Thomas Tuchel | England Manager

"knuckle draggers"? What do you mean?

Not sure why not to have a German, Spanish, Italian, Brazilian, Argentine, etc. to coach England. English coaches are wankers (ok, current English coaches because there were some good ones in the past). Regarding Tuchel, there is no rivalry anymore between Germany and England. It was for a short period in the past, and now doesn’t exist. There is no comparison between what Germany achieved at the international level and what England did. International football is changing, and it won’t be a surprise to see a European in charge of Brazil’s national team because of their extended failures with Brazilian coaches. Not long ago, Brazilians, who are so proud of themselves when it comes to football, were talking to Ancelotti (https://www.football-espana.net/2024/01/02/real-madrid-manager-carlo-ancelotti-confirms-brazil-talks-coaching-the-national-team-is-hugely-exciting#:~:text=He did confirm he had,thank him for his interest). Now, here is a true rivalry between Brazil and Italy, yet the Brazilians talked with Ancelotti. That said, in my opinion, Tuchel is not a good choice, not because he is German but because he is not good PERIOD. But I am still curious to see how he will manage the English team.

If Germany isn't one of our rivals then who is??

Iceland?

Tuchel is more tactically aware than Gareth Waistcoat. So it is an upgrade.

We’re not ready for Emma Hayes just yet.

No, there’s no reason why it has to be a man but I’d say no woman is at the level of men’s international football just yet. Although, Martinez seems to do fairly well at getting a job;)

Don’t talk cobblers, man!

One word: BREXIT!

Good appointment imo.

Personally I think his football is dull as fuck, but if recent history is anything to go by, international tournaments seem to favor defensive football.

I find international football nowadays to not be as tough as club football, so he might actually do well, but we'll see.

Does this still mean I can hate the Germans?
Thankfully it’s not Pep so I’m happy enough.
Finally we might have some tactics other than pass to Jude and ignore Phil : )

I can't knock it.

It's the best of what's currently available and he's a mad bastard who won't be afraid to tell the fans, press or players to fuck off of he has to.

I certainly hope he can handle those ego’s.
