Interim manager Lee Carsley says the role deserves a 'top coach', but will the FA pick him or a bigger name?
Transcript
00:00Obviously, I'm not part of the process, but it deserves a top coach.
00:12He's got all the credentials, from coaching-wise to the job he's done at Bournemouth and then, of course, Newcastle,
00:21which, that wasn't a lot of pressure.
00:24For me, he's the one to do it and he's got the right mentality, doesn't get, you know,
00:32I see some, the way Gareth handles things, I see Eddie in the same way.
00:40Brighton was fantastic, a brand of football that was so enjoyable to watch.
00:46Whether he's coached enough to then take on this job, that would be my worry.
00:55I tried to make it as clear as I could.
00:58Anytime we speak like this, you know, my remit was for three camps, the Nations League.
01:05The point I was trying to make is that it's one of the top jobs in the world.
01:10Obviously, I'm not part of the process, but it deserves a top coach.
01:17Top coach, top manager, has done it, some jobs better than others,
01:24but I can totally understand why he would be a name thrown in there.
01:29I don't see him as the man to take over.
01:36Do you feel like you've completed English football?
01:39I had that feeling last season, when we won Istanbul, I said,
01:43it's over, what I'm doing here, it's over, nothing left.
01:49If Pep managed this squad, this tournament,
01:53I think we would have won it, we would have probably won it pretty comfortably.
