Oh look, sure, we didn't have the very toughest route to the semis. And I'm not suggesting that as a consequence of getting there he should have a job for life, but there are a number of things that can go wrong en route, and have done to England in the past. I think this is the point where the benefit of the doubt ends though. We haven't kicked on and seem to be drifting. There have been a number of off-field issues that look to be creeping on-field. If I were the FA I'd be wanting to know what the vision is from here. How do we get from losing 0-1 at home to Denmark to winning the Euro's next year, because right now, I can't see it.
We were basically given a free ride to the semis and still repeatedly struggled. There is no evidence to suggest Southgate is a capable manager.
