this I always use Belgium as an example. Best team in the world for multiple tournaments and got nothing. Players/resources mean don't guarantee anything
@@jonathanh9592 draw against Slovania and Slovakia in 90 minutes was not tactically ok bud, specially when you had Bundesliga Top Scorer, Foden, Stones, Walker that won Treble 1 year ago, best U21 kid in the world, even the bench players were better than those 2 nations squad.
It could be Lee Carsley to replace Gareth. By all accounts he was offered the Ireland and turned it down. It was felt in Ireland that he was holding out for the Senior team.
Yep FA fed up of management merry-go-round, so they'll just appoint each new England manager as under 21s 1st. Works for me as long as there is a better coral of coaches and managers to advise
Need i remind you that carsley took the England under 21s to the European championship title against, i believe, the manager who just took Spain to the title and won and he did it on the tough side of the draw despatching Portugal in the semis as well as Spain in the final. They also beat the Germans in the group stage too. If I recall the games I remember being impressed that he seemed to make the right decisions at the right times with subs and tactics and had that England team with the likes of Palmer and Gordon playing front foot attacking football with a rock solid defense. Don't forget also this triuphant Spanish manager has no managerial accolades he's come from the youth set up and knew most of these players from that system same as carsley does with the players who are going to take England forward.
No you judge him on what players he's had to pick from and what opposition he's played against. He's been drab and frustrating n should of gone 2 years ago.
remind me again of who you are and what you have done in life? southgate is the second most succesful manager in england national teams history. only manager to reach a final on foreign soil and 2 successive euro finals
@@MC24DB haha check out all the clueless upper middle class lefties on here. Lol he def could not manage prem teams as he is a really poor manager. The worst there. He also ( as shown before ) is not good enough for championship. Personally Sunday League is more his level. Best you lot go back to tennis or lacrosse as you know nothing about football.
England had pound for pound one of the best if not the best squad in the tournament. The fact that they stumbled into the final isn’t a reflection of the team but of the coach. We’ve seen 45+10 min of a hungry english team that wants to go places. Unfortunately they continued to sit back and let the game get to them. The first real test in this tournament proved to be their downfall and they can be lucky to having made it this far. Moving forward they need a coach that not only can keep the press at bay but galvanise this team and add minute after minute of the team they can be.
It's obvious from watching Euros coverage we need a managerial team consisting of Lineker, Shearer, Richards, Ferdinand, Neville and Wright. Always knew exactly what the team selection should be, what formation to use, what tactics to employ, when to make substitutions, who to put on and who to take off.
Spot on mate or Paul Merson, who said it was our competition to lose!! Love to take gambling advice off Merse bless him! If this was a successful campaign im never watching England again its painful!!
@@DavidColes-x9s Kane, Fodden, and Walker should have never started at the Final. Had he started Palmer, the score would have been different. Shaw played a great final. Watkins and Trent should have started the Final. I still think they should get a Spanish coach. Xavi is available.
@@IL7319 I would have used a 3-5-2 system. Foden and Trent Alexander Arnold on the wings, Declan Rice behind Mainoo and Bellingham. Palmer can play as a second striker behind Kane. The goalkeeper ( Ramsdale should leave Arsenal by the way) and the defense are for me the real problem, only Southgate knows the solution.
Gareth Southgate has been incredible for the national team, no doubt about it he should be supremely proud as should the fans be of him, it’s because of him we are the side we have been over the last 8 years unfortunately it’s also because of Southgate we haven’t got over the line & wrapped up at least one trophy with the chances we’ve had with his faults in game adaptation & defensive tendencies, but he’s still given us the best experiences as English fans most of us have ever had aside from those old enough to remember 58 years ago, Ladies footy aside obviously but speaking personally it’s not the same although im proud of the lionesses as well, Bring on World Cup 2026 with an expansive positive coach.
We struggled all the way through to the final. Playing average teams on the way. Spain were there for the taking but yet again, he stuck with his favourites.
The England U21 coaching staff should be given a chance. Bring in young talent and play football that's great to watch. I enjoyed watching the U17s and U20s when they won their respective World Cup and Euros. I don't think a 'club' manager has the tournament experience to be a success.
