Now Keys has joined the bandwagon as he went as far as claiming that the Football Association should consider sacking the coach with immediate effect and bring in former Premier League manager Harry Redknapp on a short-term basis ahead of their first knockout tie.
WHAT RICHARD KEYS SAID
Speaking on , Keys said: "I’m so depressed, I thought that was so miserable once again tonight. I’m at a point where if I were able to make that decision, yes, I probably would because we are going nowhere double quick. We’re here to win it, that, what I’ve seen tonight, that’s not winning the next game, let alone the tournament.
"Harry Redknapp’s sat in Dubai tonight, give him a call. [Jurgen] Klopp won’t do it but Harry, you think he wouldn’t be on a plane tomorrow morning?"
