Redtrojan Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 8 minutes ago, LondonBristolian said: Not convinced by him at club level but you have to deny reality completely to pretend a manager who has delivered a semi final, a final and a quarter final in three successive tournaments is anything other than our second most effective manager. His record is better than Robson, Venables or anyone else but Sir Alf. Unless things change then his reign will end in embarrassing disappointment but he has done a better job than most in the role. And, in 2018 and 2022, he did it with teams that were not rated before the tournament. Crap though this is, let’s not pretend reality is not reality in order to make a point. And had significantly better players to work with.Virtually any coach would have achieved the same with this much talent at their disposal. To suggest Southgate is anywhere near as good as Venables is ridiculous. Venables with this group of players would have been fantastic.

That isn't always a top indicator always though. I suspect e.g. Lingard (2018) may have earned similar to or more than Brozovic but the latter is far more accomplished, at helping control midfield certainly. Albeit Slovakia are barely comparable to Croatia of 2018. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To suggest Southgate is anywhere near as good as Venables is ridiculous. Venables with this group of players would have been fantastic. Rose-tinted nonsense, from first word to the last. Netherlands aside, England stuttered through Euro 96. A stuttering draw with Switzerland, a routine win v Scotland and a 0-0 draw with Spain. It was a great tournament psychologically but less impressive than people remember in terms of performances. England has been crap in 2014 and 2016 and then Southgate got a semi-final in 2018 with virtually the same players who had struggled before. And the 2021 team of finalists were not a team of vintage players. Ironically 2022 and 2024 have been the tournaments with strong players. He underachieved in those two but that does not negate from his overachievement in 2018 and 2021. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
