Gareth Southgate has called out England fans again for jeering Jordan Henderson but Mark Goldbridge says it's about time Southgate acknowledged why they are doing it. Get the latest football news on That's Football.
@@The_SnuggleDuck I always respect what Mark says but if Hendo is performing it doesn't matter where he plays. It's just an agenda against the Saudi league. A lot of players playing outside Europe are still better players than some players playing in the Premier League. Judge the guy on his performance not where he plays
SOUTHGATE IS RON GREENWOODS LOVE PUPPET CLUELESS AS A PLAYER AND HTF DID HE GET THE ENGLAND JOB ? ANSWER IS HE IS ANOTHER FA YES MAN WHO WEARS HIS GRANNIES SHREDDIES UNDER HIS SUIT HE DOESNT NEED TO WEAR A GIMP MASK CAUSE HE IS ONE 😅🏐🥅⚽💥☠️🤢😎🌈
As a Norwegian, I will never understand how England can let such an incompetent manager like Southgate ruin another world cup and euro tournament. You have a crazy crop of players and yet Maguire and Henderson are playing? Madness.
Who cares? He plays for Saudi now, and he sucks compared to many others on the bench. Guy is old. He chose money over the national team by going to Saudi. He should not play. @@mattvanemden7573
Remember when Southgate said Grealish needs to be playing in the Premier league and playing each week to be picked now he's picking two players every international break who isn't playing for his club team
@lucadegabriele6394 and on the topic of the past people keep using the past as ab excuse for why harry maguire should keep getting picked. 2018 was 5 almost 6 years ago (it's nearly 2024 already). What is maguire doing now that justifies him being picked for England?
You havent had nearly as much success under the previous managers than you've had with Southgate in recent years. Spoiled crybabies the english fans are, toxicity runs in your blood.
His tactics yesterday were appalling. Australia play narrow and pack the middle so england did the same. No pace or width. Just players passing it to each other in a packed midfield. Playing taa at right back when we all want him in the middle. Picking players who shouldnt be anywhere near the squad. He is honestly a terrible manager.
youre right on everything except taa's position, he was practically bumping in to henderson. i guess a year in qatar has made hendo a little rusty, or maybe hes losing that awareness in his old age
@@pingusbabyyy451 he should of been in the middle over Henderson. He played him at rb knowing he was going to drift into a already jam packed midfield. If we played someone else as right back that would have given us alot more width, what the game was crying out for. It was stupid tactics.
I get the impression Goldbridge is starting to transcend and just spitting straight facts. As a Liverpool supporter I have more in common with an enlightened supporter of any colours than a deluded idiot of my own kind that accepts the current status quo. Bravo Goldbridge - you earn my clicks 👏
@@dnny1440what the others said, but also he got rid of the established 'favourites' to bring in loads of young talent for the future, kinda the opposite
As a Belgian, this is giving me a deja-vu because Englands FA are making the same mistake as the Belgian FA did years ago with keeping Roberto Martinez. Belgium had its best group of players in decades being led by a mediocre manager.
These players are not even close to the 'golden generation' people need to stop this narrative that these are the greatest players in the world. Southgate has got us to a semi and a final and a quarter in which we were very unlucky. I never once saw this type of stuff towards sven who was a million times worse than Southgate
Gareth Southgate has mastered gas lighting to a tee. He knows exactly why people are booing and are getting frustrated at his squad selections, but he's managed to obtain one hell of an ego in the last few years. There are a number of players he should choose based on recent performances...Nick Pope, James Ward-Prowse, Solly March, Ben White to name a few. Pickford is lucky to still be a premier league goalkeeper and hasn't been good for a couple of seasons, yet he's the first name of the team sheet in competitive games, while you have 2 goalkeepers who helped get their teams into the top 4 last season, and one of them can't even get in the squad. It's crazy.
It’s like when Roy Keane said ‘does he do card tricks or something’. We can’t have hendo there if he’s there just to put an arm around Bellingham. If I was ward prowse I’d try to move to a different eligible nation
If Southgate carries on this Mates FC Protection Racket, the Glazers will hire him to take over from ten Hag. I'm imagining Mark's face if that happens
Absolute spot on - couldn't agree more. I don't believe we can win the Euros with Southgate in charge. He's scared and a bottler when it comes to taking risk.
He knows exactly why the players he picks get booed. He won't own his bad decisions and therefore claims not to understand. It's really embarrassing and disingenuous.
I genuinely don't care if Henderson or ward prowse or longstaff take that 4th midfield spot. We always find reasons to self capitulate and sabotage ourselves and this shouldn't be the reason yet
Well said. I've completely lost interest in international football when it comes to England, we've gone backwards. I laugh a bit inside when I see players like Ben White mocked for not making the England team - I actually think it's great, he gets a rest! Don't want him anywhere near the national team.
Hendo if stayed at Liverpool would be a squad player filling in when theres injuries! Thats the role he should be playing for England too . In friendlies against weeker opposition he should be trying out younger lions like Cole Palmer , Harvey Elliott. And i agree James Ward Prouse
The press see the football questions as superfluous, they've been hired to ask the latest woke questions and Southgate is there for his pr skills in that department.
