His record is padded. How many good teams has he actually beaten? It’s all well being a flat track bully. Btw Capello has a better win % ratio than failgate. Just saying You're busy gloating that England have been knocked out so I'm not sure why you think I'd take your opinion seriously on anything.

Whoever replaces him will have a lot to love up to seeing as Southgate has done a WC SF, QF and Euros final, better record than any manager since 66.

England are now in a better position because of his work with the squad, so they could attract a higher quality of manager.

Yes , because he didn't win the penalty. It was stupid french defending , who as the last man making no attempt to win the ball should of gone . Are you on crack? Mount had got himself into the box and a potential goal scoring position when he was fouled and won a penalty for it. I know your all up...

Krbfc , can we now say Southgate's xxxx . Saka and Foden were scaring them to death , so he takes them off for the Chelsea muppets . Plus Grealish for 2 minutes !!!

If Kane had scored the penalty won by Mount, would you still be saying Chelsea Muppets?

We weren't scaring the French to death.

Nobody in this generation or the last is on the level of Messi and Ronaldo though. Neymar is the tier below with every other world class player of the last 20 years bar the special 2.

I must admit I am one who doesn’t like the stats side. Too much is made of them I think. I’m old school in the belief only one stat matters: who scored most goals.

Eden Hazard announces his international retirement and I sense he won't be the last.

It's probably for the best, his body hasn't been able to cope with just league football, he has no chance with adding international football into the mix, which reduces his rest time.

What do those stats mean? Is a completed pass where the team retains possession or a team mate gets the next touch on the ball? How long is a long pass? How do the stats differentiate between an attempted pass and a clearance. Do the stats take into account the person on the receiving end of the pa...

But stats / data have to be interpreted and used correctly. If Everton have a small forward who can’t head a ball then of course Pickford’s long distance passing % will be lower. In fact, Richarlison was their striker for most of the season and he’s not exactly a target man is he? Compare that with...

Pope really doesn’t do fine with his feet. Of course he can play simple 10 yard passes, which footballer can’t. But his long kicking is wayward, as in, the rest of the team don’t know which direction the ball will be played, and his biggest weaknesses are his ball control and composure on the ball....

Pope is not good enough with his feet for a possession based team. If he was, he’d have been snapped up by a top team a while back. If you can’t see or understand that then fair enough. Pickford also is not ‘gash’ at Everton, they would be have been relegated without him last season, he was outstan...

Popes ball control and passing is fine, it always has been, the stats even back that up The problem is there are numerous fans on here who don't look at the actual stats and proceed to claim Pope can't pass a ball with his feet.

To be fair, he probably wouldn't bother if he intended to step down. Their squad with Lukaku, Kompany Hazzard etc was exceptional given the pool of players to pick from. Hazard has been injury hit, out of form and unreliable since he went to RM. Lukaku has had a sketchy time since he made the Chels...

Has Martinez left?
Can't really see how he could have done any better for them, their "golden generation" has aged.

As the manager it's his job to introduce new players to the squad and phase out others when he feels they've reached the end of their usefulness.
