The FA might have only just appointed a new manager a matter of months ago, but they are off on their merry way again. Building a framework for the type of manager they want, the process to bring a new head coach to the helm of the rusting, decrepit ship of English football is commencing.

The manner of Sam Allardyce's departure might see a change in tact from the FA. Alternatively, it could see them stick to their guns of British managers with Premier League experience being the perfect way to go forth. Allardyce had little time to prove himself at international level, although some comments about the managing of certain star players certainly raised questions.

England's next four matches will be in the hands of Gareth Southgate, who has already assumed the mantle of public villain number one. Southgate has ruled himself out of contention in the past, while other English managers likely to be on the shortlist are currently in work.

If there is to be a change in the way the English national team is approached and managed, a foreign option is a must, and here are THREE options...

Roberto Mancini

Touted as one of the favourites by many bookies, Mancini has the experience of English football that the governing body seem to crave so dearly. The Italian led Manchester City to their historic Premier League title in 2012, and has since returned to Italy - via Turkey - to manage Inter Milan for the second time.

As a manager, Mancini produces sides that are well structured, but he is unafraid of making changes to alter a game. He brings plans into a match, knowing he has cards to play in certain scenarios. For England this would be beneficial. Able to use the depth of resources currently available, he would utilise the whole of the squad effectively.

Mancini has experience in managing some of the game's more challenging characters, which should make dealing with the uncomfortable Wayne Rooney issue a doddle.

Marcelo Bielsa

It is hard to imagine the Football Association and Marcelo Bielsa getting along too well. Whether it would work or not is anyone's guess, but it would be fun finding out.

One of the game's tactical revolutionaries, Bielsa would be a shock to the rigid English game. The Argentine is currently out of work, too, making an appointment potentially painless. It is a fantasy for many of Bielsa's fans and it would take quite a change of heart from the FA.

A man that has been labelled the 'best manager in the world' by Pep Guardiola and lists some of the game's greatest as his disciples, Bielsa is far more than an adventurous tactician. He could bring a new understanding of the game to England and we would all be better off for his marathon press conferences.

Manuel Pellegrini

Since leaving Manchester City last summer, Pellegrini has been managing Chinese side, Hebei China Fortune. Like the other two candidates on this list, Pellegrini is an immensely knowledgeable and experienced manager. His career as a gaffer began in 1988, with spells on three different continents leading him to periods at both Man City and Real Madrid.

Having spent three seasons in the Premier League, Pellegrini would be able to go straight into management without a period learning about the players available to him. The natural understanding of what he would want from each individual still takes time, but he would have a potential advantage over others that he has first-hand experience of these players.

English football needs a calm leader as claims of corruption spread across the leagues, Pellegrini fits the bill perfectly.
