Its a different skill set so hard to judge I don't think klopp would make a good international manager for example because he needs that day to day relationship with the players, I'm not convinced pep would either with his over thinking These players buy in to what Southgate wants them to do, even if it means passing backwards and being on a leash, or sitting out games and being rotated, would they be the same for Smith?

Impossible to tell You dont think Southgate has been studying Pep and will whip out an incredible new tactic for the Denmark game. Maybe Jack as a holding midfielder or Sterling as a false nine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just saying if we do win it (still a big if), it would be an awesome achievement to do so without conceding a single goal at the tournament.

I just watched a video on Facebook of England fans showing how much it meant to them by hitting their heads into walls, pouring pints over their own heads, sliding in massive puddles, lying on the ground whilst other grown men pour beer all over them. Why is it a competition to show why it means more to them than anyone else by doing something really stupid? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything seems to be just for show nowadays. You look at these fan parks and I know this is going to sound massively sexist, but i'm sure a lot of the women there aren't even interested in football. Just a facebook/insta opportunity.

mykeyb Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 I don't rate Southgate at all. I feel that in the last world cup we went out at the first point we played a decent team and in the euros again we have played average teams until now. If he beats Italy I will be impressed but it won't really change my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
