Gary Neville and both believe the manager should be English, amid links to .
With on whether he wants to become the Three Lions' boss, the manager has been linked with the national team's post. Guardiola has previously said he and with his contract at the Etihad Stadium expiring next summer, the FA has reportedly

Shortly after resigned from his position, Neville told Sky Sports: “Over the years we have had every type of manager - the fashionable, the international manager, best English managers, people who have come through the ranks with youth teams. There is no science in terms of what works and there are obvious contenders.
“Graham Potter and Eddie Howe will get mentioned and I think it will definitely be an English manager. Moving to St George's Park was to promote and develop English coaches. To away from an English manager and give it to an international manager would be wrong."
However, the former Valencia manager also added: "You can't dismiss , Pep Guardiola, sensational managers like that but we don't develop our own managers. English coaching has a long way to go to catch up with the other great nations.
"We have to work hard and put them in the biggest environments and toughest matches. Give them an opportunity." Speaking on Sky Sports in the summer, Neville concluded a speech about the next England manager by admitting: "I do believe we should stay [with] an English coach."
Carragher had the same view point as his former rival. He reflected on his experience with Sven Goran-Eriksson and Fabio Capello, which saw the Three Lions fail to progress further than the quarter-finals in a major tournament.
He said to Sky Sports: "I'm not a believer in foreign managers managing England. It's nothing against foreigners - what foreign managers and players have done to the Premier League is amazing. "It's basically made what our league is today which is the envy of the world. But we're not an emerging nation, we're England and I know we've only won one trophy but other countries on our level - Italy, Spain, Germany - they don't have foreign managers. We don't need a foreign manager, we've done it before."
“I was involved in those times under Sven [Goran-Eriksson] and Fabio Capello – it wasn’t great. Not a patch on what Gareth Southgate’s done.
“He had no pedigree in management before getting the job and I think that tells you in itself that it’s not about going and getting the best manager in club football. Club football is completely different.
"Spain have just won the tournament with a coach no one really knows. I’m not a big believer in that you have to get a Jurgen Klopp or a Pep Guardiola and that will make the difference.
“International football is knockout football. If you look at the Champions League, Pep Guardiola doesn’t win it every year even though he’s the best manager and probably has the best team. Things can go awry, things can happen.”
