Gareth Southgate won’t be a pundit during the World Cup – here’s why

Gareth Southgate World Cup England

Gareth Southgate , who recently departed as England manager after an eight-year tenure, has chosen not to take on a television punditry role for the current World Cup.
Southgate's decision stems from a desire to avoid any potential disruption or misinterpretation of his comments regarding the England squad, stating he wanted to 'keep out of the way'.
This marks Southgate's first World Cup since leaving the England setup, having previously attended seven tournaments in various capacities including player, broadcaster, scout, and manager.
He was succeeded by Thomas Tuchel, who is leading the England side into their Group L opener against Croatia.
Southgate conveyed a message of good luck to the England team via Instagram, expressing strong belief that the squad is 'ready to win' the tournament.
