Gareth Southgate though, so forward looking, unassuming, fiercely protective of his men, like a silent fucking fortress for good. Absolutely loving his style and strategy. He’s our man.

Gareth Southgate leading an England team to a penalty victory 20 years after he missed ‘that’ goal is an M Night Shyamalan movie waiting to happen. #ENGCOL

So happy for Gareth Southgate. I know there’s still a long way to go but he’s waited 22 years to get some penalty redemption. Onwards and upwards #England

I know I've had a beer and it's all a bit emotional but I honestly feel like, if he asked, I'd genuinely lend Gareth Southgate my drill.#ENGCOL

An episode of Doctor Who like that one where miserable Vincent van Gogh gets to find out he’s admired in the future but with Gareth Southgate in Euro ‘96.

Still, no-one’s getting carried away, right?
Its's the year 2022. England have just won their 2nd World Cup under Sir Gareth Southgate. Harry Kane has scored his 100th world cup goal and 3 lions has been number 1 in the charts for 4 years
