Carsley: England ‘very good at times’ against Ireland
England interim manager Lee Carsley ahead of the Uefa Nations League against Ireland, Dublin, September 7, 2024

The Euro 2024 finalists are starting anew after Gareth Southgate called time on his eight-year reign days after July’s heartbreaking defeat to Spain in the Berlin showpiece.

The FA has temporarily turned to England Under-21s boss Carsley, but a promising Nations League campaign could well see that promotion become permanent.
