While the above is kind of correct, the problem is that he behaves like a twat far too often.

The English sports media takes it a new level of cringe.
Iām not a fan of Tuchel but the fact is that heās won nearly all there is to win in club football including the champions league.
But the English sports media would rather someone who couldnāt hack it in club football be given the job.

And it must be eating up Tuchel inside.
No matter what he does in his career , heās always going to be looked as inferior to Klopp.
Heās always going to be the second choice etc for the German team.
If it motivates him to win the World Cup with England, Iāll take it.

I do think someone like Tuchel will integrate Trent in the team well.
Whether itās with a 3 CB formation with Trent as a RM or it is with Trent either inverting as a inverting right back or playing as a conventional RB.
Tuchel has that flexibility about his playing style to get the best off of his players.

Aww, this is so lovely!
. He didnāt have to do this before his press conference.
The skeptical England supporters need to give him a chance.

This appointment has made me do a complete 180. Iām all in for England now.
I heard Redknapp and Fat Sam on the radio this morning, and the borderline xenophobic rubbish they are spouting can GAGF.
My dream would be for some Tuchel silverware, followed by Old Toilet poaching him for a more localised implosion.

I wouldnāt be necessarily against that.
When Timmy Cahill nodded one in against Japan in the 2006 WC, I bought an Everton shirt.

Could have sworn there was a header in there, but both goals were with his feet.

This makes me very conflicted. I actually buy the general argument being made by Sam Wallace and Barney Ronay that this sort of outsourcing by established nations cheapens international football. Obviously there is a very fuzzy line we see a lot with players, but acknowledging that fuzziness doesnt have to make you accept that hiring a manager with no connections to the country or its football system is a good thing. But trying to argue that position puts you uncomfortably close to mouth breathing idiots.

Yeah, this is exactly what Fat Sam said.

I thought to myself, āFrom whose mouth would that argument sound more ridiculous?ā
I went with Allardyce. I stand by my choice.

Prince William, the Prince of Wales, reacted to the news on social media, saying: "Exciting times for England, with a generation of talented players and a new manager taking the reins.
āWe outsourced our monarchy to the Germans so may as well give them the england managerās job as well.ā
