If anyone told me that Germany would have back to back group stage exits and that Italy would miss two World Cups, I'd have laughed in your face and called you a "Paolo".

I for one will continue to engage in a celebration of mediocrity that is the England football team.
And we (Scotland) are pretty decent right now too.

Rapture commeth!
+1 amazing job by Steve Clarke. Again, he may not be the club manager everyone is after but for his national team he's the one who could take the Scots back to a World Cup in '26.

Good point about Clarke, a good national manager does not a good club manager make or vica versa necessarily.
Take Scaloni, barely any club management experience at all.

It is a good point. But Southgate is neither a good club or country manager.

Maybe, but when you look at England's record pre Soutgate I think history will eventually judge him more kindly.

His achievements are about par given his resources, some very good players just not enough depth in crucial areas or without having anyone truely spectacular or fit to change a game. (Mbappe, Messi, CR7, Modric, etc)

They should have extra time after every England game where all the players and fans get to repeatedly kick ShitGate in his teeth

Snoozegate will prove all of you naysayers wrong when all the big clubs are queuing up for his services when he's finished boring the nation to death 😴
