The problem with international managers is it's so easy to blag your way through, the teams usually take care of themselves, with England, we always have decent players around and that will get you so far, it's moments like this that really show the managers ability, we are absolutely awful and Southgate doesn't have a clue about what to do other than hope some kind of form kicks in. He's been papering over the cracks for far too long, the world cup run we had a lot of good luck with the fixtures and with a decent manager we would have made the final. We were much better in the Euros admittedly, but again with a decent manager we beat Italy.
It's never going to happen but I think the best manager for us would be an arsehole like Mourinho.
