Tuchel has shown tremendous warmth towards England and English football. He's been open about wanting to return to England and so for me I'd rather have him as manager then some tax avoiding inept who spends most of their time burning themselves on the Costa del Sol. If Tuchel at some point decides to join in with singing God Save the King and maybe even at some point he comes to identify as being at least part English - based on the fact that he's lived in England for some time, has mastered the language and has made a tangible contribution to the nation (as our national team manager) then I'd be happy to call him a fellow countryman. Good luck Mr Tuchel. I'm looking forward to this next stage in the England story.
TBH I started paying attention to football more regularly when he was with Chelsea and nothing about him really gave it away to me that he wasnt English. Given I didnt listen to interviews closely but even then he's got the language down better than 2/3 of Americans or Brits.
That's the funniest thing about the racist angle via/Tuchel. Not only has he repeatedly expressed an affinity with English football, but he's felt unappreciated in Germany for awhile now. The German press mocked this appointment, labelled it desperate. I'm sure he'd take just as much satisfaction & pride at knocking Germany out at the World Cup as England manager as an Englishmen would.

What's hilarious to me is how one sided the supposed rivalry between England and Germany is. The Germans don't care about England. Oh Englands beat them in a final 6 decades ago. Boo hoo.

As a german i have just one thing to say: Youre welcome England, now you finally have a world class manager able to utilize the best national team of the past 4-6 years.
So... Only 3 managers out of 20 in the Premier League are English (4 if you want to include Russell Martin. Born in England but represented Scotland). The 3/4 English managers haven't won a single major trophy between them and the last English manager to win one of 4 trophies was Harry Redknapp in 2008...16 Years ago. No English manager has won the Premier League. The last English manager to win the 1st division was Howard Wilkinson in 1992...32 years ago. The vast majority of the backroom staff are foreign. Only 2 owners / majority shareholders out of 20 in the Premier League are English. Under 50% of the players in the Premier League are English. (think it's about 40% but don't have the data to hand). But all of the sudden it's a big problem that we've got a foreign person managing England...
You forgot to mention the manager of the Euro-winning England Women’s team is Dutch, meaning there is precedent for *an* English national team having a foreign coach
Another thing is that no English manager has won the premier league, since 1985 only two have won the main league twice (Scotland may be to blame), when you did have an English manager there were so many insulting his style of play. To remind those (not you), his worst performance at a tournament was a quarter final finish in the world cup against France. To me, the English fans really remind me of Ghanaian fans, but in a way better position: they can never be happy, nor patient, with their managers
True this, Take this into account. Last time an English manager to win the Premier league/First division: 1992 Last time an English manager to win Champions League/Europacup 1: 1984 Last time an English manager to win: FA cup: 2008 Last time an English manager to win: League cup: 2004

The Daily Mail once again being a national disgrace :/ oddly enough they were VERY keen on the Germans going all Brownshirty during the 20’s and 30’s. Edit: Alfie mentioned it during the vid.
@@joshuafrimpong244 It’s very true. There’s plenty of old releases of The Daily Mail before the outbreak of WW2 that were very keen on German Fascism. You might be even be able to find some examples on the Internet if u look hard enough.
But WiLl He SiNg Da NaShNuL aNtHeM??! Fucking melts. Not even our own players and fans can sing the national anthem. No one seems to know the words and everyone is out of time and key. You watch Wales and they raise the roof in beautiful, bombastic harmony. You watch England and everyone's mumbling and stumbling because they've got all the musical talent of beached whale being dragged back into the sea.
To be completely fair here, it's not a singing competition. Most football players can hardly even speak properly let alone perform a song. And also our national anthem is literally the most boring unemotional nonsense ever.
They have a German king, they have a giant painting of German G.F. Handel at the heart of Westminster who had a massive impact on English culture, they literally crown their kings and queens to German music ... but a German coach? Now THAT'S impossible! 😂
You know what we say about this in Germany? "We wouldnt have any problems with appointing a top English manager as national coach ..." *everyone in the room dies from laughter*
I genuinely think the Germans would be open to appointing and English manager if they‘d be in the same situation as England now. They almost appointed Van Gaal last time around.
