Southgate has got them to 2 finals, World Cup semi and a World Cup quarter final.

Miles better than any of his predecessors apart from Alf Ramsey obviously.

Self entitlement from online gobshites means nothing.
Easy games to win to get there and then not having an actual plan to win the final.

Even Moyes got us to semi finals and finals , we just lost the game before the first ball was kicked. Same with England.

This team tonight , with some adjustments could have battered Spain. You have easily 80-100 goals last season in like 4/5 players , yet we struggle to create or score all tournament? Theres your problem.

A team that can get Bellingham, foden, Palmer , rice, saka all playing together will dominate international football.
 
He was immense all tournament?
He got bailed out a few times by stones and Pickford when he let players run off him. Don’t think he was bad at all, but just a bit underwhelming.

Other than stones, I think we have a real lack of quality defensively now, certainly compared to years gone by.
 
Went into all those games with a negative mentality with the possible exception of the France QF

The only really impressive win in any of those tournaments was against Germany in our own backyard.

He's shown he can get us to the finals, the next step is winning one and he's shown he doesn't have the bottle for that.
I agree they were garbage, but they still got to a final.

Spain are superior, that’s it really.

Stopped reading there

Delusional self entitlement
 

There’s an adage, ‘there’s no shame in going out fighting and getting your butt kicked, but no honour in going out and not fighting at all’. They gave it the fight and got beat by the better side, the Italy final was more frustrating to take because they shut up too early
