I’m mystified as to how little criticism Southgate gets versus the outright abuse Robson, Taylor and Venables got.
Gareth Wokegate
Media darling. This was the man that tried to make a political statement out of a penalty shoot out
@@robertoc2485 In one.
RIP to all..the shameful abuse of Graham Taylor by the media was dreadful.
What? Southgate is getting constant stick...
How refreshing to hear an ex footballer telling it like it is. He should have been a pundit for the Euros but the BBC and ITV would rather tick boxes and ruin my experience in watching the analysis before and after the game.
I can’t imagine how sad you must be to get worked up over not getting your analysis from a white man.
He is not a yes man and tells it as it is so he has no chance! Plus he went against the blm vax crap
@@OneEyedWheeler - you are equally sad, for concentrating solely on race. All rather boring, not just one eyed, but blinkered at that.
@@OneEyedWheeler you’re assuming be identifies as white
@@spms3018 no I’m not. The OP is upset over equality and diversity measures being taken. Their own gender or race is irrelevant to the discussion.
Watching England is like watching Norwich atm,we go one up and immediately sit deep and invite teams onto us.Southgate is a defender at heart and it shows in his tactics.
Its exactly like watching west ham
And he’s a serial loser.
To be fair, sitting on a goal or 2 has been a England criticism for as long as I can remember, and I'm going back a long way.
@gurnstein the thing is we've got the players to hurt teams and are weaker at the back relatively speaking.
@@jamiewilson5679
Fair enough
Matt is probably the most balanced analyst on the Euros.
That’s why he was axed. The big companies want yes men
@@russellthechemist8291 Le Tissier is fucking thick.
Tiss is always honest and gives a good perspective on football.
He’s looking fitter now than when he was playing
Honest? A lot of pundits talk garbage but I don't think any of them are being dishonest.
He’s also a hater
Matt, you're completely right! Southgate is playing for percentages Similar to snooker players who play percentages in snooker with defence in mind first. Southgate is making sure he has as many players as possible behind the ball while relying on our attackers to do their thing, whether it's snooker or football it's boring to watch.
I don't agree entirely. Southgate understands international football, but is overthinking. The 2 mistakes we made were first in the Serbia game, we did one attack where Saka beat his man crossed and Bellingham scored. If we had done that many times crosses in the box we would have been 3 or 4 goals up by 36 minutes and an easy match. Instead we did all this passing back and sideways. Then for the group stages everyone would have been more content???
The second mistake was he instructed players not to do hopeful crosses into the box, but then corrected himself by saying when we did that we scored, but then Slovakia was tired???? Southgate is so close to doing really well, we have the blue print just needs to be implemented. Just it seems Southgate doesn't know how close we are to being really good???? Small margins can make, big difference!
@@bernardm2528 I don't think Southgate is that sophisticated. The fact he hasn't beaten any of the big football nations when it matters proves his limitations. And the matter of those defeats tells me he is very defence minded.
I think the way we played in the second half against our last opponent and scored in injury time was not planned. I think the team was forced to play that way out of desperation. The realisation of going out or near tournament death provoked the survival instincts in our players to play more naturally. The urgency was visible to see that was absent in all our games previously.
It's a good positive. It proves we will be hard to beat or at least have the ability to fight.
@@HDsharp Let's hope for better results as we go along? Otherwise we go out.
Matt is a legend, and more thoughtful than most too. Hope to see him back asap
Matt is loyal person bro plus he was born in ci
This is a Real English Gentle man. I always Loved this man ,what an amazingly gifted Football player and a man of the highest integrity . Best wishes from rainy Ireland.
"highest integrity" You're kidding right ?
@@paulpeterson5147do you need me to get the "job" too mate to make yours work better?

@@David-rv6dn He played for England smart ass.
@@paulpeterson5147 . No I'm not Fucking Kidding . Listen to Jug ears so and the rest of thr yes men.
Southgate never won sod all. He’s an FA yes man like most of the previous managers.
Yeah true, all those trophies Le Tissier won.
Agreed.
@@nw5117 What did this statement have to do with Le Tissier?
He should have won a trophy for that penalty miss that lost us the Euros!
@@jakhaughton1800 I don't think anyone could describe Terry Venables as an FA yes man.
I would rather us, go all out attack and go for it.
Why are we so negative.
Matt is a hero and I will always admire him for standing strong and showing backbone during those dark days 🙏
Any team mirrors the manager's personality. England mirror Southgate's, and as such no surprise they are so defensive and dull. I will be staggered if we actually won this thing.
