«I still want to see us play with this control“, declared the former England U21 coach, appointed interim coach at the beginning of August after the departure of Gary Southgate in mid-July the day after the Euro where England again failed in the final.
«I think it’s important that we’re enjoyable to watch play.“, stressed the new coach, whose team showed more in one evening in Ireland than during the whole of the last Euro.
«When fans come to watch England play at home, they expect to see good football and attacking football, with goalscoring chances and pace.” he added.
«It was a great moment of pride for me to be on the bench that day (against Ireland) and I hope my players have another great night on Tuesday.” said Carsley, who wants to silence some of the criticism after the former Irish international’s decision not to sing “God Save the King” in Dublin.
Lee Carsley was tasked with preparing for the matches against Ireland and Finland when he was appointed, but the English FA said his interim role could be extended.
