On July 20, the British newspaper The Guardian published a column by Kelly Simmons, in which she wrote, “Southgate’s successor will benefit from his predecessor’s contributions to English football.”
The article stated, “While England’s football infrastructure requires significant funding, the current football system is relatively healthy, and of course, all great systems need great leaders. Under the leadership of Southgate and Wiegman, English football is striving for continued healthy development.”
Speaking of the England men’s team, who recently finished as runners-up in the European Championship, the article wrote, “The transformation of the England men’s team has been quite significant. As a values-driven leader, Southgate is a shining example of how to lead with compassion and integrity.”
In addition, the author wrote, “What impressed me was that when the FA held a staff meeting, everyone wanted to hear what Southgate and Wiegman had to say. It’s fair to say they have created a culture and environment that has fostered the development of the England teams.”
