Sir Gareth Southgate 'not missing' being England manager after knighthood
Former England manager Sir Gareth Southgate does not miss managing the Three Lions and the weight of the job, stepping down last summer after England's Euro 2024 final loss to Spain. Despite guiding England to two European Championship finals, including a fourth-place finish in the 2018 World Cup, Southgate says he does not miss being in charge. Southgate received a knighthood for his services to English football and believes it's important to give the current team space and support from the sidelines.
