    He decided to play for Ireland. His choice. He should manage them.

    Think the change has came at the right time but Southgates tenure has shown that the u21 head coach to first team head coach progression works. Same with Argentina, same with Spain.

    Declan Rice made 3 appearances for Ireland. Should he be banished from the England setup?

    Carsley is a great coach, I think he could be a really good head coach for England, not wanting him because he represented a different country is a bit pathetic to be honest.

    Rice didn't play a full international, so not relevant.

    Still represented Ireland in 3 first team games. Definitely relevant.

    The problem with Carsley now is that this anthem nonsense will hang over his head for as long as he's in charge. If we lose it'll be because he doesn't care for the nation or something like that

    What annoyed me was the bullshit excuse he came out with to explain why he won't sing it - something like "I'm too focused on the game, too distracting to sing etc"

    Just be honest and say "Look, I was born in England, but I represented Ireland in my career. It wouldn't be right for me to sign either anthem, so I won't". People would surely respect that more

    Have to say england played with a press almost as good as sunderland are. Carsley must have been watching de bris.
