I can understand why people might go for Eddie Howe but, for me, he is still relatively un-proven. If you're looking for managers, like Howe, who've achieved a lot with relatively little, as RTID says, Mark Warburton should also be on the list. Sean Dyche (first suggested by Escape Goat) is also a good shout.

Tin hat time... Sam Allardyce.... English, great attention to detail and you wouldn't want to take it easy on the pitch if he were your manager. The football might not be the most attractive but, there again, the Iceland match didn't rate very highly on the entertainment scale!

I would happily take Dyche or Allardyce and might just prefer the latter's experience.

Just watching an interview with Klinsmann,seems like he'd jump at the chance to do it.After watching Jones take us over to Australia and batter the Aussies,wouldn't it be great watching a German manager leading us to a World Cup final victory over the Germans ! If Heineken did World Cup finals lol .

Maybe not, it seems Gareth Southgate isn't interested even as a caretaker...

Good for him. The only reason to take this job is ego (and we all know football managers have no shortage of that) and the cash. Hodgson was paid £3.5m a year, a million more than Jurgen Low, manager of the World Champions. Seems tailor made for Sam Allardyce for me, he loves a fat wallet in his pocket and thinks he can manage players that no one else can. Plus his tactics are simple enough for the thickest players to understand.

Top class football in England is geared towards the Premier League - and its success rather than the national team. Germany has a good balance, but until the PL starts helping the FA develop long term plans - we're doomed to repeat this.

It speaks volumes that Southgate is willing to turn it down (and 3.5 million a year). They should spend the money on training coaches (A and B level) at grassroots - at least we can then produce a better standard of footballer.

Klinnsman is the sensible choice - but I'd agree with Stan on Allardyce, simple football for simple people might be the way to go

I think Southgate has seen enough of the crap the managers get and is happy with the U21s, perhaps
if there was some joined up thinking from the FA instead of looking for names we might develop a seamless structure that prepares players properly for tournaments whilst giving coaches a structure to work in that doesn't end in tears every few years...
 
If we go for Klinnsman, chances are our penalty taking and scoring will improve.
Eddie Howe - he saved Bournemouth from going out of the league and was their youngest manager before he left for Burnley and then returned. for me - he is still too young.
Sean Dyche / Big Sam would me my choices as I doubt they would take too much from the pampered overpaid ponces that thought when we were going to Iceland meant a walk round a food store. None of those players (except maybe Vardy and Rashford) should be picked for a while. And don't for any reason throw anything for Hart to catch......would like to pass on my flu bug but I reckon he would drop that
