    Closest style of play to Klopp they could've went for. With Michael Edwards back at Liverpool it was always going to be an outside the box appointment.

    I'm not disputing other coaches have made a balls up of winning things, I'm talking about Southgate bottling it and not agreeing with you about him being the right man for the job. You're sounding very angry by the way, it's only a discussion

    He has done a lot more than most England managers have done.

    I'm not angry in the slightest. You asked what he'd won with arguably the best set of players around. I put forward some other questions to illustrate the point that winning international tournaments is an impossibly high bench mark against which to judge a coach's ability. One chance very two years.

    I don't think he bottled anything. He's stuck to his guns throughout, despite public criticism that he should be more attacking against the lesser teams, and he's got us further in more tournaments than any other manager. There's a reasonable argument that he's not tactically flexible enough.

    He's useless mate and has bottled the last 2 competitions, that's enough for me to believe he's ****e and shouldn't be anywhere near the england job but because the FA are weak and cowards then he'll probably be there for a while

    Still think he’s crap, I would feel like topping myself if I thought the boring git was coming any where near us.

    Whoever comes in will get my full support. Just like every other manager has in my lifetime. Pity not everyone can say the same.

    Bit puzzled with this one Bob, don't understand why he'd be there tbh. He can't be assessing the players in an end of season nothing match.
    It can't be a club scout, they wouldn't allow it.

    Any idea what he was doing?