Southgate first and foremost is frightening he is always thinking what can go wrong. Sitting back against Italy 4 years ago after going 1 up? What has changed? Losing to Iceland and with ten minutes to go and Southgate is telling them to calm down 😂😂. Any decent manager would be telling them push forward or you are dropped. Southgate is an idiot when it comes to tactics.
Just a good bloke isn’t he? An Englishman, a proper Englishman (which is probably why he’s not on Sky).
What with a name like Le Tissier?
Amazing interview this mate little gem on youtube will be recommending it to my old man
Well said Matt speaking truthfully as always.❤
Tiss a legend. Sky don't like out spoken guys who speaks the truth
No one does. If you have an opinion. Re- shape it and mske it pallatable
He was a talented loser, and now he’s not talented any more.
Matt is a legend. I feel for the next England manager. No doubt they'll get drawn against France in the groups or even qualifiers and decent teams in the knockouts. Southgate is incredibly lucky. Look at who he's played. It's crazy. Whenever we play a top team we lose. Maybe we'll hit form now.
"Might get lucky and get to a final again"
Never were truer words spoken.
Inflexibility in managers drives me crazy. If something isn't working, try something else. Don't keep picking the same players with the same tactics and expect anything to change. England fans can tolerate defeats,it's the nature of sport,but they are sick of seeing spineless,boring lacklustre displays.
someone asked Southgate if the glass was half full or half empty. He said we should change the glass for a plastic one in case it breaks.
Quality
Nah, he'd be too concerned about the effect on the environment to use a plastic one. He'd appease the woke left by using a recycled paper cup.
👏 👏 👏 Love it!
@@intrepidbun5002 🥱
@@graemeyetts3465 you’re kidding right. A clumsy, laboured stuttering joke that wasn’t funny and hardly original.
182 goals, 51 assists, 49 yellow cards and 1 red in 481 games in all competitions. 8 games for country not really picked as he was considered a "luxury" player. Absolute BS.
funny how all the 'luxury' players where never picked for England and the national team never getting anywhere in the competitions.
He's right, as usual. and i come from Pompey.
We have the best players in the world right now. Gareth is not the right manager.
Rice has been terrible on the ball. Too safe!! Lets see Wharton please.
I've never rated him
We just seem frightened to press forward which would indicate a lack of confidence from our back line. No creativity, imagination or focus. Can't see us progressing passed the knock outs..
Past not passed. One full stop at the end of the third sentence.
No affiliates. No vested interests. No one to please. Matthew Le Tissier was a very good player, but he is an even greater man.
Isn’t he apart of some cult these days
@@bluesEvanskro Pythagoreanism was a philosophy and a cult based on the beliefs of the famous mathematician Pythagoras. The Pythagoreans worshiped numbers, believed in reincarnation, and practiced vegetarianism.
I just googled cult and copy pasted it in order to look clever.
@@bluesEvanskro He's 'apart' of it as in he's not in it, so you're right in that respect.
@@bluesEvanskro yes the truth
MLT is always a great listen and doesn't talk BS like most pundits...Straight talking people like MLT have my respect defo 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Matt, do us a favour and keep telling it as it is. Too many pundits tow the company line and are only interested in protecting their own self interests rather than pushing the necessary buttons to spark the right conversations.
Southgate has no ability as a manager at all but when it comes to arranging who England are drawn against he is an absolute genius.Unfortunately you will eventually come up against a good team and he has never beaten such a team.
Results,results,results.....
Yeah, John Major was my choice as well.
More peas dear
@@williamcunningham3315 Perfect accompaniment to the perfect evening. You’re showing your age there!
As someone who played to quite a high level in football many years ago I have a pretty good idea where the problem lies. The creativity is sucked out of you at a young age to fit into the style the English clubs want to play at. Let the ball do the work was always drilled into me at the training grounds.
We have top class players who are really performing admirably for their clubs. They do so because they playing with guys from other countries who are providing the creativity needed for our guys to perform at their highest level.
When it comes to the England squad we haven't got the players to provide the creativity and flair because that's not what they've been trained to do. So, it becomes dull and lacklustre and painful to watch. This has been going on for many years. The only player that defied this was Gascoigne and they reached the semi finals of the world cup only to go out on penalties to the eventual winners.
I don't believe anything will change in the near future so, being English, I don't think I will see any euro or world cups in my life time. England will probably crash out in the quarter finals in this year's euros.
