Unreal xenophobia today from the papers and the likes of Neville and Carragher.

English coaches get everything handed to them on a silver platter and are still awful. If there was one good enough they’d like be the manager today.

How do you think Germans would react if an Englishman got the job of their national team? I would say far more reaction from the Germans.

Gary Lineker said the England manager should always be English but Alan Shearer said it should be the best man for the job regardless of nationality. Thought it would be the other way around.

I do get the point on nationality. Ideally you'd want a manager to be from the nation they manage. I think very few foreigners have managed international sides to the WC / Euro title.

But realistically England aren't producing top tier managers so you should go for the best option available.

As much as I like Howe and Potter you couldn't really argue they're on Tuchels level and he is a second tier manager really tbf so it's a bit of an indictment on the English managerial scene.

Could we envisage Harry Redknapp, Fat Sam or Steve MacClaren taking over Germany, and proceed to belt out Deutschland Uber Alles with gusto? (Shteve might have...)

Isn't it rather silly to expect Tuchel to 'like a torrent rush' sing 'God Save the King' ?

He shouldn't sing the national anthem. I know he's an Anglophile but that would just be silly.

You'll notice that not a single English person inquired about whether Steve Maclaren will be singing the Jamaican National Anthem now he's taken over as their manager.

I notice one of the lines in the anthem goes:

'Give us vision lest we perish.'

Pretty much sums up Shteve's managerial career that.

Listening to Ornstein on an Athletic pod talking about Tuchel appointment and he casually let slip that Tuchel really wanted the Arsenal job before Wenger resigned but we did not want to interview anyone behind Arsène's backl. Interesting comments.

We probably weren’t getting him once we hired Sven Mislintat.

Being practically Scottish, Shearer making sure the door is open for himself.
