Wk: 14 That Was The Week That Was

With the Premier League on another break all eyes were on Southgate.
Whether he would get the England job or would the FA make him wait.
He seems to ooze in confidence and feels he's fulfilled all their aims,
Saying he's shown he can cope with leading, in high pressure games.
Not wishing to be disrespectful but playing against Slovakia and Malta
Are matches when you would hope any England team wouldn't falter.
Then he played Scotland, who are no longer the force that they once were.
So to use these 'high pressure games' as a benchmark is really not quite fair.
A better test would be against Spain, although it was a weakened side,
But the early pace of the England attack filled their supporters with pride.
Their mannequin challenge was good, but they looked 'dummies' at the end.
As at left back and the midfield stopped closing down when asked to defend.
But the first half display was encouraging and he set up the team well.
He really deserves to be given a chance but with the FA you never can tell.
Rooney was there, although not playing, but that didn't prove very handy.
But is it so wrong while you're having a day off drinking the odd 'shandy'?
He was not the only one there and agreed to give autographs and photos
His good nature has been taken advantage as some love to add to his woes.
