What’s Hot and What’s Not as England throw away two-goal lead against Spain

HOT – Gareth Southgate

Despite throwing away a two-goal lead, Gareth Southgate is the heavy favourite to land the job permanently, if he wants it.

His four games in charge have brought two wins and two draws and, although the first three performances weren’t hugely convincing, England picked up seven points from nine in qualification, and didn’t concede a goal in any of those three matches.

However, his side were much improved against Spain last night, and played with the sort of pace and energy that England need to play with to grow as a team.

It’d be a massive shock not to see Southgate in charge when England travel to Germany for their next international in March 2017.
