    The long and short of it is that England has twice ran into the wall of Mediterranean football. The Foggy Island football that England once
    played is thankfully gone. The English team is much more Continental
    now. But in some ways England still plays old fashioned football. Maybe Southgate should be sacked after all.

    He was never going to be sacked. In fact, it seems like the FA
    wanted him to stay!
