Despite leading England to their first World Cup semi-final since 1990 and back-to-back European Championship finals, Southgate has been criticised by some supporters for not getting the most out of a talented squad.
But Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink has launched a passionate defence of the former Middlesbrough manager and insisted being England manager is a thankless task.
Hasselbaink told Genting Casino: I don’t think there can be an argument made to say that Gareth Southgate didn’t do a fantastic job managing England. He brought everyone together and was completely responsible for generating a brilliant mood in the England camp between the players. The atmosphere, the camaraderie, the togetherness, you have to give credit to the manager for that.
I think the England job is a thankless task. Look at what Gareth Southgate achieved in the time he was managing England. When he took over, where were they? They were going nowhere. He took over and made an instant impact.
Now, when people think of England at a major tournament, they are always one of the favourites and Gareth is responsible for changing that narrative because of what he’s achieved with the team.