Should have his own show.
Fresh air
Well apart from his extreme political views and oh yeah his massive crackpot conspiracy theories about everything, yeah give the strange bloke a massive platform then. Just because he was a brilliant footballer does not mean we want to hear his views on the world.

Start Anthony Gordon & Cole Palmer, Let's have a better performance.
Great insight and interview. Pity he didn't mention Mainoo as one of the fringe players at that stage that should have been called up. Probably doesn't watch many United games.
England 🏴 play more back passes than forward, the other night I seen a great 30 yard back pass.
Enjoy listening to Matt, but I'm from Northern Ireland. we need all the help we can with selection. Tiny population. 😂👌👍🙏
Bollox .. Southgate isn’t deluded just a crap coach .. The delusional are the FA for appointing this muppet in the first place
Some very thoughtful comments here, he talks a lot of sense. It's a pity he wasn't playing in Euro 1996 SF v Germany, England may have won that penalty shootout! Anyway, the bottom line is, if England continue playing the way they are, they ain't going to win this tournament. I really hope tomorrow is not another Iceland 2016.
I look at penalties subjectively! There’s a difference between missing a pen’ and the keeper saving it!
Given quality of players only England managers in conversation as worse than Southgate would be Greenwood, Taylor, and Hodgson...Taylor likely would have qualified w fit Shearer and Gazza and there no Carlton Palmer's in this squad
Great player, and a very interesting chap..
Us Guernseymen tell it how it is, no bullshit from us. 🇬🇬
the most unvaccinated pundit around.
We probably missed out on a great manager in Le Tissier.
That could have been a great career. I bet he has some regrets about that.
Austria Italy are decent teams and will give us trouble
Italy?
@@panscrank Yes Italy, they were still in it YESTERDAY when he posted it
I don't think you can call England a team!!
We don't make the pitch wide enough and when we do it's like passing to a brick wall. We need ball carriers on the wings like Eze, Gordan and Bowen. Definitely not Saka. He's too lightweight and seemingly terrified at taking on the opposition left back.
rice played 3 times for ireland then joined england is this what your talking about grelish played 6 times under 21 for ireland is that ok
Disagree about Rice. Very disappointing he's been imho.
That was a very strange pick.
@@CountMackulahe just meant it as being irreplaceable. like Gareth said, no replacement for kalvin Phillips 😂 so if rice got injured there was no one to cone in.
I believe this was before mainoo cemented his place in the team (Gallagher started in the first knockout game I believe)
but I also think rice is way too overhyped
This whole tournament has made me realise what a boring game international football is. All sides seem scared of taking risks.
T20 cricket and Rugby (both codes) knock spots off it as a spectator sport.
Great interview.....
Gareth looks both ways when he walks across his living room. Look at our team. A managers wet dream ! Unleash the tallent.
If the team is not performing by moving Harry Bellingham around won’t make any difference their not as good as they say and I hate saying that we need a massive improvement now
I'd rather lose early than win playing like this.
John Major 😂 first one to come to my mind too.
Top guy
Gareth Southgate is a complete joke as a head coach, he’s had zero success even at club football level!
He’s also a serious criminal because he’s stealing money from the FA, to the tune of £2,4 million per year!
Every one of these comments by Matt, who is one of the most talented English footballers in the last 40 years, is 100% on point!
5 million a year
Tiss is a breath of fresh air. Straightforward, honest and no spin or wokeness.
Southgate was lucky in 2018 and 2021 with the teams that England got in the draw.
If they scrape past Slovakia (which is far from a given)
they will face Switzerland who are playing very well indeed.
This tournament is well going Southgate!
Klopp would have this group of players buzzing
I think your being very generous to Southgate. Woke managers produce woke teams.
WE'RE IN THE SEMIS !!
semi is the right word for it. all the way to the final and being a bit limp
What a footballer
Right about covid....right about southgate.
Get him on tv.
Start your own show on youtube tiss !
I hate Southgate, he probably wears 3 nodders in case 2 split
Think we will see a better England when we play free flowing attacking teams.🏴🏴
This has aged well
England manager is an impossible job. I wonder if he'd give Southgate credit if they win it.. If they lose, he'll certainly stick the knife in.
His idea of not being eligible to play unless you or your parents were born in the country is daft. John Barnes wouldn't be able to play for us. Not would Le Saux or Le Tiss himself.