To be fair, there are plenty of far better German managers than there are English. Flick, Nagelsmann, Tuchel, Klopp, Schmidt and Hoeness are all better than every English manager. Maybe Howe is better than a couple there but there's no reason Germany would appoint an Englishman for that reason alone
@@No1LukasGrahamFan that's why I said "if they'd be in the same situation" = which would in this alternative universe mean that there wouldn't be any good German coaches but many great English coaches
Honestly, I couldn't care less if the English manager is German. I just care if they're a good manager. Based on his CV, Thomas Tuchel seems like a good fit.
Foreign managers just seem so much further ahead than English ones, like the English candidates look like they still drink all through the offseason while Tuchel or whoever are going on diets to set examples for their players
English man here, I am personally extremely happy with the Tuchel appointment. I think if the manager speaks English and understands/respects our culture than there shouldn’t be any issue with it
If anything, having a foreign coach is less against the spirit of international football than having foreign ringers in your starting XI like Italy and Spain do.
Best German players in the premier league of all time. (Day 688) Alternativly you could do "Best German players who played outside the Bundesliga" or something like that if you prefer. I will not give up until the video is made or Alfie himself tells me to stop. Everyone else telling me that will be ignored. If you don't believe my number, just go back to the previous videos. I'm at the bottom most of the time, but I'm there.

RE: The Beatles and Beetles As a 9 year old, during an end of term quiz at school, we were once asked "name the four Beatles". As a child, I was woefully lacking in musical knowledge and proceeded (along with two friends who I was teamed up with) to list 4 beetles - dung beetle, stag beetle etc. It got a chuckle out of the teacher (who was a massive Beatles fan).
The last time English managers won something: Last time an English manager to win the Premier league/First division: 1992 Last time an English manager to win Champions League/Europacup 1: 1984 Last time an English manager to win: FA cup: 2008 Last time an English manager to win: League cup: 2004 Last time an English National Team manager to win World cup: 1966 No English manager has evere won the Euro's...
To add to that list for anyone still in doubt about the quality of English managers... One of the most recent managers to win on that list was Steve McClaren, whom England have already appointed (to disastrous effect 😅)
There was also a lot of the 'far left' that claimed France's World Cup win in 2018 was also an African World Cup victory. So it doesn't just start and end with the 'far right'.
I think I speak for 95% of England fans when I say I don't care about the ethnicity of the players, or the nationality of the manager. I just want the best players on the pitch, and the best manager available in charge of them. The press and so called pundits have shown how far out of touch they are. I just want us to win something. Tuchel seems like a smart choice to me, I'm excited to see what he can come up with.
yea, I would say most people really don't care. Just some of the old nationalist gammon and the daily mail speaking their immature attention seeking nonsense.
So less than 5% of the British voted for Brexit?! You can stop pretending England does not have a long and disturbing racist history that continues to plague the nation to this day! The ignorance is astounding! You're right that *no one* should care about race when choosing players, but you're absolutely naive if you believe "95% of England fans" don't care!
@@Lawlz4Dayzz The English FA have a pretty bad reputation for being reluctant to call up players of dual nationality ahead of other FAs. So if anything we have the opposite problem.
@@cameroncopus9737 nothing idiotic about wanting an English manager, i would like an english manager, but saying you'd rather we lose with one than win a world cup with a german one is, also making it out to be all doom and gloom if we have a foreign manager.

Be absolutely f*cling HILARIOUS if he wins the world cup playing super attacking football then slams the trophy on the desk at the post match presser and just walks off. Ultimate mic drop moment.
As a foreigner I have to say though, Nigel is incredibly charismatic as a speaker. He is very dangerous when he's fighting for something that makes even a little bit of sense. That's part of how Brexit happened, he was able to drum up support on a legitimate issue without getting bogged down in the specifics of it. If it had to be a clear comparison of the issue and the consequences of course they would have lost, but with someone like that you dont have to talk about those boring but important parts. Especially when Brussels gave him a lot of ammunition to work with. TBH he's who I wish Trump was. I dont agree with either of them at all but when it comes to populist rhetoric if I had to choose one of them, its Nigel. Also I believe he doesnt openly Crime quite as hard.
