Gareth Southgate is expected to step down as England's manager after Euro 2024, having led the team since 2016 but without securing a major tournament victory. Southgate has faced criticism for tactical decisions, especially in positioning and formations, which some argue have hindered England's performance in past tournaments. Despite these challenges, Southgate believes the team is showing improvement, highlighting young talents like Cole Palmer and Kobbie Mainoo who have made positive impacts. England topped Group C after a 0-0 draw with Slovenia, and Southgate remains optimistic about the squad's potential moving forward.
