When Sven Goran Eriksson gave a team talk at half-time in the 2002 World Cup game against Brazil, the players found it less than inspiring. Gareth Southgate is quoted as saying later, 'We needed Churchill but we got Iain Duncan Smith'.

I heard that. Very droll.

What inspiration did he need
He was at a world cup playing Brazil

I'm sorry that I tried to contribute to this thread in a positive way.

Schoolboy error.

They really shouldn’t have needed talking up. They had the enormous honour of playing for their country.

Such a comment coming from Mr Inspiration, Southgate is a bit rich. His England teams have enjoyed the very simplest of routes through two World Cup and the last European tournament, and brought sod all home. I think he would do well to keep his thoughts to himself.

This may seem ridiculously critical (thinking of slapping myself round the head with a wet fish) but could he be too nice?

I imagine in order to be a football manager, there needs to be an internal Rottweiler that can emerge as required from time to time?

He seems more Labrador than Rottweiler.

Yuck, wet fish unpleasant!

Currently slapping myself around the head with a whale! Fantastic win. You Rssss.
