England fans want Gareth Southgate for a chat by the firepit after Nations League humiliation – The Warm-Up
WEDNESDAY’S BIG STORIES Credit in the Bank vs Southgate Out Ad/> What do you mean you picked Love Island over witnessing England suffer their biggest home defeat for 94 years? Oh, you switched over, did you? When you heard about the boos? And the chants of “sacked in the morning”? Okay, yeah, fair enough. UEFA Nations League'Nobody cares about us' — Courtois warns of more injuries due to busy calendar11/10/2021 AT 17:08 That was some way for the campaign to close, and while every single England player who endured this Nations League hike at the end of a marathon fully deserve their break, it’s safe to say Southgate might not enjoy his. “I'm not going to say it doesn't hurt,” said Southgate, after the 4-0 defeat to Hungary and cries of “You don’t know what you’re doing” from the Molineux crowd.
At Wolves it was pretty clear cut, but it would appear the nation is utterly divided on Southgate, so let’s gather round the firepit to discuss his future and see if we can reach some middle ground between Credit in the Bank FC and the Southgate Out army: Look, he took us to a World Cup semi-final and the European Championship final. He’s given us some of the best memories we’ve had in recent years. He knows what it takes at tournaments.
He’s got credit in the bank. Yeah, but we lost that semi-final. We lost that final.
And the 4-0 loss to Hungary? That is England’s worst home defeat since 1928! Southgate out. Well, he made nine changes, the players are tired and it’s mid-June. What did you expect? Not that.
It also capped off a four-game winless run in the Nations League. That has killed off all the momentum in a World Cup year. What momentum? Er.