I would like to see Southgate as part of the Coaching Staff of the next Manager, no matter how boring the football has been at times he deserves to finally win something for his country. Plus it would help keep that togetherness that he's brought
Honestly completely agree with this. Say what you want about his tactics, he has brought a culture of togetherness to the team that has been missing the entire time. Bring in pep if you want, but if the players don't like him and he doesn't bring that same energy, the ship sinks just like the golden generation.
Togetherness players refusing to play him and his coaching staff only picking his favourites giving no minutes to proper wingers who could impacted the game but yet stuck with foden who won’t ever do anything for England refusing to drop Harry Kane other players don’t like and clearly see this time they wasn’t together and had enough of him let’s not sugar coat poor performances and mediocrity
@@willtallis5275 There was no composure on the ball in the final. After the equaliser they wilted. These are seasoned professionals. The players were just as much to blame. Completely bottled it.
Yea let's make Southgate assistant coach, brilliant idea. I loved how Roy Hodgson was sitting on his hands when playing out of form players and being slow at making changes. We know now where that influence comes from.
What we forget with England teams in the past is the quality of opposition they went out to in big tournaments, obviously not Iceland! Portugal with Ronaldo at his best, Germany with Mattaeus, Brazil with Ronaldinho, Italy with Pirlo. On the whole I think there were better international teams 10..20..30 years ago.
Why is Potter, who has proven that he can't manage big players at the top level in the EPL mentioned at all, let alone first? Howe, I can understand, but not Potter.
He’s been too rigid in his approach and as good as his record in tournaments is as soon as they play someone with quality that’s them out English players need to learn how to make the opposition chase the ball Spain schooled them the other night with the ball
My pick for England is Lee Carsley as Caretaker Manager to cover the Nations League matches later this year. See how he goes whilst also looking at other candidates. I'm sure Lee would happily step in even though it might turn out to be temporary, as the experience would be invaluable, he would get a preview of what it's like to step up to that level, and if he wins us the Nations League (which we got relegated in under Southgate) and gets us promoted back to League A again, then he would certainly make a name for himself and make himself a top candidate for the longer term position. Promoting the U21 manager to the first team worked for Spain, maybe it will work for us. Lee also knows many if not all of the younger players and likely managed several too.
Well said Gary Neville! And thats coming from a Liverpool fan! But I do like Gary Neville, depite the fact that he played for The Scum!...lol..😂 He always comes across well, speaks admirably and respectfully and gives a very good acct of himself and I respect him for that. But seriously now....all this hate that is being thrown at Gareth Southgate from disenchanted England fans, that are too young (in the main) to know how, in the past, we've had just as many great individuals, that when you collectively, put them in an England shirt, couldn't string 3 passes together! We haven't seen anything like what Gareth has achieved in the last 8 yrs, not since we won the WC in '66...its been solid disappointment after disappointment ever since! For those that know, GS, has been nothing short of a revelation for England. I wanted nothing more for him than to see him lift that trophy, something that he so richly deserves. My guess, is that in time, when we realise how far England have fallen from the days that he was in charge, we will be crying out to have him back! We'll be pleading for him to rejoin as manager once again...and then, maybe, people will finally acknowledge just how good we've had it lately! And then, just maybe, we'll get a 2nd bite at this very, very special and under-appreciated cherry! God bless you Gareth, I wish you well and I'll miss you!....its all down hill for us from now on...but thank you so much for everything you did and for all the hope you gave us..I wish you well...💞
@Stevaldoxporiginal Kid was born in the wrong country. His brashness, ego and confidence is loved in Spain. I'm not surprised Spain won and England lost. He's loved in a country that constantly produces champions.
These last 7 games have tarnished his reputation. The decision to stop attacking football can only be laid at his door and not the players. He torpedoed England's chances far more than their opponents giving his team such an unintended handicap that they had no realistic chance to win beyond mere hope. England showed such promise when they attacked with vigour and the ''might have beens'' are almost endless. Such a waste, purely down to timid tactics and nothing else.
As a Welshman, I hope you appoint Roy Hodgson, I liked him 😄 But in all seriousness, who the hell would want to manage England these days!! So much pressure to win a trophy, and the pressure gets bigger and bigger each tournament!! Southgate should've won something, you were very lucky to get to the final this year. Last World Cup you were actually much better, better to watch, more attacking football, more ruthless. You were unlucky v France, you were actually better than them on the day. You could've won the cup 2 years ago. You would've beaten Morocco for sure, maybe Argentina on your day.
