It’s not just technical ability of the players imo, it’s interest and influence.
Also, my perception is they are more known and respected as managers than Carsley.
Gotcha

I would love that to be the case, absolutely no issues with it and its about being successful not the sex, so I need TP for my bunghole, the cynic in me though thinks a woman would be given a harder time of it by all in the game, not least the egos in the dressing roomPhysically there is a considerable difference between the men's and women's game, don't see what has to do managing a team.
The right woman would be more effective from the sideline as the wrong man would be.
Unfortunately you are probably correct.I would love that to be the case, absolutely no issues with it and its about being successful not the sex, so I need TP for my bunghole, the cynic in me though thinks a woman would be given a harder time of it by all in the game, not least the egos in the dressing room
Unfortunately you are probably correct.
It's a bit of a no brainer when asked who would you rather have Sherwood, Rooney, lampard etc or a top female coach who knows how to win.
Probably is those being asked have no brains.
Are you suggesting Wenger is a transvestite?Arsen Wenger never played at a good standard of football but he weren't a bad coach.

Exactly! It's the same as was said about Ange. "He hasn't managed in a proper league."Physically there is a considerable difference between the men's and women's game, don't see what has to do managing a team.

I just think they would have needed to manage a mens team before, even at a lower level as opposed to being parachuted into the England men’s national team job as their first role in the men’s game. It would smack more of a PC publicity stunt than a shrewd appointment.
I think the reverse, the higher you start the more likely the players will show the proper respect.
They all went through the same coaching courses.
Disagree. IMO I’d like to have seen them manage at some level in the men’s game before being fast-tracked into the England job. Trouble is I can totally see the FA doing it with a “oh look we were the first nation to hire a woman to coach the men, how progressive are we?” Rather than actually getting the best person for the job which is how it should be. There are coaches that have been linked with the job who have won the biggest honours in the men’s game or have coached men’s football at a high level. I’d have absolutely no problem with Wiegman getting the men’s U21 job for example but the national job is just too big for someone completely unproven at this level.
I agree it should not matter. The right person is the right person. But I cannot even begin to imagine the thick skin that would be needed by a female manager. The misogyny would be absolutely off the scale.I would love that to be the case, absolutely no issues with it and its about being successful not the sex, so I need TP for my bunghole, the cynic in me though thinks a woman would be given a harder time of it by all in the game, not least the egos in the dressing room
Why would someone who has won the biggest honours in top tier football drop down that far to manage the England men’s team?
Men’s international football is a retirement home or a an early career boost.
Money. Potentially being the first person to win a trophy with England in 60 years.
Money, point.
I'm not sure there are many people winning a trophy with England appeals to, even more so if it's someone who still saw themselves at CL level.
Na il on the head [ IMO[.I just think they would have needed to manage a mens team before, even at a lower level as opposed to being parachuted into the England men’s national team job as their first role in the men’s game. It would smack more of a PC publicity stunt than a shrewd appointment.

But equally it would be difficult to legitimately criticise a female manager of the men’s team without being accused of the same misogyny, which would be wrong.
All moot anyway as it’s not going to happen until a female manager has managed a men’s league team.
Your perception...It’s not just technical ability of the players imo, it’s interest and influence.
