    He's staying for Euro 24, which he needs to win or he's just another failure who happened to reach a final.

    Bit mixed on this, can see why he'd get another crack but at the same time they could have also brought in an available cup winning manager (Tuchel) to be given the specific job of winning the thing.

    Genuinely don't think Southgate will win, but we've got the best squad, along with France, so will support his efforts in trying.

    Then he goes.

    We need to qualify first Chief.

    italy in our group remember and we'll need to take points from them otherwise it opens the door for Ukraine and North Macedonia.

    I'm no GS fan tbf ... his plan to get us out of jail against France, taking off the games most effective attacking talent to replace him with the ineffective Raheem Sterling was baffling ...

    He also left Maddison on the bench ... the English player with most goals from outside the box in the squad ... when you really needed something different - now I accept I'm biased.. and he might still have been carrying an injury ... but, if not...<doh>

    So easy... <laugh> ...

    Gareth ain't been given bottomless pockets bruv ...

    ... and Klopp didn't manage to win the Prem League title until after a squad costing half of what his goalie cost had already managed it ...

    .... meanwhile Pep, with similar pockets <whistle>

    To be fair Gareth has something in comparison with Klopp...

    Didn't Klopp win two finals without scoring a goal from open play? :bandit:

    Would rather the French win today.

    For me Maradona was the greatest and I'd like to keep it that way.

    He'd still be the greatest for me ... whatever the outcome today ...

    ... the players that Messi will line up with today (indeed the whole Argentinian squad) is of much better quality, overall, than the squad that Maradona played with and which he, seemingly almost single handedly at times, 'dragged' to world cup glory ... <ok>

    Waste of time giving Southgate the next tournament...nothing but loyalty. The FA even left the decision to Southgate...weak organisation.

    We didn't lose because of a French masterclass...we lost that game because inspiration was required from the manager at a certain portion of the game...when the French were on the ropes. He failed to react...he never reacts when required.

    We have got to these semi finals and finals despite of him not because of him...he's wasting precious time in charge of this talented squad


    Nice guy though so I guess **** it...let him take charge...his niceness must deserve it...he can waste the talent if he wants because he's nice...that's cool... makes sense
