I am pretty torn on Carsely. He seems a great coach but hard to gauge too much from his success with the England U21s as they have probably got the best pool of young talent in World Football. Kenny also has Ireland performing well at that level, but that did not translate into senior football. I think he is clearly one of the stronger candidates, but it could backfire just like Kenny.
Someone who has a history of making a team achieve more than the sum of its parts would be key for me.
