No Chance! He's bought into the project. Why the he'll would he make that move right now? It's a thankless take. And having Pep on that list is just laughable. Why the fook would heaven co aider it? Mind you, the rest of that list shows just how crap our line of home-grown managers is. Fook me.
I actually think what Eddie does with us will end up landing him the England Job one day. As you say his only real competition is Potter if we want to go English which I think we should btw. Well unless Pep or Klopp want the job of course. Which neither ever would.
The FA won't sack Southgate, so he's going nowhere unless he spits his dummy out over the criticism. When your country comes calling, I wouldn't rule anyone out, but for me it's Howe or Potter. Either way, we don't need the speculation.
I fail to see why we'll sack southgate. We got to a world cup semi final for the first time in ages, we're just on a bad run in friendly games that don't mean anything.
I never watched a single game under him in the world or euros.. Just had the easiest run of games in 50 years We're poor
He got us to a semi final of a world cup with a bunch of kids. These games are just warm ups and we weren't even starting our strongest side.
You're trolling if you're comparing semi final of a world cup with a young team vs 12th in the prem. This is a non comparable scenario.
No I've watched every England game and it's poor.. World Cup wasn't impressive neither was the euros. If you only look at the top line that's not my problem. Bruce came 12th and had the best start in 10 years , but unfortunately it was very misleading.. Correct?
lol well if you're not impressed with us, you'll not be impressed with the vast majority of teams out there because we finished 4th. So if we're ****, then so is everyone bar the 3 teams ahead of us.
No I can just see good football vs a run vs poor teams scraping results. England are crap.. They've got Iran USA and Wales, so he can't fail though
We're just on bad form. These games we're playing now don't really matter, it's a meaningless comp to act as a warm up. It's essentially friendlies. There are other usually good teams doing **** also. Hungary are pissing our league above England, Germany and Italy... It's clear that the bigger teams are not really taking this **** seriously. It's just a run about on a pitch.
No one wants the England job, hence clowns like Lampard and Gerrard are getting rumoured for it, and hence Southgate got it in the first place. Why would Pep or Howe want to leave clubs where they've got unlimited spending to get the best players in the world to make do with the crap at England. Plus Southgate clearly isn't leaving , this was a defeat in a mickey mouse tournament that no one gives a **** about.
The problem with Gareth is he genuinely is a bit rubbish. In the same way that Bruce is rubbish. They think football is all about arms round shoulders, then when there's the slightest bit of criticism they'll start to do odd things with player positions and formations just to prove they know best. That's where the failures become more constant; the further they get from consistent tactics, the worse it gets. But unlike club management, which ends in the sack, it's different for Gareth. He's not going anywhere. The FA are as incompetent as the manager they picked, he's a product of their system, ingrained in their mentality and has a lot of mates there. Besides all this, what do we really think should be happening? Semi finals, even finalists, is the very best we should expect - we're certainly not the best nation in the world so regardless of luck getting to these latter stages is over-achieving. I'm not even sure anyone else could do better; you've still got the same issues of English players at bigger clubs being propped up by talented foreigners. Is Stones, or Sterling, or Grealish the reason City won the league?! Is it ****, it's KDB, Rodri, Diaz, Silva, etc. Same with Liverpool, Henderson's decent enough midfielder but he's not the reason they're getting to a UCL final. Final point - who ****ing cares? International football is boring af.
No, I'm seeing what the end results of our performances are. We can only beat what's in front of us. We got to a semi final and a final. What else would you expect? What is it you think we're all not understanding?