Sir Alf Ramsey is our most successful manager, and the 66 group of players were the golden generation who were proud to represent their country.....Facts

Great comments from Gary Neville. I've really enjoyed listening to him and Jamie Carragher. These 2 guys have spoken a hell of a lot of sense in the aftermath of the final. They've just called it so honestly. They are right I believe. The failings to pinpoint as to why we didn't get over the line are spot on. I don't believe Southgate could have done anything to bridge the gap in quality with the Spanish players. Our guys do not have the quality in possession. Simple as that. Same failing for decades. A manager can't change that. It's a whole footballing infastructure. There's a reason the same countries have, 4, 5, 6, 7 trophies, because they have that coaching infastructure. You can't develop it in a few years, it done over decades. Only Spain and France in the last 2 decades have entered the Brazil/Argentina/Germany/Italy circle. Those 6 countries dominate international football. England having a strong league can enter but it takes the will and ability to recognise our flaws instead of blaming the manager all the time.
Gary Neville is the footballs version of the boxer promotor Eddie Hearn. Loves a camera in his face. Loves the sound of his own voice. Never says anything worth listening too
Best player of La Liga, top scorer of Bundesliga, the best players in the two English teams that reached the UCL quarter finals, etc. what else can you ask for? Spain had players from Bilbao and R Sociedad and clubs in Arabia in the line up...
To give the guy credit, he left the team a hell of a lot better than he found it.

He smelled Arsenal would bottle the league last year and he was spot on. Arsenal were more than 10 points ahead and he said they'd lose the title by about ten points. Which was basically what happened. Not everyone is 100% right. They're predictions. He predicted Salah would leave. He wasn't convinced or certain about it. Nothing in football is certain. I want Klopp to manage England. International football has much less games and it would be perfect for him. He wouldn't be wasting a lot of energy
He could smell it like the Qatari money.
@@mohammedfaiisalDelusional England fans thinking Klopp would manage England when the Germany job will be available soon 🤦♂️
@@TheFinishedArticle I'm not a delusional fan. It's just something I would want to see. I never said Klopp would take it. I said international job is perfect for him. But we don't know if the Germany job will be available yet. It could be available and Klopp rejects it as its coming too soon for him. I don't expect him to manage England. It might be Howe or someone else. I wouldn't mind if Carrick got the job or Lampard.
I’ve absolutely loved Gareth’s time as manager. 30 years of watching football and I hadn’t seen a final, now I’ve seen two thanks to him. He’s helped build background infrastructure, given young players chances and made most of us appreciate our players and their talents as well as personalities and finally become respected by other countries. The numbers and stats don’t lie, and we’re closer to winning a trophy than ever, thanks to Gareth. He has my utmost respect and gratitude, thank you Gareth ✊🏻🏴✊🏻
I agree, look at all the joy he and the teams have brought to people all over the country.
My club have won nothing in years and years but have occasionally managed second, yet I still support them because that’s what it’s all about.
England haven’t won anything since 66, but I don’t care, I will continue to support them and be excited when we go far in competition. I certainly ain’t going to sulk about it.
Southgate has been fantastic for England.
Thanks Gareth WE COULDNT AV SCAPPED THROUGH without you😂
Fans are too narrow minded to realise was a peak for england. Based on history its 10x more likely to get worse than better.
@@liamthebarber We in the rest of the world don't respect you. I'm kidding! I have no horse in this fight, all I can say is that Southgate seemed to be a thoroughly decent man.
100% agree he's definitely built England onto a solid foundation that if the right people come in we will progress to the next level, but at the highest level the margins are so fine, if people think back if Lingard scored that sitter in the 1st half Vs Croatia, Rashford scored his penalty and not hit the post, Kane scored that penalty Vs France, and Rice or Guehi would have scored that header in the last minute, we would all be having different conversations.
Last season G+A:
Kane - 50+
Palmer/Foden/Watkins - 40+
Bellingham/Saka/Bowen - 30+
Eze/Gorden - 20+
England couldn't find goals and they apparently over achieved
Seems like SG forgot there is a left and a right side of the field and he didnt have any players on the left side. I think this is the first time in the history that a national plays 6 games without a single attacking play on one side of the field.
