Harry Redknapp has made it clear that he would be keen to succeed Fabio Capello as England manager, should the FA decide it is time for another change at the helm of the national side. After England suffered their worst-ever World Cup finals defeat to Germany yesterday, Redknapp refused to say whether he thought Capello should be sacked but added that if they did he would be interested in the job.

"They [the FA] have got a manager and until he's not the manager it's difficult to talk about it," Redknapp told TalkSport. "But I'm English, who wouldn't want to manage England? There's not an Englishman - whether it's me, Roy Hodgson or Sam Allardyce - who would turn the job down because it's our country and we want to manage our country.

"No one is ever going to turn that job down. If you're English you cannot not want to manage your country."
