Agreed.

Against Ukraine it felt like he was getting annoyed because things he can usually do weren't coming off so he tried even harder and it just got worse!

A bit erratic and not a cool head.

Just needs someone to calm him down and give him a bit of support.

 

obv you haven’t watched him much 2nd half season as he has been in great for for ev.

 

I'm quite impressed with the way Southgate handles himself with the media. Unlike a lot of managers, he don't have to act the boss, he is the boss and does everything with dignity, that makes a big difference when handling young players. Now he has the most difficult job of all, having to select a starting eleven for the final against Italy, and telling some young lads, they will be on the bench, I don't envy him that task.

 

The only mistake against Ukraine was the coming out to help save a MF/defence error. He just mistimed his kick. Can’t remeber anything else.

maybe I’m bias, but for England he has always been too draw.

 

It was more than one kick.

He went a bit erratic. Could see it in his face and body language.

 

YEEESSSSSSSSSSSS!

Southgate you're the one. You still turn me on, and football's coming home again

 

Not sure if you have noticed but he has a verey distinct habit of staring straight at the interviewer when being asked a question but looking down to his right when answering.
A sign of thoughtful but honest answers.

 

You thought he was great tonight so I don’t think your post carries too much weight I’m afraid

 

shocking tonight. His kicking was all over the show, the free kick should have been saved and the worse part was 1 throw went to a danish player and 1 kick went to a danish player but he was lucky they didn't punish us with it.

Fortunately, it hasn't cost us but i really hope he gets his confidence back because he was really bad today even though he's had a fantastic tournament

 

Lol gay

 

brutal

 

Has Schmeichal called for the competition to be null and voided yet? He normally does when his team can't win it.


As does Rio, tbf.

 

I actually said to my wife that England need Denmark to score to wake them up

All worked out well in the end

 

When he lost it in the last game i thought it might be because he was looking at the most clean sheet record.
Tonight i wondered if he has gone like that because he knows if we lose he will probably get most of the blame.
Pressure is a bastard, specially if you know that many would prefer another in your place.

 

Bloke is a ****ing legend mate. Second most successful England manager ever.

To quote some famous commentary: "Gareth Southgate, the whole of England is with you."



Its coming!

 

let in 1 and Kasper 2.

one must have been bad then.

 

Nah, don't think he's gay mate, a bit weird but mostly a normal bloke.

 

We win and he is the focus of all that was wrong.
I’m off.

 

and he's a nice guy to boot. Gets the presidential approval from me

 

Heres hoping he isn’t our weak link on Sunday
