Gareth Southgate

There's no doubt about that.

but no what a life experience to be able to do that hold that position for the length of time i had and the following day after you told the fa and you were no longer the england manager how did that feel a lot calmer the morning after the final we land back in um birmingham

We're obviously charter flight.

My family is still flying back with all the other families.

So they're going to be home after us.

So I get back to home and a friend of ours had looked after the dog.

We've got a little cockapoo, by the way.

I don't normally like to be seen out in the hours of daylight with him.

I prefer a lab or something.

Teddy.

Teddy.

He's 12 now.

So I open the door and there's Ted.

I mean, he doesn't care about the final, does he?

He doesn't care who's played left back, he's there.

It's unconditional.

I've got all my bags from six weeks and I go upstairs, I take my bags upstairs and he's thrown up all over the bedroom floor.

So now bear in mind the Spanish manager is currently in Madrid on an open top bar with a trophy.

So if you want the contrast between the margins of winning and losing, there you are in a nutshell.

Yeah, yeah.