Brilliantly put
Shoulda went with fire v fire. Just played the most attacking team. Everyone woulda loved that. Kane was a bit lost in that team. Drop him and let Watkins and toney run wild. Palmer and gordon may of worked better.
I really don't understand why some people keep saying he did a good job. 8 years and England never played good football. Didn't win anything. Lost consistently against teams with worse players. Has probably the best roster in the world. Oh my god English people have lost so badly so often that they're happy with mediocrity, it's embarrassing to listen to these people talk and frankly quite sad. I almost feel bad for the English, almost...
The euros is a better standard than plaing Burnley and Sheffield utd every week.
Respect to Southgate. He got us out a slump and restored pride and enthusiasm in supporting our national team again. Not the greatest manager in the world but he got us to believe again. He prepared a perfect springboard for the next manager with more experience and skill to get us a trophy. Very honourable to step down now. Hats off to Gareth for that.
Which won’t happen if they hire an English coach English coaches are crap always has been an English manager won’t win us anything
No respect coming from me bud!! What other International football team kicks off a game, by passing the ball back to the Goalkeeper?? Why did Southgate keep picking Kane, knowing he wasn’t fit?? The list is endless!! I rejoice in Southgate’s resignation!! He’s finished! Fini! Fertig! Finito! Terminado!!!
But Southgate's tenure has been a wasted opportunity. If a manager sacked by Middlesbrough could get so close then what could a world class coach have done? It might be too late now, the other teams could be improving too much.
@@DerekLangdon nothing wrong with passing back to the goalkeeper, what would you rather prefer to play entertaining and lose or play what you consider boring and win? It’s a results game and tournament football is like that I think England fans just expect too much to be honest. No wonder why certain people abroad us because we a lot of us are the most entitled bunch of idiots ever.
@@doommonger7784 to be fair I don’t think you really know a lot about football. You have to defensive at times to win. It’s not mangers fault that we haven’t won anything. The problem is we go through managers like sweets and we’ve had so many in our time and ones that will probably more technically as good as Southgate and still didn’t get even as near as him with even better squad the golden generation for example
When you look at where we were in late June of 2016, the dude really exceeded expectations. Thank you Gareth Southgate and good luck in the future.
Hear hear!
Wish him all the best and hoping he gets his dream job at united so Neville and Keane can kick his boots that much more😂
We are still shittier
What by winning only 7/29 against the top 10 ranked teams. Those other wins me you and the local alcoholic could have strung together
He wouldn’t get a top 10 PL job.
The fact that before the Spain goal he was peparing to bring Trippier and Gallagher on (while Palmer was rotting on the bench) sums him up perfectly. Drop back, go defensive, don't attack, just try and ride it out and gamble on penalties. Pathetic, negatvie style of play
Palmer was on the pitch. He scored the equaliser. Did you miss it?
Re read the above fella🤦
I will tell you what is a fact, Gareth Southgate was England's best manager since Alf Ramsey. Vomit your could haves, should haves, would haves all you want, he took England to 2 finals and one semis, the next guy, whoever it is, will not be archiving anything close to this.

'Taking the handbrake off' is not 0.1% of our problems, it's one of (if not the main) reason we haven't come away with a trophy over the last 8 years and that can't be levelled at the players, it's a tactical decision. Gareth Southgate has changed the structure of or international team for the better, that can't be denied, but he's had the propensity to not take the handbrake off for the vast majority of his tenure. Let's get a manager that's brave enough to do it.
Should have been Maddison and Palmer ahead of Foden all day long. Watkins up top.
@elsantoschalbi4459 you would have taken Madison over Foden to Germany?
You won't get it 'leemchale'. You won't get it. This is England we're talking about and we can NEVER get away from the Don Howe school of football and that is 'Let's not lose this game...'! Whilst that negative and defensive mindset is uppermost, we won't get the attacking football we all crave. England (nee, Britain!) is sh*t scared of embarrassment! It's in our culture and it's reflected in our football. Other teams aren't scared to express themselves that's why Spain were so beautiful upon they eye. In short: They went for it and showed absolutely NO FEAR! There's also a part of us that has to manage our expectations and for me, for the type of football England play, I think we did alright!

