Jamie Carragher suggests a potential replacement for Gareth Southgate and expresses his worries about Jurgen Klopp's future.

Jurgen Klopp's departure from Liverpool has left him free to be considered for the position of England's national team manager. Jamie Carragher, a former Liverpool player, believes that there is only one clear choice to replace Gareth Southgate, and it's not Jurgen Klopp.

Southgate recently announced that he would be stepping down as the Three Lions boss after an impressive eight years and 102 matches in charge. Now, the race is on to find his successor, with many high-profile names being mentioned as potential candidates. One of them is Klopp, who achieved great success at Liverpool, winning the Premier League and Champions League and playing an attractive style of football.

However, Carragher does not believe Klopp would be the right fit for the job. He argues that there are significant differences between club football and international football, and success at one level does not necessarily translate to the other. He also believes that the FA should appoint an English manager, and not look to overseas coaches, as international football should be about the best against the best.

Carragher makes a case for Eddie Howe, who he believes is the front-runner for the job. Howe has proven himself as a successful club manager with Bournemouth and is currently doing a great job with Newcastle United. He plays an attacking style of football and has good man-management skills, making him a safe pair of hands to handle the media and be an ambassador for the country. Howe has also expressed his ultimate ambition to manage England, which adds an emotional pull to the job.

The only obstacle for the FA may be whether Howe is willing to leave his current job at Newcastle, where he has ambitions to win trophies and compete in the Champions League. However, Carragher believes that Howe ticks all the boxes for the job and is the perfect fit for the national team. He concludes by saying that he would be shocked if Howe is not offered the job, as none of the other contenders come close to being the right fit.
