Professional, organised, absolutely committed.
No national team full of talented players needs coaching in the traditional sense. They know what they're doing. They're exceptional footballers. It's why they're in the England squad.
It's 90% man management these days. Southgate has that to a tee. With Capello, for example, it was 90% coaching...and he coached the life out of them. Big Sam would have taken them backwards. Gareth has the balance right. Credit to Steve Round as well.
