It appears that Lee Carsley will be taking over for the upcoming England fixtures.

I expect the FA will see this as a trial period, and if he does well, he might get the job. I'm delighted to see the back of Southgate, but this doesn't seem a particularly exciting appointment at all. It would be typical of the FA to take the easy option.
That said, I have heard some positive things in terms of his coaching style, but I don't know much about him.
Assuming he wanted the job, I do like Pochettino. The optics of an Argentinian managing the England team are not lost on me, but he's a great guy and a good manager.
Howe is reasonably good but won't want to leave Newcastle. Potter... might be ok but disappeared after the disaster at Chelsea.
