Re: England National Team
Had some talks with Tuchel
Everyone up in arms that we should be getting Pep, why are we talking to this guy
Sigh

Re: England National Team
I saw a few clickbait headlines about this but didn't click on any... I'd rather we kept Carsley or got Potter personally. Tuchel isn't the right man at all and I really hope we aren't genuinely considering him.Cereal Killer wrote: ↑Tue Oct 15, 2024 1:45 pm Had some talks with Tuchel

Re: England National Team
Said it over the summer but England would have won the tournament with Tuchel in charge.
The talent is there, just need somebody to install the arrogance and belief. Tuchel is perfect for that.

Re: England National Team
That escalated quickly. Explains Carsley's comments.
I'm a bit sceptical myself, don't think his recent run has been great. Bayern was a bit of a mess and he seems to flame out wherever he goes.
Good luck to him though.

Re: England National Team
Is he even all that good? Feels like we've decided that to win something we should employ someone who's failed in his last two big jobs?
I need someone far more knowledgeable about him to fill me with some confidence here!

Re: England National Team
Disappointed he's taken the England job, would have loved him to be leading us out at BMD.

Re: England National Team
Is weird he doesn't start until January? Why have Carsley still leading the team out for two more games?
Re: England National Team
Maybe a money thing, his Bayern contract would've run out in mid-2025.blueToffee wrote: ↑Tue Oct 15, 2024 7:30 pm Is weird he doesn't start until January? Why have Carsley still leading the team out for two more games?

Re: England National Team
Just read an article on him and apparently he's very good at making decisive decisions in big matches which if true would be a wonderful thing to finally have.
Re: England National Team
I think he's an above average league manager and isn't one of the elites in spite of his reputation in football. Tournament record is good though and you know he's going to be telling the players exactly what they need to hear.
Southgate had them like a bunch of 16 year olds going to play a random tournament in Europe. They're ready to win, they've got the quality to win and I think Tuchel fills the missing gaps in that regard.
Football probably won't be much better and don't expect England to be battering teams regularly but they won't lack confidence and shy away from pressure like they have done in recent tournaments.

Re: England National Team
We win a trophy in the next 6 years now. 100%
Brilliant tournament manager.

Re: England National Team
Should have kept Carsley.
He knows a lot of the players from his time in the system and the under 21 to the senior gig is something that works time and time again in international football.
I don’t see tuchel having the temperament for this type of job.
Also, it needs to be studied how a country like ours has not produced one top level manager for near on 30 years.
The last one was Bobby Robson, before him it was probably Howard Kendall.
Spain, France, Portugal, Holland, Germany churn them out on the regular. Yet we can’t.
There still hasn’t been an English manager to win the premier league. The closest was Kevin Keegan with Newcastle.
Why is this?
