      Gareth Southgate a FAVOURITE for Manchester United job after stepping down as England boss

      by

      GARETH SOUTHGATE’S odds of becoming the next Manchester United manager have been slashed following his England resignation.Southgate, 53, has stepped down from his role at the Three Lions following Sunday’s heartbreaking Euro 2024 final defeat to Spain.Gareth Southgate is a favourite for Man Utd job after stepping down as England bossOwner Sir Jim Ratcliffe is a huge admirer of Southgate’sErik ten Hag recently penned a one-year extensionIt brings to an end his eight-year tenure where he managed 102 England games. His pragmatic approach was heavily criticised throughout the tournament, with many fans feeling he was holding back the best set of players in Germany.However, that style took England to a second successive European Championship final, adding to the World Cup semi final run in his first tournament in charge back in 2018.He’d already been linked with a new job in punditry before this morning’s announcement, though it now looks like staying in management could be a real possibility.That’s because bookmakers William Hill have slashed the odds of him being the next Manchester United manager – where he’s now a JOINT-FAVOURITE alongside another unemployed boss in Mauricio Pochettino.Next Manchester United manager oddsWilliam Hill pricesGareth Southgate 2/1Mauricio Pochettino 2/1Roberto De Zerbi 5/1Kieran McKenna 6/1Thomas Frank 7/1Thomas Tuchel 9/1Ruud van Nistelrooy 10/1It has to be said, United aren’t currently looking for a new manager, having recently handed Erik ten Hag a year’s extension to keep him at the club until 2026.That didn’t look likely for much of the campaign, with the FA Cup success over rivals Manchester City a huge factor in the hierarchy sticking by the Dutchman.But Southgate was reportedly the number one choice of Sir Jim Ratcliffe to be the United boss during his takeover process, with new technical director Jason Wilcox also a huge admirer.Dan Ashworth – the club’s new Sporting Director – was reported to have recently had dinner with Southgate, with the pair having previously worked together at the FA.Southgate’s potential appointment was said to be universally welcome by those in the club, including the United players – with the likes of Harry Maguire, Luke Shaw, Kobbie Mainoo and Marcus Rashford having all worked under him.That could put huge pressure on Ten Hag in the early stages of the season, having already overseen a 1-0 pre-season defeat to Rosenborg this week.Southgate joins Poch at the top of the betting market at 2/1, with Roberto De Zerbi trailing at 5/1 and Kieran McKenna a 6/1 shot.Remember to gamble responsiblyA responsible gambler is someone who:Establishes time and monetary limits before playingOnly gambles with money they can afford to loseNever chase their lossesDoesn’t gamble if they’re upset, angry, or depressedGamcare – www.gamcare.org.ukGamble Aware – www.gambleaware.orgFind our detailed guide on responsible gambling practices here.For help with a gambling problem, call the National Gambling Helpline on 0808 8020 133 or go to www.gamstop.co.uk More

Below SunSport gives its verdict on how they should deal with the Red Devils flops this summer. Andre Onana – STAY: After a dodgy start at Old Trafford Onana has proven to be one of the more reliable members of the squad this season despite being peppered with shots constantly.Altay Bayindir – GO: Reports in February suggested Bayindir was unhappy with his bit part role at Man Utd amid interest from Turkish giants Galatasaray. If profit can be made on a sale then it should be done.Tom Heaton – STAY: Veteran goalkeeper Heaton, 38, is a reliable back-up and is on a relatively small wage at the club. So long as he is happy it makes sense to keep him.Aaron Wan-Bissaka – GO: Wan-Bissaka, 26, has never managed to make the right-back position his own. With his contract up in 2025 it makes sense to cash in now.Diogo Dalot – STAY: Dalot, 26, has been one of Man Utd’s most consistent performers this season.Raphael Varane – GO: If it wasn’t for his injury record there would be a strong shout to keep Varane, but costs need to be cut to allow the squad to be freshened up.Harry Maguire – GO: Maguire has showed he has the right character to be at Man Utd but overall ability and desired profile are another matter, with Maguire too slow to play in a high line defence.Lisandro Martinez – STAY: Martinez, 26, is second to none in terms of build up play. He needs a long-term defensive partner on the right side and to cut out the injuries which have plagued him this season.Jonny Evans – GO: Veteran campaigner Evans could easily be on the stay list if he was only going to be a bit part player. But he has shown his advanced years at times this season.Victor Lindelof – GO:  Lindelof, 29, has been reliable if not unremarkable in his Man Utd career. He has one year left on his contract so should be moved on if a decent transfer fee can be got for him.Willy Kambwala – STAY: He should be given the opportunity to mature for a few years behind a senior CB pairing before stepping into the first team as a starter or being moved on.Luke Shaw – GO: One of the Premier League’s best left-backs when fit, Shaw has been a good servant when available. But alas that has been his Achilles heel once again this season.Tyrell Malacia – STAY: Malacia, 24, was decent enough to earn some merit in his first season at Man Utd before injury ended his season and inadvertently led to his second season being a write off.Sofyan Amrabat – GO: Amrabat, 27, looked like a world beater at the Qatar World Cup with Morocco. But he’s had an underwhelming season in England and his loan spell will almost certainly not be made permanent.Casemiro – GO: An alarming physical decline has seen him turn from key star to burden. If a club is willing to buy the 32-year-old – who has two more years on his contract – then United should snatch their hand off.Christian Eriksen – GO: Eriksen proved a useful asset and Ineos should look to bring in another player with similar traits, but frankly his legs have looked gone towards the end of this season.Kobbie Mainoo – STAY: The first of the so-called untouchables, Mainoo has been a rare glimmer of hope in the Red Devils midfield this season.Mason Mount – STAY: Mount can be given the benefit of the doubt until summer 2025 at least after a debut season riddled with injury.Scott McTominay – STAY: McTominay, 27, has proven himself to be a brilliant plan B off the bench this season, and that is exactly why Ineos should look to keep him.Bruno Fernandes – STAY: Man Utd’s best player since his arrival just over four years ago, Fernandes, 29, remains second-to-none when it comes to creating chances while his tenacity boosts those around him.Antony – GO: There’s a case to argue that Antony may be the worst pound-for-pound signing in Premier League history. Despite some memorable moments he simply isn’t Man Utd quality.Anthony Martial – GO: Ultimately Martial needs to be let go when his deal runs out this summer after an appalling injury record of late.Marcus Rashford – STAY: As easy as it would be to say Rashford should leave the club this summer, it is difficult to look at the market and find many available players capable of scoring 30 goals a season.Alejandro Garnacho – STAY: Another third of the untouchables trio, Garnacho has made the right-wing his own since coming into it. He’s a raw talent but has shown he has the quality to improve.Rasmus Hojlund – STAY: A slow burner in his first Man Utd season, the 21-year-old has often been starved of supply which has led to him being unable to get the goals his movement and unselfish play often merits.Amad Diallo – STAY: In the fleeting moments he has been on the pitch for Man Utd this season, Diallo has looked dangerous and exciting. He should be given a chance to flourish with some proper chances in the first team across a whole season. More