It shocking indictment of our coaching system that if Southgate leaves the job, we'd be looking at Potter or Howe. The last Englishman to lead a club team to success was Howard Wilkinson.
Must be gut wrenching, seeing the shite nowadays. This Legend is/was overlooked, football is fixed. X
If southgate was in charge of an f1 team the instructions would be, don’t break the gearbox, don’t push the engine too hard, don’t spin off, don’t break down. Imagine telling that to Ayrton Senna, Seve Ballesteros, George Best, Diego Maradona, Michael Jordan….
Don't think Seve Ballesteros would know very much about gearboxes
Right enjoyed that
the best team were sitting on the bench.
And how good a manager is Matt ?
Le Tiss should've played for Scotland.
The problem is left back - the question should have been - what happens if Trips gets injured - who would you replace him with? That’s not the only problem - playing three players out of their usual position - playing two right footed players on the left - not allowing our full backs to attack ………… and yet pundits question the performance of our forwards - they are as hopeless as Southgate
Joe Gomez
@@Mark-99999 he has played left back for Liverpool but I am not sure if he did last season did he? - he is another right footed player so he can do the defensive job but offers little threat going forwards - Southgate’s refusal to play Gordon upfront makes the whole team unbalanced - Southgate just isn’t up to the job - full stop - never has been and never will be
When you look at these players week in week out they have flair and like to take a player on, so what has changed when they come to England? The manager and the tactics, plain and simple.
Deluded is not a word Matt should be using
Yep. Pretty much agree with everything he said, except about Rice. He has been Shite so far. Totally agree to bout the manager shud be from same country.
Unemployed conspiracy theorist calls mildly underperforming manager deluded.
Absolute legend is le tissier. I don’t care if he played for Southampton he was a footballing genius. I bet Matt loves it since he left woke sky sports
He sounds Tissed.
So what about Declan Rice??? Played for Ireland 3 games so you don’t mind it going the other way around???
Soccor saturday is shite now, le tiss my fave player ever😊
Clearly the next England manager should be Matt! Or any other ex player that's been throwing Southgate under the bus throughout his tenure. I mean if you listen to what they're saying, any one of them could walk England to their first trophy in 60 years having achieved absolutely nothing as managers themselves 😂
You mean just like Southgate ?
@@alland1241 Southgate has been a manager and involved with the England youth team and has managed at international level for 8 years, getting to a final and a semi final... Remind what Le Tiss has done again?

I know this comment is after the semi final but Go on Southgate lad, make the water talking freak hater eat his words!!!!!
This is why tiss was taken off soccer Saturday..tells it how it is...brilliant 👏 gazzgooner
That is not the reason he was taken off the TV..
He had been repeatedly warned about spreading false information on a subject he knows nothing about and potentially putting peoples health at risk..
If he'd of just stuck to the football he would of been fine but unfortunately he was too far down the rabbit hole of idiocracy that he couldn't find his way out..
our attacking palyers r playing back...
Matt Rice has been crap in the last two games, getting 2 and 3 out of ten from the media, no wonder he has at go at the critics.
Le Tissier calling someone deluded.......... who would have thought 🤣🤣🤣
What did he say that was delusional?
To the question, 'what is England's fundamental problem,' one could go even more fundamental than Tiss' reply and say - it's the FA. The FA are the reason managers are appointed on political grounds (i.e. dull conformists) over and above footballing ability.
The reason Southgate won't change is that he can't. What you see is the extent of his ability. The playing talent, as usual, is squandered at the hands of stunted coaching ability. They're primed with pedantic monotony where they should be unleashed to play with freedom. FA policy is the root cause - Southgate was hardly likely to turn down the job, was he. Aside from international honours, it's a part-time position which has furnished him with a very comfortable retirement.
I could go further and forward a personal character appraisal toward refuting his purported honesty as reported by a cosseting media but I don't want to dwell on it too much. Only to conclude I'd rather we had an international manager who genuinely was that honest. All the great managers have a knack of getting succinctly to the point - it's why they're able to turn a game during the brief intermission while the players are having a slice of orange and a ciggy. Southgate is so uptight and absorbed with PR profiling, he has the knack of beating around the bush like an apprehensive topiarist.
I'd at least like to be able to augment a vague interest in international football with a modest fiscal interest in goals or corners. The first corner of the game vs. Slovenia came on the stroke of half-time. Woo-bleedin'-hoo.
First half-decent team we meet who express their ability with any semblance of freedom will have us on toast.
