Thats some shock, I thought he was one of their most consistant players this season.

I'd say Sunderland will be next option. He will suit keano to the ground imo.

Looks like it was more Carsleys decision than Everton, he had an option to renew and decided to move back to them midlands to be closer to his family. That would rule out the Sunderland option I would have thought.

Carsley and Everton part company
Everton have announced midfielder Lee Carsley will leave the club.
The Republic of Ireland international is out of contract and has decided not to renew his deal at Goodison Park.
The 34-year-old, who has been at Everton for six years, will search for a club in the East Midlands in order to move closer to his family.
"Lee feels he now needs to be closer to his family and everyone at the club fully appreciates that," said Everton manager David Moyes.
Carsley, who signed from Coventry City for £1.9m in 2002, has been a regular fixture for Everton this season, missing just five of their 54 matches all season.
"I'd like to thank Lee Carsley for his years at Everton. He has undoubtedly been a big part in our success in the last few seasons," added Moyes.
Carsley has had offers from Derby, West Brom and also Birmingham.

He has a daughter with Down Syndrome I think so it makes sense that he would want to be closer to his family at this stage of his career.
I think West Brom would be a good signing for both club and player, i'd say he has another year of prem football in him...

At his age he will be looking for a two year deal, it is unlikely he would get that at a ppremiership club. Birmingham have offered him a two year deal and as it will mean he will also be able to live at home with his family then it is a no brainier for him.

He wont be near West Brom I don't think as Mowbry will not go for that sort of player. He likes good passers of the ball. I think Birmingham or maybe Stoke would be an option or you never know even Villa.

Fair play to him. He still has a role with Ireland and I was always impressed with his coming back.

His options are really Birmingham, Derby and West Brom. For obvious reasons id like him to move to West Brom, but we got to remember that he is getting on now

Perhaps you should focus more on the fact that Everton wanted to re-sign him, rather than his advancing years...

Third post. I was wondering how long it'd take for someone to reckon he should go to Sunderland. :rolleyes:
He could do a job for someone like Stoke. Physical side, near to Liverpool.
What age is he now?

come on it was a joke/subtle dig at Keane's desire to sign as many players with an Irish passport! I think Keane should stay clear of him.

Apologies, just been announced on RTE that he has signed for Birmingham.

Nice humourous tribute article here which suggests that the "Carsley Role" executed by the man himself could have restored greater glory to Real Madrid. It has a grain of truth about it :)

Everton would have kept him if they could. Moyes said
""I’d like to thank Lee Carsley for his years at Everton Football Club. He has undoubtedly been a big part in our success in the last few seasons.
"Lee feels he now needs to be closer to his family and everyone at the club fully appreciates that.
"He’s been a fantastic player on and off the field and he goes with my best wishes and we wish him all the best in the future."

Coventry gets a little greener.

Wow, hopefully he can take his chance and offer himself up for a permanent role. His columns in the Times the past few months have shown he has a really astute reading of the game - hopefully that can translate to management.

Wouldn't be surprised if Kilbane is involved as well, he's doing his coaching badges at the moment
Carley takes the reigns as caretaker boss for Coventry for a second time following Robins controversial departure...

That's a great opportunity fair play to him. Hopefully he gives up the England gig!maybe he will bring mark Kennedy in as assistant from their man city days

I get the feeling Kennedy will make a great coach. Seems almost grimly pragmatic in interviews (maybe not a bad thing at all) but was brilliantly technical as a player.

If things go pear shaped for Ireland over the next month (and they surely will), then what about Carsley for the top job?
He would bring a wealth of youth coaching knowledge to the post and with a view to developing the next generation of Irish players, it might not be a bad thing>
