“If we want to win something, if we want to see this group of players play to their absolute potential, then we need to appoint the best.
“I’ve heard that Pep Guardiola is thinking about international management when he leaves Manchester City.
“He wants to work with a group of players that are capable of winning something, so England should tick all the boxes for him. The FA should be on his case.
“They should have a conversation and see if there’s interest. If there is, then they should be doing absolutely everything possible to bring him in.”

Klopp tipped for England
Former Liverpool midfielder Dietmar Hamann has tipped Jurgen Klopp to replace Gareth Southgate as England boss.
He told TopOffshoreSportsBooks: “Jurgen Klopp wants to take a year off and the German national team manager role is taken, but I’m pretty sure England will approach Klopp.
“I think a lot of people would be very happy if he were to take over the national team. He said he’s taking a sabbatical so is it possible to wait for six months or maybe let him take over next summer?
“There are a few qualifiers but qualifying has always been pretty comfortable for England. I think they will ask him whether he wants to do it and then it’s up to him whether he would accept it or not, Thomas Tuchel might be interested as well.
“Years ago it would have been hard to imagine a German manager in England but the chances have never been better than it’s going to happen in the next few months.
“On paper, Jurgen Klopp is best placed to lead England to World Cup glory in 2026 because of what he did at Liverpool. He managed to win the Premier League and two Champions League titles, with the squad he had he did wonderful things.
“I think with the squad England have got now and also the age of the players, I think they’ll be a force for the next two or three tournaments. Obviously the next World Cup is in two years’ time.
“It’s certainly something which could get England fans dreaming.”

Bullingham statement
FA CEO Mark Bullingham has released a statement following Gareth Southgate’s departure as England manager.
He said: “On behalf of English football, I would like to pay tribute to Gareth Southgate and to Steve Holland for everything they have achieved.
“Over the last eight years they have transformed the England men’s team, delivering unforgettable memories for everyone who loves the Three Lions. We look back at Gareth’s tenure with huge pride – his contribution to the English game, including a significant role in player development, and in culture transformation has been unique. However, it is his record of winning tournament games which is most extraordinary.
“In the 25 tournaments post 1966 before Gareth took charge, we had won seven knockout games. In his four tournaments we have won nine. So, in his eight years, he has won more games that really matter than in the previous 50 years.
“And of course, we have had strong tournament performances throughout their tenure. We came so close to winning the EUROs in London and securing the first trophy for our men’s team for over 50 years – and came so close again in Berlin on Sunday.”
