Lee Carsley insists he is 'up for' the England manager's position and says as far as he’s concerned, the role is no longer the 'impossible job'. In the wake of Gareth Southgate's resignation, Carsley has been put in interim charge for the three rounds of autumn international matches, but he has never admitted publicly that he wants the role long-term.
'It definitely couldn't have gone any better in terms of the way the players responded to some of the concepts that we tried to put in place, the way that the new players have gelled with the older ones. It's been an all-round positive camp.' Asked whether the experience had been an eye-opener, he replied: 'No, not really. I think I've been lucky enough to see the job quite up close, over the last couple of years with me doing the U21s.
