Overachieving at the world cup might end up being his downfall in the end. The Euros will be a good judge and I'd consider QF's about right. I'm looking at the bigger picture. There's no manager in the world that would come in and make us world beaters cos our problems run far deeper than just who the manager is or what squad he selects. We've started to make changes recently which Southgate has been a part of and he's been around the set up years well having managed the u21s. It'll take years to see any true benefit though but, I don't see any reason why we'd get rid.

He was a centre back mate and at least he had the bottle to take one. Your anger would be better placed at Paul Ince for that one.
True, but there’s changes he could make, imo. Gomez for Keane, Chilcott for Rose, give TAA a shot at RB too. At least that would be a more mobile defence. Oh, and anybody but Henderson and Rice in midfield!
