Surprised so many of you want a German in charge of the England team. You'll be voting for a Scotch person next.

Gone to Fenerbahce in the most combustible partnership you could wish for.

I'd love him as next England manager. Completely unsuitable and we'd go backwards pretty sharpish but it'd be a right laugh.

Ange may be miserable, but he lacks the bitterness that is a prerequisite to be even an honoury Scotch.

I voted for Pep, as I'd Like to see him as the new manager, but guaranteed it won't happen.

Ditto Klopp
Ditto Pochettino - although he might Like the job, he would become a pariah back in Argentina and won't take it on that basis.

Although he's the last person I want, I think it will be Fat Frank. Ticks all the (FA) boxes:

English,
Available,
Would take the job,
Would toe the line,
Media friendly,
'Some' of the players would relate to him.
Having only a small track record in management didn't stop them appointing Southgate.

I would prefer Carsley to Lampard personally. I believe Potter has unfinished business at League level and so would not take the job. Same for Howe.