At the beginning of the post, Gary compares De la Fuente to Southgate. The difference is the Spain manager has his whole squad understanding and working to a structure.

He is unable or unwilling to sit “big” players that aren’t performing or playing to his structure.

They also beat the Germans in the group stage too. If I recall the games I remember being impressed that he seemed to make the right decisions at the right times with subs and tactics and had that England team with the likes of Palmer and Gordon playing front foot attacking football with a rock solid defense. Don't forget also this triuphant Spanish manager has no managerial accolades he's come from the youth set up and knew most of these players from that system same as carsley does with the players who are going to take England forward.

England had pound for pound one of the best if not the best squad in the tournament. The fact that they stumbled into the final isn’t a reflection of the team but of the coach.

Moving forward they need a coach that not only can keep the press at bay but galvanise this team and add minute after minute of the team they can be.
It's obvious from watching Euros coverage we need a managerial team consisting of Lineker, Shearer, Richards, Ferdinand, Neville and Wright.

@@DavidColes-x9s Kane, Fodden, and Walker should have never started at the Final. Had he started Palmer, the score would have been different. Shaw played a great final. Watkins and Trent should have started the Final. I still think they should get a Spanish coach. Xavi is available.
100%
Not really, Foden is more like a winger, playing with Palmer and Bellingham at the same time in the midfield is more difficult.
Specially if you make them play as left wing
@@IL7319 I would have used a 3-5-2 system.
Foden and Trent Alexander Arnold on the wings, Declan Rice behind Mainoo and Bellingham. Palmer can play as a second striker behind Kane.
The goalkeeper ( Ramsdale should leave Arsenal by the way) and the defense are for me the real problem, only Southgate knows the solution.
Diego Simeone for The England Manager job.
Ange Postecoglou would be a good choice
Gary smelled it the same way he did with Cucucucurella 😂😂
Learn to spell U bloody idiot
Look at Cucurella's hair, it's a pretty big target to smell isn't it?😂😂😂
😂😂 whoosh "n" gone 😂😂
Gary Neville appointed as San Marino Manager due his tactics and experience...
Harry Redknapp. Yes, he'll be 79 at the next World Cup, I don't care.
Thanks Gareth. Truely and honestly, thankyou.
Gareth Southgate has been incredible for the national team, no doubt about it he should be supremely proud as should the fans be of him, it’s because of him we are the side we have been over the last 8 years unfortunately it’s also because of Southgate we haven’t got over the line & wrapped up at least one trophy with the chances we’ve had with his faults in game adaptation & defensive tendencies, but he’s still given us the best experiences as English fans most of us have ever had aside from those old enough to remember 58 years ago,
Ladies footy aside obviously but speaking personally it’s not the same although im proud of the lionesses as well,
Bring on World Cup 2026 with an expansive positive coach.
Southgate should now go into politics ,he'd be right at home
Thank you Southgate for making England football team better ♥️♥️♥️🏴🏴
True in my eyes he is tied for the second best England manager of all time.
'Handled penalties better than anybody' yeah great job against Italy, subbing on players just to take one. Worked out great.
75% win rate in penalties you prawn 🦐
We struggled all the way through to the final. Playing average teams on the way. Spain were there for the taking but yet again, he stuck with his favourites.
There for the taking? They were the stand-out team of the tournament! They won every game they played!
Well said Gary and best wishes to Gareth Southgate in the future you have been absolutely amazing as head coach for England it sad to see you go.
well done Gareth you are the first england manager to literally bore me to fall asleep watching an england game, so glad he is gone
Not been an England fan long then.
@@t34wrj11 Name an england manager that played more boring football
@@TheThejatsman I'll give you two.. Hodgson and Taylor.
@@t34wrj11 Turnip head and even Woy played more attacking football than Gareth
The England U21 coaching staff should be given a chance. Bring in young talent and play football that's great to watch. I enjoyed watching the U17s and U20s when they won their respective World Cup and Euros. I don't think a 'club' manager has the tournament experience to be a success.
@@nev7711 tried that already with Southgate ... didn't win anything.
