Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand has admitted he would relish the chance to manage England following the departure of Roy Hodgson.

Sam Allardyce is the current bookmakers' favourite for the Three Lions job, with reports claiming USA coach Jurgen Klinsmann has also been interviewed.

But Ferdinand, who won 81 caps with the national team, has now offered a diagnosis of England's disastrous showing at Euro 2016 in an interview with Copa 90, and has also expressed an interest in entering management.

"When you don't know your starting XI when you get to the tournament, and you don't know your best formation, there's a problem," he said.

"When you perform in a team, individuals can only perform to their greatest ability when the platform at the bottom is set, the foundations are set... the structure, the understanding of what you want your team to do.

"When a player then is not performing too well as an individual, he can fall back on that platform of structure, the team, the unity.

Ferdinand then adds: "That's why I should be a manager." When asked if he would take the England job, he replies: "All day."
