Thanks for the deep analysis. All this shows is he is better at managing England than he was at managing Boro. 
 

We knew that anyway.

He has better players now but still fails against decent opposition.

Rubbish appointment but so FA.

@TonyTonyTony so, if you had:

- The best player in the Bundesliga

- The best player in La Liga

- Three of the European Champions first choice side

- The premier leagues best young wide attacker (Saka)

- The premier leagues second best DM (Rice)

…would you not think that there should be a reasonable debate that you should be winning the Euros? This isn’t saying Southgate’s bad. It’s saying that only probably France can compete with that resource wise, so it has to be looked at in the lens of what are reasonable expectations with that resource, as opposed to facepalms. Thats not really arguing a point…

Just seen this on twitter which is why you shouldn’t believe stats as that is surely absolute bollocks:

OPTA stats confirming that was Jordan Pickford's first mistake that has led to a goal in 60 England appearances.
 

I like Pickford but I swear he’s made mistakes in the past for England

Thank you, thank you. This is exactly what I've been saying

Bring back the aubergine. Really hate the lazy face palm.

None of that equates to automatically winning it does it? As you say, France has equal opportunity - there is never a divine right to win a trophy.

We have been in the mix in recent tournaments, and i expect we will be in the mix in the forthcoming Euros. I hope the gold dust of Bellingham takes us over the line.

Southgate has been a good manager for England - i don't see how anyone can argue against that.
