Gareth Southgate is considering his future as England coach after a third shot at a major tournament ended in disappointment.
Southgate is under contract until December 2024, but after the 2-1 loss to France in the“Whenever I’ve finished these tournaments I’ve needed time to make the correct decision because emotionally you go through so many different feelings and the energy that it takes through these tournaments is enormous,” Southgate said after the match at Al Bayt Stadium. “I want to make the right decision, whatever that is for the team, for England, the FA.

Back then, England was in crisis after a humiliating loss to Iceland in that year's European Championship. Sam Allardyce took over but lasted just one game and 67 days in charge after being filmed by undercover journalists offering advice on how to sidestep an outlawed player transfer practice and trying to cash in on his job with speaking engagements.England made it to the semifinals of the World Cup in 2018 and lost on penalties to Italy at Euro 2020.
“They could not have given any more. But, of course, tonight we have come up short. And we felt we could come here to win the tournament,” he said Saturday. “Tonight is probably the best, I think, we’ve played against a major nation across the period I’ve been in charge. In the end, the scoreline is all that matters, so that’s very hard to take.”He has also been criticized for being too cautious in the biggest games.
