England boss Gareth Southgate baffled by very random question in Euro 2024 press conference – but gives humble answer

ENGLAND manager Gareth Southgate appeared baffled by a bizarre question during a Euro 2024 press conference.

But, despite the random query, the Three Lions boss remained humble with his response.

Gareth Southgate gave a very humble answer to a strange question at a recent press conference

The strange incident began when a Moroccan journalist asked Southgate what advice he could give Morocco’s coach Walid Regragui.

Famously, the African side finished fourth at the World Cup in Qatar in 2022.

The question confused Southgate, whose England side only mustered a quarter-final appearance before they were knocked out by France.

He replied: “You got to the semi-final, didn’t you?”

“We didn’t. So, how can I give advice to you coach?”

England face Slovenia in their final group game on Tuesday – knowing a win will see them top the group.

However, the team have faced criticism for their flat performance against Denmark in the 1-1 draw.

According to the Daily Mail, England’s most experienced squad members have made an effort to ensure everyone remains calm and doesn’t panic after the points were shared.

In a post match interview, Southgate also said he believed England are missing Kalvin Phillips – who played an integral role in their run to the Euro 2020 final.

Trent Alexander-Arnold has been used in a central midfield role alongside Declan Rice.

However, that tactical experiment didn’t appear to work against the Danes.

He said: “We know it is an experiment – we don’t have a natural replacement for Kalvin Phillips – but we are trying some different things,” Southgate revealed.

“At the moment, we are not flowing as we would like, that’s for sure.”

Meanwhile, former England boss Glenn Hoddle has urged Southgate to walk away from his post – backing Pep Guardiola as his replacement.
