“It’d be fair to say there’s a bit of relief,” Carsley said. “We spoke about not only gaining promotion from the Nations League but to potentially increase the pool of players Thomas has got to choose from. “A lot of them have done themselves a lot of good in terms of enhancing their reputation of their ability to play in the England senior team and gaining a cap is no mean feat. Our CEO Mark Bullingham has paid tribute to Lee Carsley, whose spell as interim head coach of the senior @England men's team ended with today's 5-0 win over the Republic of Ireland. I’m looking forward to meeting him now in the next few weeks.”Carsley sidestepped the question of whether he would like to return to manage the England senior team again one day, instead focusing on the here and now.
