Despite the defeat England played with both character and skill at times with a young team under Pearce.
“I would be confident taking the squad to the Euros, that wouldn’t daunt me at all,” said Pearce.
“I don’t think after that period I have the experience for the job. All I’m doing is buying the Football Association some time.
“The full-time manager of England at this moment in time is probably somebody else, not me.”
