I mean who remembers Steve McClaren's reign?

And Switzerland had at this tournament what we ironically used to do under Sven, decent performances on average that gets knocked out at the Quarters.
Indeed and people forget that most good managers don't want to manage at international level, they'd much rather be in club football. So the idea that we'd replace Southgate with some managerial genius is for the birds

That is a very good point imo.

Most of the best Managers are in club Football.

And some people do want to be careful what they wish for, we could end up with Steven Gerrard as our next Manager.

England dont need a tactical genius they just need a manager who has some tactical ideas. GS doesnt have any.