White doesn't get selected because he walked away from England at the Qatar World Cup and went on holiday to Maritaus or the Maldives .He also has stated that he has little or no interest in football. ( Not his exact words) It's just a job to him. Not the sort of guy you want around an International football squad...
@@richardmell299 That's a possibility. There was an article published a few weeks after the World Cup which claimed that White wasnt showing a great deal of interest at training.
The guy is so far removed from the fans. Maguire, Henderson, Phillips, these are just a small element of the issues with him in charge. This is the real golden generation and he's failing.
He’s playing exhibition football and still gets picked, Henderson could announce he’s just playing in his back garden and Southgate would still pick him
Southgate is arrogant to think that he's not the problem. He needs to open his eyes and realise the finger is being pointed at him, not the players specifically.
As you say he effectively retired when he left for Saudi money, then thought people were stupid enough to accept his spin when he did that interview. He took the money, now he has to take the boos. People in football want everything with no comeback
As a Leicester fan, the Belgium manager chided our centreback Wout Faes for staying at Leicester when they got relegated, threatening his place in the Belgium national team by saying that he needs to make a move to a top tier league and play competitive football. Completely different mindset to Southgate. Mind you Faes has been starting for Belgium in the qualifiers but still, at least he said something!
Gareth is scared to drop players like Maguire and Henderson because he knows they understand their roles for England and support Gareth. If he chose new, exciting snd deserved players, theres a risk of it going wrong and falling onto Gareth's head.
Spot on, alas the biggest hinderance on the England team is the manager…would Southgate get a job in PL? Perhaps, one of the relegation candidates but not a top club. Would Pep, Klopp, Arteta, Ange or De Zerbi have won something with this team by now - I’d certainly have thought so
This team would thrive under A manager who knows how to handle some of the best forwards in the world. Imagine the attacking force we would be better than France in my opinion (take into account we have Kane Saka Foden Rashford Maddison Bellingham Ward Prowse Trippier those assets should be pumping sides like Australia)
And I thought playing for your country was based on meritocracy! How stupid of me!! 🤬 There seems to be a growing narrative from those in charge of the different parts of the game of blaming fans for everything. Just like politicians, those at the top of football are out of touch with the public!
The last three tournaments? We should've made the final in 2018 too, Croatia were there for the taking in the semi. Southgate was still manager that far back.
England have had so many great teams, all ruined by ‘yes men’ managers. I’ll always go back to why Brian Clough never managed them. They will never go for a quality manager who goes ‘against the grain’. Sick of it, now.
If I met Southgate I'd probably have him take a hearing test, he literally can't hear can he? He's deflecting the blame indeed, he's shifty, he's irresponsible. He doesn't seem to accept he can be wrong. A top manager will always take the blame. Pride and being self satisfied are the hallmarks of mediocrity in management - let alone in football management. Ole did it at United, Southgate is doing it right now. Glenn Hoddle was a pathetic manager but he had balls. Southgate hasn't. There's a reason why England failed in 2018, 2021 and 2022 and that's on Southgate. We have to stop backing him. There's no logic in picking Phillips, Maguire and Henderson. How can you possibly do that? There's no other choice? Really? JWP at least is one, Curtis Jones at Liverpool is another one, Angel Gomes too. So what the hell is he waiting for?
Sadly, Henderson will be in the squad at next years euros. He's not going to ditch him now, with only a couple of qualifiers left. He should have been told he was finished before the last round of qualifiers. Its players like Ward - Prowse and Sterling who will suffer. France or Portugal will win euros. Only see England getting to semis at most.
Sterling did something with racism that upset Gareth, not sure what. Funny how when hendo was at his best, Southgate didn't like to pick him, but since hendo linked up nicely with Bellingham, he's been southgates favourite
Gareth Southgate needs to go now, he’s bottled every important game he’s managed and is now attacking the fans for questioning his ludicrous decisions.
I think the FA should've binned him after our exit from the last World Cup because I have absolutely no doubt that a far better football coach would've been successful with this current group of phenomenally talented players that we have.
We have the same problem with the USMNT except the few fans who actually criticize are called toxic and told to shut up and everyone else either doesn’t care about the sport or are delusional
Did it ever cross your mind that he is getting booed for turning his back on all his morals? It’s nothing to do with ability, it’s because he was a ally of the LGBT community and he turned his back in them.
Southgate knows full well the gravitas of the situation, the context and the circumstances which have led to this point. To pretend he doesnt is just pathetically cowardly. With every further comment he just continues to dig the hole, and to see him squirming when asked if Henderson promoting the Saudi World Cup bid might have been a factor in the fan reaction was to witness a man being caught trying to have his cake and eat it.
Southgate literally wasted a big part of a very promising new young generation of England. Some times it feels like is actually making it worse on purpose! 🤦🏻♂️
Southgate had no success as a club manager. I was confused when he was appointed England boss. He's got some incredible players but no success. How has this even happened?
And yet a third striker in Nketiah is called up ahead of him. I don't see Nketiah going at PSG in the Champions League. Dan Burn should be in ahead of Maguire and Longstaff or JWP should be in over Henderson/Phillips. How does Southgate even know Phillips is any good? literally never plays.
