The FA appointed two managers, Eriksson and Capello, who were not a great success, but they both played old style Italian defence minded systems.
I agree that we have a group of very talented young players. The top teams in the world would sign Alexander Arnold if he was available, but Southgate focuses on his defensive weaknesses rather than his obvious attacking strengths.
He even picked him to play in midfield. The lad can probably play in any position, but does Southgate think he knows better than Klopp what his best position is? We’ve got three centre backs, two defensive midfielders and Kane spending a lot of his time as an extra right back.
