Carsley is preparing for his final camp as the interim head coach, taking in the Nations League ties against Greece in Athens on Thursday and the Republic of Ireland at Wembley three days after, and his headline selections were the first call-ups for the left-back Lewis Hall and the centre-half Taylor Harwood-Bellis.
Carsley named Jack Grealish in his 26-man party despite the Manchester City winger having missed his club's past five matches with a groin problem.

John Stones and Kobbie Mainoo missed out because of injury and there was no recall for Harry Maguire, who is also injured.
