Harvey Elliot throws his weight behind 'UNBELIEVABLE' Lee Carsley to replace departed Gareth Southgate as the next England manager

Liverpool midfielder Harvey Elliott has endorsed ‘unbelievable manager’ Lee Carsley to step up and become the new England boss after Gareth Southgate resigned from the Three Lions earlier this month.

Carsley, the Birmingham-born former midfielder who was capped 40 times for Ireland, led England’s Under 21s to European Championship glory last summer playing an progressive brand of front-foot football.

Elliott has been a regular for Carsley’s side during and since that triumph – and he has now given the highly-rated coach his backing to step up and lead England into the next World Cup cycle.
