It’s right to point that out, but it’s not the whole story.

This period has also coincided with massive investment in home grown talent by the premier league, and.a total revamp of the England youth system. We’ve been through a period where we won youth football world cups at several ages.

So yes, England are much better. And yes, Gareth deserves a share of the praise. But England have great depth and some genuinely world class players now. Gareth has benefited hugely from that, he hasn’t made these results using a shot squad of limited players.
