Southgate to Uniited?

This has been discussed a fair bit tbh. Anything is possible but I’d be very surprised. As SE85 said, it would put one hell of a nail in the coffin of INEOS even at this early stage.

He’s not down badly as England manager but it’s completely different. He has the whole country’s talent to pick from, he can drop players (not that he does all that much) as he isn’t paying out a contract for years at hundreds of thousands a week and it’s tournament football as opposed to league.

There’s no real justification for appointing him so I cannot see it. If he won a World Cup and a Euros on top then you could argue that said success trumps the differences between club and national management but sadly this is definitely not the case.

His so-so success with England is partly down to him, he is the manager after all but he’s had probably the best team/squad that England have had for probably 15-20 years so where he’s taken England should really be the minimum tbh.

It’s not even a discussion, it’s not going to happen. A few clickbait headlines that have reeled in the likes of the OP

Correct. And both were knighted!

Arise sir Gareth

What if he wins the Euros.

ETH won plenty at Ajax, yet he looks like a lost little lamb at United..

He'd be a safe pair of hands, would Safegate.

What if he wins the Euros.

Brexit football at United it is then

I’d be shocked if Southgate is our next manager. I wonder is Amorim now an option.

Dunno. England are favourites (maybe on par or just below France). Now normally that means exit i against the first decent team, but this team under southgate have come very close, who knows?

After he wins the Euros, he'll become the next PM.

Unfortunately, Utd will miss out.
