Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has admitted that he has "never" desired a managerial role at international level but believes that England deserve a worthy new boss.
The Gunners boss, who has been linked with the head coach role at France, has admitted that he prefers club management.
"England is a big football country with over 65 million people who have a big passion for the game," Wenger told reporters. "I love England and I want England to do well. Therefore I let the FA deal with that problem.
"I have never really been tempted by the national team job because for me it is a completely different job. I was always under contract, I respected contracts in my life.
"I am a little bit in a marathon job inside the club and the national team job is a sprinter's job. Maybe I have not enough quick fibres, but I am more interested in a day-to-day basis job."
Meanwhile, top candidate for the Three Lions' job Harry Redknapp has claimed that he would consider succeeding Fabio Capello.
