England interim boss Lee Carsley has confirmed his final squad selection of his temporary reign ahead of Thomas Tuchel taking over. The Three Lions take on Greece and the Republic of Ireland in a Nations League double header across November 14 and November 17.
England are currently second to Greece in their Nations League group, making that game particularly interesting, with only top spot sealing promotion to League A. Carsley will be hoping to sign off with a bang, and to help him he has called upon a number of London-based players.
