England's interim manager Lee Carsley is set to debut against the Republic of Ireland in the Nations League, a crucial test following Gareth Southgate's departure after the Euro 2024 final loss. Carsley has called up four uncapped players from the successful U21 squad, including Angel Gomes and Morgan Gibbs-White, indicating a forward-looking approach. Multiple sources praise Carsley's tactical acumen and man-management skills, with players like Gibbs-White and Rico Lewis expressing strong support for him to secure the role permanently. The upcoming matches against the Republic of Ireland and Finland are seen as winnable, and positive results could solidify Carsley's position as head coach. Carsley's relationship with many players from youth levels could be pivotal in his transition to senior team management.