To be England manager they should make applicants answer questions from the UK citizenship test. Nice easy questions like,"How long can you use a driving licence from another country to drive in the UK?" or "King Edward I of England annexed Wales to the crown of England by which statute?" You are not English if you can't answer these.
12 months for the drivers licence, and the Statue of Rhodllan in 1280-something?? I didn't want to Google but I think that's more or less right. And I actually sat the Life in the UK test as an immigrant about 15 years ago.
Things you should notice: 1.Only 3 out of 20 current Premier League managers were an English. 2.The last time an English manager had won the trophies was Harry Redknapp in 2008 with Portsmouth (FA Cup). 3.The last time an English manager had won the league happened just before the inaugural season of the Premier League, which was Howard Wilkinson with Leeds United in 1992. 4.The last time an English manager had won the European Cup/Champions League was Joe Fagan with Liverpool in 1984, although Bobby Robson being the last one if we counted all European club competitions (he led Barcelona to the 1997 Cup Winners Cup triumph). 5.Even worse, there are only 2 Premier League clubs whose owners/majority shareholders being English. 6.No foreign coach has ever managed to win the World Cup. This is another big problem. George Raynor in Sweden 1958 and Ernst Happel in 1978 were the only 2 foreigners that had almost won the World Cup. The women's side also followed this script. Last year, England did lose the World Cup Final to Spain with their foreign coach from the Netherlands (Sarina Wiegman).
Money aside, coaching an international team like England, Italy, Netherlands etc, is usually a pinnacle of a manager's career. Tuchel was unemployed anyway, so even though he will get less than he did at Bayern, £5million is still a bit better THAN £ZERO. So no, a step up not down...
@@jimbob-robob No its a step down for sure tuchel has been more succesful then the england national team. He's the prize in this sitation. England clearly needs him.
Have you seen the price of becoming a coach at A and Pro licence l ,miles more expensive than in Spain, Italy and France. Thats why Spain has 15000 plus coaches , no in Germany , France & Italy is high too. Greece won the Euro in 2004 with a German coach who spoke no Greek.
Only THREE English managers in the EPL!? THAT is a disgrace! Don't mind Tuchel but it's obviously a symptom of a greater English soccer malaise with so much foreign talent preferred in the leagues...
As a completely outsider in this story, I thought all the buzz was because England and Germany are football rivals (like I believe Brazilians would demand the head of the FA president if they were to elect a Argentinian manager but they are demanding a foreign manager (Ancelotti, Mourinho, Jorge Jesus)) but now I see is actually a deeper problem
Alfie's covered something like that in a video before - England fans think they have rivalries with all sorts of teams, while our "rivals" have other teams as their rivals.
Appoint SouthGoat and we can both have two attempts every tournament (I would say England already get more than one attempt, as we'd definitely claim if it Wales won, but come on, like that'd ever happen)
We'll celebrate together. I could care less, seeing England win would feel like a once in a lifetime achievement. You guys know how to drink so we'll have a great time!
@@leandrometfaneveryone will dread if Germany gets a fifth, before Brazil’s sixth. Because you couldn’t argue that Germany aren’t, the best country at football. Because they’d have been, in more finals than Brazil.
I feel it has to be mandatory to have your manager be from your own country, i say this as a Norwegian whose manager is absolute dogshit, and needs to go.
I think one of the major challenges for English managers is that, because there's so much competition for jobs in the premiership, they often have to take opportunities that are, being generous, sub-optimal and which talented foreign managers would avoid. The best example of this is Sean Dyche, who I believe is one of the great managerial pragmatists and has managed to keep Everton in the prem despite a substandard team and points deductions but who, when they are finally relegated, will be perceived as a failure instead of a miracle worker. His next job will then likely be in the maddest league in the world, the Championship, where every team in the top 12 views anything less than promotion as abject failure and the finances are like corporate hara-kiri.
The hilarity of ‘ethnic-nationalism’ is it’s so arbitrary. At what point does someone ‘become native’? Any given person’s ancestors emigrated to Britain at some time or another, as humans are not, in fact, native to this region of the world. Also amazing how white British people get to call themselves whatever (Australian, American, South African, Expat).
