I believe this will be Southgate’s last tournament as England manager what ever we achieve or not. After eight years he is due a well earned rest IMO, being England manager is still the biggest managerial role in world football and whatever our opinions on him the pressure must be intolerable at times. The British press like a lot of our fanbase are extremely fickle and unforgiving and yes it happens in other countries too but in the UK we have a certain way of turning the screw on an individual when it suits us. I hope he goes away, has a long rest from the game and comes back when and if he’s ready, I still think he would make a very good club manager but again it’s just my opinion.
