In a recent Richard Dimbleby Lecture, former England football manager Gareth Southgate addressed the concerning trends among young men, including excessive gaming, gambling, and pornography consumption. Drawing from his personal experience after missing a crucial penalty at Euro 1996, Southgate highlighted the importance of resilience and learning from failure. He criticized the negative impact of online influencers, who often promote toxic ideals of masculinity and success. Southgate advocates for more supportive role models in traditional settings like sports and education to guide young men towards healthier choices.
"That pain still haunts me today, and I guess it always will."
"These are callous, manipulative and toxic influencers, whose sole drive is for their own gain."
