The prospect of a former cycling team principal head-hunting the former Middlesbrough manager to take over at Man United sounds like something from Private Eye.
Gareth Southgate played for Aston Villa for six years and was a member of their last squad that chiselled a year onto their honours board. Still, when his image appeared on the large screen at Villa Park against Manchester United in February, he was booed.
Crystal Palace, another of Southgate’s former sides, are represented by four members in England’s European Championship squad. That number would likely dwindle if Southgate ever returned for a homecoming on Holmesdale Road. That was an uncharacteristic but timely barb from Erik ten Hag at Southgate last week. "England were playing very passive. I actually saw them moving backwards, they kept Serbia coming at them.. It's the vision of the manager."
By waiting ten minutes into the second half against Denmark to hook Alexander-Arnold, Southgate hoped to soften the blow. A more decisive and proactive manager less concerned about reputation would have done it at half-time. But Southgate is playing the populist.
