New England interim head coach Lee Carsley has vowed to put his own stamp on the job ahead of his audition to become next full-time boss.

Carsley was confirmed as Gareth Southgate’s temporary successor ahead of the UEFA Nations League matches next month and sources have indicated he has a genuine chance of becoming full-time manager if he impresses.

Mauricio Pochettino’s decision to accept an offer from the USA has strengthened Carsley’s chances of being appointment permanent boss given the Argentine had key admirers at the FA.

Carsley, who is set to appoint Ashley Cole as his No 2, says he is ready to make changes from the party that reached the Euro 2024 final earlier this summer.
