Following the conclusion of the European Championship, English football legend Terry conducted a TV interview in front of his trophy cabinet, a scene that infuriated British fans, particularly after England’s recent final loss. Some even speculated that Terry had purchased replica trophies.
Although Terry never secured any accolades for the English national team, during his tenure at Chelsea, he accumulated numerous honors with the Blues. The sight of Terry giving an interview post-European Cup final sparked outrage among fans.
Terry was interviewed in front of his own trophy display, but against the backdrop of England failing to clinch the title, fans were unrelenting, “He’s being interviewed in front of his trophies? What a jerk! Did he buy those replicas himself?”
In the interview, Terry expressed his wish for Southgate to remain with the England team, “I’m pleased with everything Southgate has done for the players. I don’t think his tactics were wrong, and he’s built a very united squad.”
After the tournament, Southgate declined to comment on his future, “This isn’t the time to discuss such matters. I understand the public’s thoughts, but losing the final is incredibly painful.”
Despite the loss in the European Cup final, England players, including Bellingham, strongly supported Southgate.