I would like to see Southgate as part of the Coaching Staff of the next Manager, no matter how boring the football has been at times he deserves to finally win something for his country. Plus it would help keep that togetherness that he's brought
Honestly completely agree with this. Say what you want about his tactics, he has brought a culture of togetherness to the team that has been missing the entire time. Bring in pep if you want, but if the players don't like him and he doesn't bring that same energy, the ship sinks just like the golden generation.
Togetherness players refusing to play him and his coaching staff only picking his favourites giving no minutes to proper wingers who could impacted the game but yet stuck with foden who won’t ever do anything for England refusing to drop Harry Kane other players don’t like and clearly see this time they wasn’t together and had enough of him let’s not sugar coat poor performances and mediocrity
@@willtallis5275 There was no composure on the ball in the final. After the equaliser they wilted. These are seasoned professionals. The players were just as much to blame. Completely bottled it.
That would undermine both him and the new manager.
Yea let's make Southgate assistant coach, brilliant idea. I loved how Roy Hodgson was sitting on his hands when playing out of form players and being slow at making changes. We know now where that influence comes from.
I like Steve Cooper plays some nice football...knows half the team as he managed them to the U17s triumph. Also, worked for the FA before.
What we forget with England teams in the past is the quality of opposition they went out to in big tournaments, obviously not Iceland! Portugal with Ronaldo at his best, Germany with Mattaeus, Brazil with Ronaldinho, Italy with Pirlo. On the whole I think there were better international teams 10..20..30 years ago.
Gary with his incredible insight yet again. Absolute melt.
Hahaha!
Yes a melt but his experience & trophy cabinet isn’t bad.. better than mine that’s certain.
the newcastle manager is the best replacment
Why is Potter, who has proven that he can't manage big players at the top level in the EPL mentioned at all, let alone first?
Howe, I can understand, but not Potter.
Tuchel is the better option
Potter wasn't even that good at Brighton.
@@StevoLloyds I agree. Eddie Howe would be my choice over Potter any day. Don’t think there’s much choice for an English England Manager.
Eddie Howe and Ange are my picks
@@TheSixYardBox Ange is fat and has a bad attitude
He’s been too rigid in his approach and as good as his record in tournaments is as soon as they play someone with quality that’s them out English players need to learn how to make the opposition chase the ball Spain schooled them the other night with the ball
As a manager he has done remarkable. Team played consistently well and played with class. Represented the country well. He should be celebrated.
Ollie Watkins should have been on the team - Harry Kane had no
energy - he looked very tired😂
Gary’s back! No one had seen him since he disappeared up Starmers backside before the final…
Hes been on ITV every night
wtf is this comment
Gareth was a very dignified person throughout his tenure as manager with great football knowledge.
My pick for England is Lee Carsley as Caretaker Manager to cover the Nations League matches later this year. See how he goes whilst also looking at other candidates. I'm sure Lee would happily step in even though it might turn out to be temporary, as the experience would be invaluable, he would get a preview of what it's like to step up to that level, and if he wins us the Nations League (which we got relegated in under Southgate) and gets us promoted back to League A again, then he would certainly make a name for himself and make himself a top candidate for the longer term position. Promoting the U21 manager to the first team worked for Spain, maybe it will work for us. Lee also knows many if not all of the younger players and likely managed several too.
Well said Gary Neville! And thats coming from a Liverpool fan! But I do like Gary Neville, depite the fact that he played for The Scum!...lol..😂 He always comes across well, speaks admirably and respectfully and gives a very good acct of himself and I respect him for that.
But seriously now....all this hate that is being thrown at Gareth Southgate from disenchanted England fans, that are too young (in the main) to know how, in the past, we've had just as many great individuals, that when you collectively, put them in an England shirt, couldn't string 3 passes together!
We haven't seen anything like what Gareth has achieved in the last 8 yrs, not since we won the WC in '66...its been solid disappointment after disappointment ever since!
For those that know, GS, has been nothing short of a revelation for England. I wanted nothing more for him than to see him lift that trophy, something that he so richly deserves.
My guess, is that in time, when we realise how far England have fallen from the days that he was in charge, we will be crying out to have him back! We'll be pleading for him to rejoin as manager once again...and then, maybe, people will finally acknowledge just how good we've had it lately! And then, just maybe, we'll get a 2nd bite at this very, very special and under-appreciated cherry!
