Overview
- Southgate writes that Conor Coady introduced the Werewolf/Traitors-style game at the 2022 World Cup, with all 26 players taking part as “Wolves and Villagers.”
- He says the craze carried into later camps, including Euro 2024, where wider staff joined and participants slid notes under hotel doors during late-night games.
- Southgate recounts Marc Guéhi telling him he struggled with the traitor role because lying made him uncomfortable given his family background.
- Celebrity visitors occasionally joined, with Southgate noting that Robbie Williams took part during a visit to the team in Qatar.
- The former manager concludes the informal game did more for team bonding than any formal exercise, a revelation shared as the BBC show’s celebrity edition reaches its finale.
