Gareth SouthGate<\/strong><\/p>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n
Gareth Southgate has questioned the \u201cunusual environment\u201d around the England team after they were booed off against Slovenia despite topping Group C, and urged supporters to back the team \u201chowever they feel towards me.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Three Lions mustered just four shots on target in another underwhelming performance at these finals, but still left Cologne as group winners thanks to Denmark playing out their own stalemate with Serbia.<\/p>\n
When Southgate went to applaud the England fans after the end of the game, some reacted positively but others booed and a few beer cups were thrown in his direction.<\/p>\n
Southgate\u2019s current contract with the Football Association expires in December, and a decision will be taken on his future after the finals. Some fans have questioned whether he is still the right man to lead England after eight years in charge, and Southgate said of the full-time reaction: \u201cI understand it. I\u2019m not going to back away from it. The most important thing here is that the supporters stay with the team.<\/p>\n
\u201cI understand the narrative towards me and that\u2019s better for the team than it being towards them. But it is creating an unusual environment to operate in. I\u2019ve not seen any team qualify and receive similar.<\/p>\n
\u201cI recognise that when you have moments at the end of the game, I\u2019m asking the players to be fearless, I\u2019m not going to back down from going over and thanking the fans who were brilliant during the game.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey might feel differently towards me. But for me, we only will succeed if we are together. That energy is crucial for the team and it is so important they stay with the team, however they feel towards me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Asked what had changed about the environment around the team, Southgate replied: \u201cI think probably expectation. We\u2019ve made England over the last six or seven years fun again. I think it has been enjoyable for the players. We\u2019ve got to be very, very careful that it stays that way.\u201d<\/p>\n
