By Ewan Murray Dubbed the 'impossible job', managing England has always been one of the trickiest gigs in football. That's something that Gareth Southgate can attest to. The England gaffer has led the nation to some of their greatest moments at major tournaments, even reaching the semi-final of the 2018 World Cup and the final of Euro 2020 several years later, but that has not made him immune to criticism. With one of the most talented England squads ever seen at his disposal, there are those suggesting that the Three Lions should be doing even better on the big stage. For many, Southgate's ta...

By Ewan Murray Managers don't come more loyal than Gareth Southgate. Despite having picked a daring Euro 2024 squad, the England boss has tended to select his tried and tested favourites over past years. Club performances haven't always impacted his thinking when it came time to announce his squad ahead of an international break, with his faith in individuals undeterred by dips in form. Sometimes Southgate's unwillingness to ditch his most trusted allies has been his downfall, with positive displays in an England shirt having outweighed anything else. Here are the ten most used players by Gare...

By Katie Catherall Jude Bellingham defended Trent Alexander-Arnold after his England teammate was criticised for his performance in their opening Euro 2024 fixture against Serbia. The Three Lions kicked off their tournament on Sunday night with a 1-0 win thanks to Bellingham's header in the first half. While the Real Madrid star was impressive further forward, Alexander-Arnold partnered Declan Rice deeper in midfield but the Liverpool star was hit by a flood of criticism from fans and television pundits. However, Bellingham, speaking to ITV Sport after the game, dismissed the negativity and in...

By Tom Gott Erik ten Hag has challenged Gareth Southgate's claims that Luke Shaw will be fit enough to feature for England in the Euro 2024 group stage. A calf injury has sidelined Shaw since February but the Manchester United left-back was on the bench for England's opener against Serbia after Southgate insisted he was available to make his long-awaited return. Ten Hag, however, called for more caution from England. Having previously admitted he was unsure whether Shaw would be fit at any point this summer, the United boss now believes Shaw will not return until the knockout stages of the tou...

By James Cormack A new-look England backline and Serbia's defensive woes may have pointed towards a goal-fest in Gelsenkirchen on Sunday night, but the Group C contest was instead decided by a single moment. While the discourse surrounding England's victory has largely focussed upon a dreary second-half and what the Three Lions weren't able to do against a physical Serbia outfit, Jude Bellingham's celebration for his 13th-minute winner offered some lighter-hearted relief in terms of talking points. Bellingham got England's Euro 2024 off to a flyer when he crashed the Serbia box and emphaticall...

By Tom Gott England manager Gareth Southgate finds himself under immense pressure to make the most of all the attacking talents available to him, and frustration from fans has only grown after the Three Lions' ugly 1-0 win over Serbia on Sunday. With a front four of Harry Kane, Phil Foden, Jude Bellingham and Bukayo Saka - four of the most-valuable assets in world football - England could only score once against Serbia and instead spent a large part of the game hanging on in defence. By the time the final whistle arrived, the game had seen just 11 shots on goal. Not since records began in 1980...

By Katie Catherall Jude Bellingham became the youngest European player to feature at three international major tournaments during England's Euro 2024 opener, surpassing Cristiano Ronaldo and previous record-holder Michael Owen. Bellingham made headlines on Sunday after scoring England's only goal in their opening group game to guarantee a win over Serbia. But it wasn't just his goalscoring efforts that stood Bellingham out from the rest as the 20-year-old also managed to break Owen's record to become the youngest player to feature at three tournaments. Bellingham first arrived on the internati...

By Tom Gott Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has admitted that Marcus Rashford was "lacking" this season ahead of his omission from the England squad for Euro 2024. Rashford was the star of Ten Hag's debut campaign, bagging 30 goals and a further ten assists and signing an enormous new contract as a reward. However, he suffered a major downturn in form last season, finding the back of the net just eight times in all competitions. That slump saw Rashford left out of Gareth Southgate's England squad alongside Manchester City winger Jack Grealish, and Ten Hag admitted he was not surprised t...

By Tom Gott Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag questioned Gareth Southgate's approach to matches after England's nervy 1-0 win over Serbia on Sunday. England were good value for the lead that Jude Bellingham's first-half goal provided but lost their way in the second half and ended up hanging on, with Southgate waiting until the 70th minute to make any changes to the team. Ten Hag was a pundit on Dutch TV for the game and took the opportunity to question Southgate, who had been touted as a leading contender to replace him at United before his continuation at Old Trafford was confirmed. "It...

By James Cormack England got the job done in Gelsenkirchen on Sunday night as they started their Euro 2024 campaign with a 1-0 victory over a physical Serbia side. Expectations for this English team refused to be tempered despite suffering a pre-tournament 1-0 defeat to Iceland, and the opening 30 minutes at the Veltins-Arena depicted a side capable of enjoying another deep run in Germany this summer. However, the remaining hour wasn't for the purists. Stodgy, underwhelming performances have been ingrained in the English psyche, only it seems that Gareth Southgate's Three Lions continue to pre...
