Former England defender Jamie Carragher has defended Gareth Southgate after the recent poor run under the Three Lions manager.
Southgate's team were relegated from the UEFA Nations League with a game to spare, having failed to score from open play in any of their first five matches. Some pride was restored against Germany at Wembley on Monday night, but a late Kai Havertz equaliser for the visitors ensured the Euro 2020 finalists remained winless.
Recent form has seen the pressure on England increase ahead of the World Cup in Qatar, where Southgate's team will face Iran, the United States and Wales in the group stage. However, Carragher - who played for his country at the 2006 and 2010 tournaments - has suggested some of the critics have short memories.
