Lee Carsley

Lee Carsley intrigues me far more as a coach than as the journeyman midfielder he once was. Seventeen years grinding through the Premier League and Football League with clubs like Everton and Derby County is its own kind of education, and I suspect that hard-won perspective is exactly what makes him effective leading England's under-21s. I have always believed the most trustworthy developers of young talent are the ones who knew struggle as players themselves. Carsley strikes me as that type, a builder rather than a showman, and I genuinely look forward to seeing how many graduates he sends upward.
