WHEN Alf Ramsey, the manager of Ipswich Town, accepted the job as the boss of the England team in 1962, he announced “England will win the World Cup”, a prophecy to which he stuck until they actually did four years later.
Under fire for both his on-field choices and off the pitch statements, Gareth Southgate remains surprisingly the most successful manager since Ramsey. An extra-time defeat in the semi-final against Croatia in the 2018 World Cup in Russia was followed by a third-place finish in the 2019 Nations League before they were vanquished by a heart-breaking penalty shootout loss to Italy in the Euro 2020 final.Sure, they have become accustomed to losing but when it comes to football, the English suspend their normal mental faculties.
His undivided loyalty on Harry Maguire, a fourth choice at Manchester United with only one start since August, and error-prone Eric Dier of Spurs has irked the fans who reacted angrily with Southgate’s decision to drop high-profile centreback candidates – AC Milan’s Fiyako Tomori, Joe Gomez of Liverpool and Aston Villa’s Tyrone Mings or even AS Roma’s Chris Smalling.
Recalling Leicester’s James Maddison after a three-year hiatus suggests Southgate was seduced by his statistics – 13 goals and nine assists throughout 2022 – a total bettered by only Harry Kane, Kevin De Bruyne and Son Heung-min in the Premier League.
