Gareth Southgate’s successor needs to be a forward-thinker.
Gareth Southgate’s decision to resign as England manager did not come as a surprise. Although defeat to Spain in the final of the European Championships is still very raw, it is important to remember the result will have had little to no impact on his final decision.

Bellingham will continue to prove doubters wrong
Nobody builds up footballers only to knock them down again like English fans and media.

England’s comeback highlighted why they could still win Euro 2024
Nothing about England’s performance against Slovakia was befitting of tournament favourites. Indeed, the 120 minutes of Sunday’s round of 16 match was a slog for Gareth Southgate’s team. Until Jude Bellingham’s stoppage time equaliser, they were heading home from Euro 2024.
