Many England fans would rather they move on from Gareth Southgate after the Euros, so why would Man United move for him?
Sir Alex Ferguson was so opposed to Gareth Southgate's first managerial appointment he said he was unqualified. Southgate is nearly 20 years older but still unqualified to occupy the seat in the home dugout at Old Trafford.
"Managers and coaches should be completely qualified if we want to raise the standards of our game," Ferguson said. A month later, Ferguson branded Southgate "naive" after he accused Cristiano Ronaldo of diving in United's 2-1 win at Boro.READ MORE: ‘Is that for me?’ Even Klopp sees the funny side of United’s managerial situation
James Morrison made clearer contact with Ronaldo than Woodgate in his attempt to amputate him. He was expelled and Ferguson's assistant, the usually placid Carlos Queiroz, had to be restrained from confronting Middlesbrough staff. Southgate's autobiography was ghost written by David Walsh, the Sunday Times chief sports writer who brought down Lance Armstrong. Walsh told this correspondent Southgate was one of two sports figures who vocally supported his crusade.
"In this case, and contrary to the testimony of David Brailsford in front of the Committee, we believe that drugs were being used by Team Sky, within the WADA rules, to enhance the performance of riders, and not just to treat medical need." Walsh, such a close confidant of Southgate's he revealed he would be staying on as England manager, "doesn't care for" Brailsford. A penny for Southgate's thoughts.
Southgate has reconnected the team with the fanbase, bridged divisions to cultivate a harmonious environment, guided England to a third World Cup semi-final and a first European Championship final. Despite his naysayers, he is a national treasure worthy of a National Theatre production. Southgate has ample options to assemble the most gifted squad at the summer's European Championship.