I know, I make the same argument to people complaining about reparations etc. I'm not really any different to you, its all arbitrary and a social construct, live and let live.
@@B00tieW4rriOR Bloody Beaker folk. Coming over here, rowing up the Tagus Estuary from the Iberian Peninsula in improvised rafts. Coming here with their drinking vessels. What's wrong with just cupping up the water in your hands and licking it up like a cat?
Bro it's so weird to me as a German that there's still a large number of English people that view Germany as their number 1 enemy of the state. Like, nobody here cares about England. People should be happy a manager as good as Tuchel chose to coach a national team whose fans have made it the least popular team in Europe.
To be fair our politics and history make us basically the least popular country in Europe anyway. But yeah it is so funny to me too we have this one-sided rivalry. I heard German fans consider the Netherlands more of a rival right? Most actual people were happy about Tuchel's appointment. Just the gutter press decided to embolden the worst "fans". Which would explain a lot about the perception of England fans too.
Personally, i think no national team should have a foreign manager. You're not allowed to use foreign players so why can you use a foreign manager? If english managers suck then that's what we have to deal with until we can get better coaches
This. We can't just draft left backs and dms in because we're weak in those areas. We've got what we've got and if we want better, we can't cheat or shortcut, we have to develop our own
@randyschwaggins he was born in London, I don't have a strict rule set when it comes to who can play for England because that'll only invite racist rhetoric but you should have some connection to England whether it be birth place or close family ties to play/manage England
if it was pep or klopp, i guarantee clowns like nev or people like carra who admittedly “didn’t care that much” for the national team would be jumping for joy
I've read somewhere recently, that the cost for achieving your UEFA Pro licence in the UK is about 5 times the cost of Continental Europe. Not sure why there is such a massive difference, but it certainly goes a long way towards the problem of a lack of qualified English Managers.
The fact is that we don’t have a English manager that’s done anything in terms of winning top trophies so it’s their own fault for not being good enough
I'd have preferred an English manager, but the fact that the media went so wild for Lee Carsley after two decidedly average and disjointed performances against Ireland and Finland (his first two games) only made me realise how bad the options must be. Tuchel is a good fit.
Wasn’t/Isn’t Farage married to a German? Also, Lee Carlsey played for Ireland, so whilst he wasn’t born in Ireland he did play for a foreign team and thus is technically a foreign manager (in football terms). If Tuchel does (by some incredible miracle) manage to get England to play in an even slightly interesting way and like they hadn’t all just met each other that afternoon then he’ll be lauded. If he wins a major trophy I guarantee the naysayers, tedious racists and the daily mail (which is consistently both) will be calling for Tuchel to be knighted
Two points of note here. Calling Sven a mercenary barely a month and a bit after his death is peak Daily Mail. Sam Wallace, the chief football writer for the Telegraph, wrote on the 12th Oct that Guardiola would be "the most ambitious FA project"! Before walking it back 3 days later when Tuchel was appointed to say that it "goes against everything international football exists for".
Hiring Tuchel basically ruins the point of St George’s park, but even international football is essential globalized now where people have multiple ethnicities and choose up to multiple countries to play for.
I'm a Pole and we have similar discusion. At last years managers of polish NT looks like a cake: - Paulo Sousa(Portugese) - Czesław Michniewicz(Polish) - Fernando Santos(Portugese) - Michał Probierz(Polish) Now this debate tired both side and no one care.
It would be funny if in the next few years, people will somehow say that they miss Southgate. The guy was guilty of many things but getting to the euro final twice wasn’t a task any Average Joe could do.
While he wasn't the best people have to remember England were in shambles after the Iceland defeat in euro 2016 no one expected the 2018 team to do anything in the world cup and we did amazing expectations grew because between 2018 and 2024 we've had amazing young talent I still think we should have a won a trophy but he still an amazing job tbh
oh I'm sure they would, even right now. I remember how when Emery was managing Arsenal, everyone was calling him bad and calling for his sack, then immediately after he gets sacked, everyone is nostalgic and wants to bring him back. It was really funny, albeit ridiculous
As an Irishman, I am very disappointed that England didn't hire an English manager. They might win something now.
