Are you however admitting that Southgate is possibly the best manager we’ve had? Ramsey won the World Cup but never achieved the consistency Southgate has.
Only chap who actually won a major tournament with England is not as good as the guy who consistently hasnt.

Sure. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I dont think Southgate has the tactical ability to out think some of the worlds best managers at the top international teams. IMO England have by far the best selection of top players to choose from and they are young, meaning realistically we should win a major tournament within the next 8 years.

Although i would prefer a more experienced manager its difficult to not give Southgate a new job. He's done fantastic

Possibly was the word and you ignored consistency. Ramsey won us the World Cup and that’s great but ‘possibly’ Southgate could win it for us in Qatar. If he did would you still be scrabbling around looking for reasons to criticise him? And then putting laughing faces after your own quotes like you’ve said something hilarious? Southgate has yet to win anything but if he does he will put Ramsey in the shade. But of course if he does it will have been luck, won’t it.

Don’t worry bud. Nothing to be ashamed of. I think Burnley college have adult literacy classes.
At least you got a like, but then he laughs at his own jokes so not sure of the value of that.

There’s an old adage that you shouldn’t argue with an idiot. Judging by the opinion that a World Cup winning manager is ‘possibly’ a lesser manager than one who has come up short, suggests now is the time to leave. Continuing the argument with a fantasy full of if’s, buts and maybe’s confirms is definitely time to exit.

Best of luck to you, Houseboy. Never change… Never Change!

Don’t worry mate, I won’t. And I don’t think your an idiot. You shouldn’t put yourself down.

Let’s talk again after Qatar, there will be humble pie a plenty for one of us.

All the best to you mate, it’s good to have a laugh.

He blew it in the Eurooean final at Wembley. His substitutions for one thing in resoect of penalties but not going for the kill was also a major crime. Still.we beat San Marino who Bacup Borough would match. Talking of beating Germany what about tge 5-1 in Munich? Even the Carpet notched that night.
