Following their recent World Cup loss at the hands of France, the Three Lions are still in shock.
You experience a wide range of emotions, and these competitions demand a tremendous amount of energy. I want to make the best choice for the squad, whatever that may be.”
Although it doesn’t seem like Southgate is convinced he will stay, if Sheringham has his way, the Three Lions manager will announce he won’t be leaving.
“It shouldn’t be his final tournament, in my opinion, and I don’t see any reason why it should be. The only way it could end, in my opinion, is if Southgate makes the decision to go on.
In any case, he did a fantastic job, so I hope this isn’t his final match,” the player, formerly of United remarked.
Sheringham continued by saying that he would like to see Southgate given the opportunity to create a dynasty akin to Ferguson’s, but that he will need time to do it.
He continued, “For however many years Sir Alex was in control of Manchester United, everything just rolled on.
Senior players retired; young players aged and passed on their wisdom and positive energy to the following generation, and so on.
If England continues to perform well in key tournaments, then long may that continue. That kind of stability simply makes things a lot simpler to stay at the top.”
