Gareth Southgate

It's impossible to please everybody all of the time, but you just have to believe that you're making decisions for the right reasons. ”

No England international is a practice match. Every time you wear this shirt, it is of importance for you, the country, and the supporters. ”

The quality of our academy system is very high, as good as anything in the world. Around the country, lots of people in youth development are keen to get together and find a solution to that 17-to-21 age bracket and how we get those players playing. ”

Ultimately, playing at international level, at all age groups, is good for a player's development, and that is good for clubs, too. ”

I nearly missed the births of both of my children, and both were around international weeks. ”

You give everything you have, build friendships within your team - in international football, you give everything for your country and play in a way that you hope connects with the fans. ”

I played international football for England, and in many games, we were technically inferior to the opposition. ”

In England, we've spent a bit of time being lost as to what our modern identity is. ”

Good teams, whatever the circumstances or the atmosphere or the pitch, find a way of playing. ”

If you are not constantly improving and learning, then you are going to be stuck and not progress. ”
