‘Stop rewarding failure’ – Joey Barton slams England boss Gareth Southgate and demands he RESIGN after World Cup exit

Published on December 15, 2022 at 02:50 PM

JOEY BARTON has urged Gareth Southgate to RESIGN after England’s World Cup exit and told the FA to “stop rewarding failure”;.

Southgate has led the Three Lions in the last three major tournaments and they’ve overcome some significant hurdles during his six-year reign.

England were knocked out of the World Cup in the quarter-finals by France
Joey Barton thinks that Southgate should resign as England manager

At the 2018 World Cup, Southgate guided England to their first semi-final for 28 years, although they lost to Croatia in extra-time.

They went one better at Euro 2020 with the 52-year-old becoming just the second England manager EVER to reach a major final.

Unfortunately, they were beaten on penalties by Italy despite leading the game heading into the final quarter.

Southgate was then unable to end 56-years of hurt in Qatar as the Three Lions were knocked out by France in the quarter-finals.

Regardless, he’s already won three MORE tournament matches than any other England boss before, with his six knockout wins the same number they managed between 1966-2018.

Despite being England’s most successful manager since Sir Alf Ramsey though, he hasn’t done enough to convince Barton.

That’s because the former Manchester City midfielder reckons Southgate should have already stepped down.

He said on Twitter: “Can’t believe Southgate hasn’t resigned yet.
