it's what happens when you play people out of position who are playing with people also out of position.

Southgate should have dropped half the big names in the squad freeing those who were left to play in the positions they are best suited to. Harry Kane shouldn't even have made the squad let alone play every game

i doubt Klopp makes a good national team manager



that is a whole lot different than coaching a club



same that Guardiola wouldn't be a good manager for Spain


or Cannavaro as a manager for Italy, wouldn't work either


or Zidane with France wouldn't work either



-----
Christophe Galtier and Lee Carsley would be the best choice now, an experienced manager with someone with the knowledge of the national youth teams as his right hand assistent, and i'd say approach someone like Taffarel as goalkeepers coach to work with Pickford to make him even better, and work on getting some great alternate options behind Pickford in case of a injury or absence for another reason or suspension

The crazy thing is that by picking the same damn players each game and getting the same disappointing performance it must have been unbelievably frustrating for all the others

If he’d have stayed on as manager possibly some players may have made themselves unavailable like Ben White did

Just watch TAA flourish at Real Madrid All Stars who are set to dominate football for the next decade ..

I can just see TAA sending those long , laser guided passes up to Mbappe and Vinicius


Interestingly my beloved Barca will be reliant on a team of youngsters under 23 plus Lewandowski and Gundogan

TAA is crap, how many goals did he let in at liverpool in recent times, thats why he was tried in midfield because he couldn't be relied on defensively

Kyle Walker is the best English right back of my lifetime.

I used to be undecided who was best between Gary Neville and Walker. But Walker made my mind up in this tournament and now makes my all time England XI

Agreed but like all others he has had a poor tournament

You could argue that Walker was responsible for both Spain goals and two or three other wasted chances !!

He was seen by the players as a man they could go to, like a very friendly uncle.

That's no good. A manager has to be tough, almost feared by the players, so they have to play a good game.

He was too soft.

The good news is Southgate's gone finally, the bad news is Potter wants the job.

To all who ridiculed the hiring of say Lampard or Gerrard, how do you feel about Potter as England manager.

My opinion, he's not the most exciting, I just hope he brings some attacking football to the national squad.

I think in this day and age, for national football!

Us the public should pick the players for our nation, maybe in a ballot box type scenario. Those players should then get on with it themselves. With our backing of course.

Ive probably opened another can if worms for left and right to fight at the ballot box though, and depending on the way the political bias is towards at the time maybe some strange players playing for them.

Be good that for an experiment..

Potter, Lamps and Gerrard are all much off a muchness?

Thought they wanted Pep

Tbf, weren't Kane joint leading goalscorer of the tournament?
