TBR View: New contract for Southgate is great news for Tottenham

A ཧnew contract for Southgate with England is great news for anyone associated with Tottenham.

The f👍igure has never been good enough to take over at north London after underwhelming with the Three Lions.

Despite reaching the semi-finals, there were question marks over the nation’s performances at the 2018 World Cup.♋ Nine ꦓof the 12 goals scored came from , an incredible reliance on dead-ball situations.

The situation hasn’t improved much ꦰthis summer with England scoring just twice in their three games so far.

There seems to be a lack༒ of free-flowing attacking football, a key part of what Le🥀vy is looking for in a preferred candidate.

Meanwhile, the manager’s team selections have left♎ a lot to de desiredꦛ. The likes of Jack Grealish and Jadon Sancho have rarely featured with the latter playing just six minutes so far.

This comes despite the Borussia Dortmund man combining 🐎for more goals and ass𒉰ists than any other England winger last season.

It was sܫtunning Southgat๊e was even linked with the Lilywhites job in the first place. However, news of a new contract with the national side will be music to the ears of Spurs and their fans.
