There is 'something not right' with Gareth Southgate, Ian Wright claims... as the ITV pundit admits he 'feels' for the England boss amid his side's struggles at Euro 2024

Ian Wright has insisted there 'is something not right' with England manager Gareth Southgate.

Southgate and his England side are preparing for their Euro 2024 last 16 tie against Slovakia on Sunday afternoon, having topped their group following their first three matches of the tournament.

All has not been plain sailing, however. A win over Serbia was followed up by draws against Denmark and Slovenia, with fans left frustrated by performances from the Three lions in the two games.

After the Slovenia game, fans booed the team off the pitch in Cologne ans threw plastic missiles in the direction of Southgate, who remained defiant and applauded the fans insdie the ground.

It's poissible his spell as England boss is coming to and end, however, and Wright has now had his say on his recent behaviours.

'I think so,' he said on the latest episode of Stick to Football, brought to you by Sky Bet, when asked if Southgate had a feeling from the fans and media that his time as England manager is up. 'You can see something about him in his interviews.

'When you look at Gareth before this tournament, you look at him and his demeanour, he was very confident. When he's speaking to people and looking at reporters, there is an authority to what he's saying, and he has confidence in what he's saying.

'Now you're hearing him say, "There's something quite not right", and he does this thing at the moment where he's speaking and will look down and you can see that he's contemplating something else – there is something not right with him and I really feel for him because I think he's taken on so much with what he's had to do as England manager and change so many different things culturally and politically.'
