One of my great regrets is he didn\u2019t continue as England manager. He was a great character and was on to something \u2014 he would almost predict the outcome of games and change the system. I\u2019ve got no doubt this was the most technically gifted, tactically aware coach England have produced.<\/p>\n<p>Terry Venables will be remembered as an England fan. Nationally he will be remembered for bringing those great times at Euro 96. He was a joy to play for.<\/p>\n<p>Ange Postecoglou\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>If you ask about a person who embodies everything this football club (Tottenham) has always wanted to be, it\u2019s Terry. It wasn\u2019t just about the way he managed or coached, but the person he was. He influenced Australia too as manager of the national team; he almost got us to the (1998) World Cup. The biggest testament is that anyone I\u2019ve ever come across who has worked with him will say he is by far the best coach, manager and tactician they have come across.<\/p>\n<p>Gareth Southgate<\/p>\n<p>It was quickly evident playing for Terry Venables that he was an outstanding coach and manager. Tactically excellent, he had a wonderful manner, capable of handling everyone from the youngest player to the biggest star. He was open-minded, forward-thinking and created a brilliant environment with England that allowed his players to have one of the most memorable tournaments in England history. A brilliant man who made people feel special.<\/p>\n<p>Jamie Redknapp<\/p>\n<p>Every day working with you was an education. Euro 96 was one of the best times of my life, thank you for believing in me and giving me my debut for England. I owe you so much.<\/p>\n<p>David Beckham\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I met Terry in Barcelona and while training at Tottenham at the age of 9. He was one of our greatest England managers and loved by players and fans.<\/p>\n<p>Paul Gascoigne\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Such a sad day, cheers boss xxxx.<\/p>\n<p><span>Gary Lineker<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Devastated. The best, most innovative coach I had the privilege and pleasure of playing for. He was vibrant, charming, witty and a friend. He\u2019ll be hugely missed.<\/p>\n<p><span>Alan Shearer<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Extremely sad news. RIP Boss. I owe you so much. You were amazing.<\/p>\n<p>Stan Collymore\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Vivacious, funny, a super coach, a man who lived life to its fullest.<\/p>\n<p>Cliff Jones\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Sad to hear of the passing of team-mate and friend Terry Venables. A man of many talents.<\/p>\n<p>Frank Bruno\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I remember how he got the whole of England into believing we could win Euro 96. A sad, sad loss.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/i\/pix\/2017\/08\/02\/636x90_facebook_ad_sport.png\" width=\"636\" height=\"90\"><br \/>\nSource: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sport\/football\/article-12795937\/Premier-League-legend-Jamie-Carragher-Monday-Night-Football.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>REVEALED: A Premier League legend is set to join Jamie Carragher in the hot seat on Monday Night Football as [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":298980,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8 -
