Surely the FA have been tapping up candidates long before Southgate inevitably quit after the Euros. Maybe they have and we don’t know about it. |

The job will go to Pep. He’s Catalonian so won’t want Spain. Given the England squad now it’s his best chance to be a hero - we’re in the box seat to win something and he’ll be an all time legend if he’s the gaffer. Mark my words, England are biding their time until they can secure Pep at the end of the domestic season. |

Pep Guardiola is considering renewing his contract at Manchester City for another 12 months having also been sounded out to become the next England manager.
Guardiola has received approaches from three national teams in recent months, including from the Football Association, with his current deal at City due to run out at the end of this season. Understandably the FA and other countries wanted to ascertain his intentions.
Guardiola is interested in one day coaching a national team and, it is understood, that money will not be an important factor in his decision. The 53-year-old accepts that he, or any national coach, would not receive the same level of salary as is commanded at a top European club. He would take the job for what it is.
This might cause excitement that he can be lured by England, given the expectation that hiring him would be too expensive, but a note of caution was being sounded as to whether he would be seriously interested at present.
Even so Guardiola has not ruled out formally speaking to the FA about succeeding Gareth Southgate and England would be a strong option should he decide to leave club football. He also likes the country and its squad of players and wants to eventually coach at a World Cup.
But neither will he be held to a deadline as he considers his future. It is said Guardiola could decide next week, next month or next year on his course of action.
It also remains entirely possible that he will leave City when his contract ends and take another sabbatical – as he did when he quit Barcelona in 2012 and moved to New York.
However, sources have tentatively suggested that the most likely scenario, at present, is that he signs another deal at City – albeit for just one more year. City would like him to sign for longer but would be delighted he if renews.
That would take Guardiola up to 10 years – a complete decade – at City having joined in 2016 and he likes the idea of completing that period of time at the club.
The last contract extension Guardiola agreed was in November 2022, which took him up to 2025, but if he stays at City it is expected to be for the shorter-term deal.
The FA have sounded out a number of candidates as technical director John McDermott continues to update his short-list for the next permanent manager. The governing body has made it clear that it would not limit itself to English coaches and Guardiola would certainly be top of their wishlist should the Catalan give them any encouragement.
The FA will argue it would have been negligent of them, given Guardiola’s contractual situation and given he has made it known he wants to coach a national side at some stage in his career, not to make an approach.
It is understood that foreign managers, including the German former Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel – who is interested – and Tottenham Hotspur’s Australian head coach Ange Postecoglou have been on the FA’s shortlist along with Newcastle United’s Eddie Howe and Graham Potter, who is available having left Chelsea in April last year.
The next England manager will not, however, be Lee Carsley who has taken the role on an interim basis for the Nations League campaign.
Telegraph Sport exclusively reported on Saturday that sources in and around the England set-up are convinced Carsley does not want the role on a permanent basis once the programme of six Nations League group games is completed next month. It is now believed he is not under consideration.

Based on tonight's leaks to the England press pack, Pep does look a long shot, and it all seems to be tied to his whims.
And, apart from the leak that it definitely won't be Carsley, it all seems as clear as mud

Can't see Pep taking the job. He should take the England job if he’s got ambition left. He won’t manage Spain because he’s a Catalonian - and he’s been quoted saying it’s not for him. He’s conquered club football. His best chance of being an all time legend is wirh england - with the players we have now and the recent near misses, he can come in and be a hero. It would be absolute immortality that he won’t get anywhere else. And if we do get him and we still win nothing, then at least we did everything we could. |

The Football Association (FA) have made an informal approach to see if Pep Guardiola is interested in becoming England manager with the Manchester City manager remaining the top target for the role.
The Catalan has not yet given any response, as he still has to make up his mind on whether he will actually leave Manchester City in the summer.
Although there had initially been doubt over whether they could afford him, the fact the 2026 World Cup is mostly in the United States means it is expected to be a commercial bonanza.
The current expectation is that he will do one more year at City, with the club hierarchy currently hopeful this will be the case.
Yet there is also a belief within the FA that Guardiola might fancy a change of pace after nine years at Manchester City, with the World Cup and the idea of ending England’s 60 years without a trophy appealing to his sense of romance. Even though the 53-year-old has yet to decide on his future, the situation at City may also change the context.
It is naturally felt he is likelier to leave if the club is found guilty in their Premier League hearing, and particularly if they are severely punished.
The FA are also understood to have spoken to Thomas Tuchel, out of work after leaving Bayern Munich in the summer. Graham Potter and Eddie Howe are also under consideration.

WOOO WOOO WOOO📢 (that's the sound of the unpopular opinion klaxon.)
One thing is, whoever the manager is, as talented as our squad is, it's hugely massively unlikely we'll win the 2026 World Cup. The circumstances surrounding it mean for us to compete for the gold bastard would require a bizarre sequence of good fortune. All teams need some things to fall in their favour but we can't expect so much to fall our way. Sweltering temperatures at the end of a punishing domestic season in an enlarged tournament make it too much of an uphill struggle to realistically expect to challenge.
More likely is the possibility of becoming European Champions in 2028. The new manager needs a mandate to be building to 2028.

And we still couldn't win anything then. We would have done with a better manager in charge. |

I always wondered how the likes of him, Wenger, Mourinho and other managers who had unlimited budgets to spend on top class players would have faired managing Carlisle Utd or Oxford Utd. But if I’m going to find out would rather it be Guardiola. |
