ponsaelius Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 (edited) Headlines a bit much. Sounds like he just has an injury - not great news for us. Edited September 5, 2023 by ponsaelius Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Injury? He had quite a few niggling injuries last year that slowed his progress. Let’s hope it’s fairly benign Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronson333 Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 On whether he's spoken to Newcastle midfielder Eliot Anderson about playing for England, Kieran Trippier said: "In pre-season he was unbelievable. "It was good for him last season to stay with us, gain that experience and not go out on loan. "He's a young lad with great potential. Obviously we've had talks but ultimately it's his decision."

andycap Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 Southgate makes a rod for his own back. By playing oaps in the team instead of blooding in young talent. Now Anderson and Barnes are looking at Scotland what could he say to change there minds? Your in our plans but not until Henderson hits forty.

Despite getting us our best tournament positions for a long time, there's always a cluster of players included or excluded unfairly it seems. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andycap Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 Lets be honest in the two tournaments we done well in. we could of won if we had a better manager at the helm. The italy game in the final oldest backline in history yet we knick a goal and sit back for the rest of the match. Should of terrorised them with our wingers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Southgate debate has been done to death, but there's a reason he's one of England's most successful managers. He's tactically limited and his favouritism is becoming worse over time, but his tournament record is very good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Novocastrian Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 Hardly a huge achievement for Southgate to get England into the 2018 semi-finals. Finish second in the group to Belgium and then beat Colombia and Sweden. Would have been outrageous to not reach the semis. Agree that the debate has been done to death but let's dispense with the 'one of England's best ever managers' trope. He's extremely average and limited, a corporate FA suit.

gbandit Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 I don’t think he’s a corporate FA suit, I think he speaks really well on a lot of issues and is a decent person. I think he’s brought the England squad together in a way that many managers massively struggled with in the past. His issues are with team selection and tactics, neither are making the best use of the players Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Novocastrian Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 It's unfortunate that he's better at the social media aspect of football management than he is the actual player selection and tactics. I hope the next manager has more of a grip on his remit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coaches, fitness gurus, dieticians etc. They all contribute to the comeraderie of the team not just Southgate. So I think you are being over generous in your assumption "he's brought the squad together". You just have to look at the Newcastle backroom staff. Southgates job as you say are team selection, tactics and formations of which he is extremely average and that's me being kind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 (edited) Southgate needs to step aside. Let a manager with fresh ideas come in and let new players get a chance. As an England supporter there's no way we should be letting Scotland have Elliott or Barnes. Henderson's international career should have been over the second he went to the Saudi league to play kick about with Stevie G.

OverThere Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 England selection is a joke. Southgate spends most of his time at Crystal Palace and definitely not much time outside of the M25. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
