FA implored to ‘go after Pep’ after Lee Carsley plays down England credentials

Roy Keane has sent Lee Carsley a simple message to the FA. When it comes to finding a permanent replacement for Gareth Southgate: just get Pep.

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola is out of contract at the end of the season and is yet to shed any light on what his future plans https://ufabet999.app are beyond that. After speaking previously of his desire to take a team World Cup, many fans are dreaming that the Catalan might tempt to take the job.

Ian Wright gave his reaction from the studio, saying: “I think he’s being very honest and when you look at him I believe him: he doesn’t Lee Carsley think he’s ready. Like he says, he knows his remit, he’s got the six games, and I admire what he’s doing.

“What’s good about it is he’s getting the opportunity to have a go at  this. Which is very very privileged to do. It’s a privilege to get that chance.”

Asked about who might get the job if not Carsley – and presented with Eddie Howe, Graham Potter or Thomas Tuchel as potential options – Keane said: “The most important thing is getting the right man.

“The names you’ve mentioned there, I’m sure they’ve all got a chance. But the FA have to go for the best guy, whatever. Whether finances will play a part.

“If Lee obviously rules himself out and he’s not interest. That seems to be the noises coming out – the FA had better get busy and get the right man.”
