Pope has been very good but he's produced some ricks lately and he did in his last England game. Well I think Sky Sports and the Southern press have done a great job on you.

huss9 Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 all those bigging up southgate for the semi/final/qaurters in the last tournaments. have you seen our squad? any half decent coach would have achieved that. a coach with some tactical nouse or a pro-active outlook would have done better.

Rod Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 The first 45 minutes we played like a team managed by Pep Guardiola. The second half was definitely a Steve Bruce managed team. How can that be? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old 'this generation (that everyone thought were a bunch of nobodies until Southgate came along) are actually the real golden generation that Southgate's holding back argument.

Doesn’t mean that teams don’t become poor. This is the worst generation of Italian players post-war. Couldn’t qualify for two successive WCs for the first time in their history. I’m sure all those who think Southgate is a good manager will call for him to get the NUFC job when it becomes available. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you think Italy are a bad team then. That's fair enough; I don't agree, but fair enough. Personally I think they're absolutely littered with talent and have a manager many were (rightly) fawning over, as he led them to the Euros win. I'm a Southgate fan but wouldn't want him as Newcastle boss. That's pure strawman. The respective jobs could hardly be more different. I wouldn't be surprised at all if he didn't go anywhere near club management whenever his time with England ends, but that's by the by. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
