…a perfect appointment for AFCB…
Genuinely wouldn’t want Southgate anywhere near the Bournemouth job. How on earth does this guy find himself the national team manager?

Yeh I know. Was just commenting on how bizarre it is that virtually none of us would want the current national team manager at a championship job.…it was tongue-in-cheek y’know…
What, you mean in a group with Panama. Needing a late goal to beat Tunisia. Edging out a very average Sweden side in the last 16, and then scraping past an equally average Columbia side on penalties? Literally every time we played a half decent side we lost, Belgium twice and Croatia. He got lucky with the draw, that’s all.We got to the semis in the World Cup 3 years ago. He’s not all bad.

Yes, but you actually have to look at the reality of the situation when using it as an argument to support Southgate’s credentials. Does beating Panama, Tunisia and Sweden, and scraping a penalty shoot out against Columbia really make him good enough for the England job?A semi final is a semi final. Wouldn’t argue if we got to the semi finals of the fa cup in anyway would we?
I’m sure some on here still would….A semi final is a semi final. Wouldn’t argue if we got to the semi finals of the fa cup in anyway would we?

They all come out of the same FA coaching school, only way to break the cycle is with a foreign coach.
It does, he plays negative football. Do you prefer that?We won the opening game of the Euros for the first time in how long, if ever, we’ve got 4 points, 2 clean sheets, yes we were crap tonight but I’m not sure it deserves the negativity.
I’d be happy if we got the FA cup semi final. But if we did it by beating league one teams in every round I would also be able to recognise that it doesn’t necessarily mean our manager is a genius.I’m sure some on here still would….

How many shots on target? I’m not arguing that it wasn’t deserved, I’m arguing that with the draw that we got the semi finals was the minimum that we should have achieved.4 points after 2 games, 2 clean sheets, you’re arguing that a semi final position isn’t deserved because of the opposition or draw. When we go out by all means make an argument but it’s a little premature now isn’t it.
