I'm not entirely sure Carsley wants the job though?

I'm not sure Tuchel is a disaster but I expect him to do less well than Southgate

Just shows how amazing the football league can be in England. 2 seasons ago Luton were premier league and Wimbledon league 2 (4th tier for those that don't know). This season they play each other in the opening game in league 1.

Also great that Wimbledon are playing league 1 while MK dons are league 2.

I think Carsley knew the FA were pursuing someone else so when asked he downplayed wanting the job. Back to back U21 finals and 6 senior games coached, you got to think he wants the job post 20206. The FA only gave Tuchel a contract until the World Cup and I think that's because they want an Englishman for the home nations Euro 2028. They probably are hoping to get Howe but I doubt he would leave Newcastle next summer bar being sacked and that leaves Carsley.

Being at the City Ground for that Senegal game - it was so poor. Bizzare selections and bizzare tactics. All the games under Tuchel have been underwhelming.

I thought it was great when they were building Wembley doing England games around the country. England vs Mexico at Pride Park, great result.

I know it's all about money but I think they should bring it back.

Still, should have built the new national stadium in the midlands imo.

Tuchel just looks like that guy you see hanging around outside the local Spar.

Hammers doing nothing in the transfer market aside from wiping egg off their faces….cue Pvt.Frazier “ Doomed!”

Back to back U21 European winners - Carsley is a miracle worker.

Euro 2028 with the senior team please.

Carsley played for Ireland and there was an attempt to coax him into managing us but you’re right,he is destined for bigger things.

Just saw that too. How bloody awful.

I'm a Liverpool fan, so this feels like an absolute gut punch.