God bless you Gareth, I wish you well and I'll miss you!....its all down hill for us from now on...but thank you so much for everything you did and for all the hope you gave us..I wish you well...💞
Am I missing something? Neville failed miserable in management and gave up, who is he to say or tell what managers to do?
Lampard for next England Manager!
Choose a coach that builds a team around Cole Palmer. Thank you
Yes! Was saying this before the tournament. Could be Englands best player for the next 10 years. Apparently he was too “raw” for Southgate… 🙄
@@oscartakudzwavambe4623 Just like Chelski ? 👍 🤣😉
Bellingham must have been insufferable. I bet none of the other players like him.
The dislike for Bellingham and the scapegoating is shocking. He's loved in Spain. I wish he could have played for Spain.
England fans hating Bellingham's mentality shows how foreign a winning mentality is to them. No surprise the lack of success
He's a footballing diva . Needs to improve character and performance at international level .
@Stevaldoxporiginal Kid was born in the wrong country. His brashness, ego and confidence is loved in Spain. I'm not surprised Spain won and England lost. He's loved in a country that constantly produces champions.
@@RicardoRichards-c6f I agree totally . He could follow a path similar to what Beckham did before . A lot of us were born in the wrong country .
Shame didn't even do it before start of Euros. Hey garry fancy him at United ??😂
Get kloop he will play trent at RB and Palmer and ollie w
These last 7 games have tarnished his reputation. The decision to stop attacking football can only be laid at his door and not the players. He torpedoed England's chances far more than their opponents giving his team such an unintended handicap that they had no realistic chance to win beyond mere hope. England showed such promise when they attacked with vigour and the ''might have beens'' are almost endless. Such a waste, purely down to timid tactics and nothing else.
As a Welshman, I hope you appoint Roy Hodgson, I liked him 😄 But in all seriousness, who the hell would want to manage England these days!! So much pressure to win a trophy, and the pressure gets bigger and bigger each tournament!! Southgate should've won something, you were very lucky to get to the final this year. Last World Cup you were actually much better, better to watch, more attacking football, more ruthless. You were unlucky v France, you were actually better than them on the day. You could've won the cup 2 years ago. You would've beaten Morocco for sure, maybe Argentina on your day.
Eddie Howe would be a good bet for the job.
Sir Alf Ramsey is our most successful manager, and the 66 group of players were the golden generation who were proud to represent their country.....Facts
southgate is the second most succesful manager in england national teams history. only manager to reach a final on foreign soil and 2 successive euro finals. FACTS
We haven't won anything, we've been relegated in the nations league and played dire football
Amazing achievement
He may have done a great job but that doesn’t stop the media blaming him.
I hope Sir Jim appoints him Utd manager. He'd do well for them😊
Great comments from Gary Neville. I've really enjoyed listening to him and Jamie Carragher. These 2 guys have spoken a hell of a lot of sense in the aftermath of the final. They've just called it so honestly. They are right I believe. The failings to pinpoint as to why we didn't get over the line are spot on.
I don't believe Southgate could have done anything to bridge the gap in quality with the Spanish players. Our guys do not have the quality in possession. Simple as that. Same failing for decades. A manager can't change that. It's a whole footballing infastructure. There's a reason the same countries have, 4, 5, 6, 7 trophies, because they have that coaching infastructure. You can't develop it in a few years, it done over decades. Only Spain and France in the last 2 decades have entered the Brazil/Argentina/Germany/Italy circle. Those 6 countries dominate international football. England having a strong league can enter but it takes the will and ability to recognise our flaws instead of blaming the manager all the time.
Gary Neville is the footballs version of the boxer promotor Eddie Hearn. Loves a camera in his face. Loves the sound of his own voice. Never says anything worth listening too
Any coach would have achieved the same results with these players...
The massive entitlement.
No, any pro manager would have done better.
You mean like previous coaches did with previous golden generations?
@@bladesman1963 Venables would have won the tournament with these players
Best player of La Liga, top scorer of Bundesliga, the best players in the two English teams that reached the UCL quarter finals, etc. what else can you ask for? Spain had players from Bilbao and R Sociedad and clubs in Arabia in the line up...
