Roy Keane has claimed Gareth Southgate will not be able to fix England's 'embarrassing' performances at Euro 2024, but claims the Three Lions should not be written off.
England booked their place in the quarter-finals on Sunday after a dramatic 2-1 win over Slovakia.
Jude Bellingham's injury time overhead kick prevented the Three Lions from crashing out to an unfancied Slovakian team.
A header from Harry Kane in the opening minutes of extra time proved enough to take England into the last eight, where Southgate's side will face Switzerland.
The victory came despite another underwhelming performance from England, who had entered the tournament as one of the favourites.
Keane branded the performances in Germany as 'embarrassing', but admitted England cannot be written off as they continue to find a way to earn results.
'It's embarrassing at the moment but that's what happens sometimes,' said Keane.
'It's about surviving, it's about staying in the competition. They're staying in the fight. England keep swinging.
'After yesterday [Sunday] I wouldn't be writing England off, far from it.'
Keane's fellow pundit and ex-Man United team-mate Gary Neville insisted Southgate needs to make changes to his team to prevent England from crashing out in the latter stages of the tournament.
'The coaching staff have got to get a message into the players somehow. They're passing too slowly, it's too methodical, it's too rigid, they're living right on the edge,' Neville said.
'Is it realistic that we're going to keep getting over the line if we don't change anything. We have to play quicker.'
Keane insisted Southgate will not be able to fix the issues in his England side over the reminder of the tournament.
The former Man United captain stressed, however, that Southgate's side have some momentum that could be enough for them to keep winning matches at Euro 2024.
'If you think Gareth and his staff are going to fix that in the next two weeks you're living in cuckoo land,' Keane said.
'Move onto the next game. They've got some momentum.
'Football's about winning at the top level.'
