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.
 
Southgate barely managed a decent performance, just results, so if Carsley gets the team playing entertaining football give the guy a shot.

If they genuinely believe him to be the best option I am happy to give him a chance, but it's the FA...
