Top 10 best England managers as voted by fans, Sir Alf Ramsey only SECOND

  /  autty

ENGLAND fans voted the team's best ever manager... and it's not World Cup-winning legend Sir Alf Ramsey.

Ramsey is the only Three Lions boss to win a trophy in the national team's near 154-year history, having lifted the World Cup in 1966.

However, that doesn't seem to be enough for the Tottenham legend to stand out as the all-time best in the eyes of supporters.

According to a research conducted by Amazon Fire TV, fans believe current England boss Gareth Southgate is the greatest to ever grace the dugout.

The research was independently conducted across 2,000 UK residents on behalf of Amazon between April 8 and June 10.

Southgate is the fanbase's all-time favourite as he earned 37 per cent of the vote.

Ramsey came second with 28 per cent, which is still a far cry from the man who will lead the national team in Euro 2024.

Southgate revived England upon his arrival in 2016 and even made the fans fall back in love with the team after years of hurt.

The former defender led his country to fourth place in the 2018 World Cup, the quarter-finals of the 2022 World Cup and the final of Euro 2020.

And thanks to the ex-Middlesbrough boss' work, the Three Lions now pose among the favourites to win the European championship this summer in Germany.

Sir Bobby Robson, Terry Venables and Sven-Goran Eriksson complete the top five with 26, 18 and 15 per cent of the vote.

Robson led England to the quarter-finals of the 1986 World Cup and the semi-finals in 1990.

Venables made it to the semi-finals of Euro 1996 and Eriksson helped the Golden Generation advance to the quarter-finals of Euro 2004 as well as the 2002 and 2006 World Cup.

Kevin Keegan, Roy Hodgson, Glenn Hoddle, Fabio Capello and Graham Taylor complete the top 10.
