If you’ve been living under a rock recently, then you might have missed England’s European Football Championship (EUROs) final defeat. The Three Lions lost 2-1 to Spain on Sunday, securing a record fourth EUROs title for the Spaniards.

England hardly set the world alight in a run of boring games

While England did make it all the way to the final, many fans and opponents alike have criticised the playing style of the team. Despite being flooded with talent such as Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham and Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane, England hardly set the world alight in a run of boring games that saw them only face two teams in the top 10 of FIFA rankings.

In light of this, many expect the Football Association (FA) to make a managerial change for England. Gareth Southgate has reached two EUROs finals in his eight years in charge but failed to get it over the line on both occasions. Fans will be hoping a change can ensure that football finally does “come home.”

Now that the EUROs are over, VegasSlotsOnline News has found the latest odds for who might take Southgate’s place.

Graham Potter +200

Former Chelsea manager Graham Potter is a free agent after being let go by the Blues in April 2023. Although he was a relative flop at Chelsea, Potter earned his chance at the London club with his transformation of the Brighton & Hove Albion team, introducing an exciting strategy of fast, attacking soccer.

received offers from Lyon, Ajax, and Leicester since losing his Chelsea role

Potter certainly isn’t short of options. He has received offers from Lyon, Ajax, and Leicester since losing his Chelsea role. He has turned down all of them.

Potter is favorite to take the England job. Even ex-England star Michael Owen has backed Englishman Potter for the role, mainly because he believes international teams should have managers from the same nation. “The one manager free and available is Graham Potter, who may take it,” Owen said.

Eddie Howe +500

Current Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe is next up in the odds at +500, despite already having a job. He guided Newcastle to a seventh-place finish in the English Premier League (EPL) last season, a slight disappointment for fans after the fourth-place finish he achieved the prior year.

Before Newcastle, Howe made a name for himself with AFC Bournemouth. He helped the Cherries to the top flight of English soccer for the first time ever in 2015/16, bringing them up all the way from the fourth tier. When they made it to the EPL, Bournemouth secured safety for four seasons under Howe before they were relegated in 2019/20.

it could also be a chance for Howe to make an even bigger name for himself

It might be difficult to tear Howe away from Newcastle, since the club is fighting for a place among the top teams after an injection of Saudi money. However, it could also be a chance for Howe to make an even bigger name for himself.

Lee Carsley +500

Former Ireland midfielder Lee Carsley is perhaps not as well known as our first two favorites. He is the head coach of England U21s, leading the team to U21 EUROs victory last year. In doing so, he became the first England coach to take EUROs victory at any level.

Earlier this year, Carsley rejected the chance to become Republic of Ireland manager, leaving him open for the England job if the FA comes knocking. Reports suggest that he is under consideration and its important to remember that Southgate held the U21 manager role before he secured the England job.

The betting odds

Graham Potter +200

Eddie Howe +500

Lee Carsley +500

Mauricio Pochettino +600

Thomas Tuchel +600

Jurgen Klopp +750