Your disappointment is much more rational than theirs.
"It's like people only do things because they get paid. And that's just really sad."

Fucking melts. Not even our own players and fans can sing the national anthem. No one seems to know the words and everyone is out of time and key.
You watch Wales and they raise the roof in beautiful, bombastic harmony.
You watch England and everyone's mumbling and stumbling because they've got all the musical talent of beached whale being dragged back into the sea.
Melts😂😂😂😂😂😂 wales😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 music talent😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 this isn’t X factor go back to watching love island kid and knoshing over Tom jones
It's a sh1t anthem. I'm as English as anyone and I think the national anthem is sycophantic trash.
To be completely fair here, it's not a singing competition.
Most football players can hardly even speak properly let alone perform a song.
And also our national anthem is literally the most boring unemotional nonsense ever.
Tbf the national anthem is dogshit. Fuck the king. Fuck the queen. I wouldn’t sing for them.
@@Blaze-2457”😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂” petulant child.
They have a German king, they have a giant painting of German G.F. Handel at the heart of Westminster who had a massive impact on English culture, they literally crown their kings and queens to German music ... but a German coach? Now THAT'S impossible! 😂
Apparently Scottish, Irish and fans from all countries other than England were disappointed England didn't appoint an English manager
Let's not forget that football purist Harry Redknapp managed the national team of my beloved Jordan
You know what we say about this in Germany?
"We wouldnt have any problems with appointing a top English manager as national coach ..." *everyone in the room dies from laughter*
I genuinely think the Germans would be open to appointing and English manager if they‘d be in the same situation as England now. They almost appointed Van Gaal last time around.
@@maximusg88Which English manager? There are no good ones
To be fair, there are plenty of far better German managers than there are English. Flick, Nagelsmann, Tuchel, Klopp, Schmidt and Hoeness are all better than every English manager. Maybe Howe is better than a couple there but there's no reason Germany would appoint an Englishman for that reason alone
SouthGoat has a proven track record of getting to finals, you could go for him 😘
@@No1LukasGrahamFan that's why I said "if they'd be in the same situation" = which would in this alternative universe mean that there wouldn't be any good German coaches but many great English coaches
Honestly, I couldn't care less if the English manager is German. I just care if they're a good manager. Based on his CV, Thomas Tuchel seems like a good fit.
Foreign managers just seem so much further ahead than English ones, like the English candidates look like they still drink all through the offseason while Tuchel or whoever are going on diets to set examples for their players
Tuchel is probably the best manager England could’ve gotten. Already adored by Chelsea fans aswell
Yeah if he can win over those bigots, he could get the whole country
English man here, I am personally extremely happy with the Tuchel appointment. I think if the manager speaks English and understands/respects our culture than there shouldn’t be any issue with it
England needs a winner no matter if he is English or Not, as long as England is winning. Best of luck Mr. Tuchel! From the Philippines
damn Alfie wasn't this savage when I used to watch this channel a few years back
The internet radicalizes you. 🙂
He has to live in England. It really gets to people.
@@GinkgoPete Also helps that he's a Hull supporter so he's being transformed by the pain.
If anything, having a foreign coach is less against the spirit of international football than having foreign ringers in your starting XI like Italy and Spain do.
Best German players in the premier league of all time. (Day 688)
Alternativly you could do "Best German players who played outside the Bundesliga" or something like that if you prefer.
I will not give up until the video is made or Alfie himself tells me to stop. Everyone else telling me that will be ignored.
If you don't believe my number, just go back to the previous videos. I'm at the bottom most of the time, but I'm there.

RE: The Beatles and Beetles
As a 9 year old, during an end of term quiz at school, we were once asked "name the four Beatles". As a child, I was woefully lacking in musical knowledge and proceeded (along with two friends who I was teamed up with) to list 4 beetles - dung beetle, stag beetle etc. It got a chuckle out of the teacher (who was a massive Beatles fan).
*gets Yesterday PTSD flashbacks*
Been waiting for this to drop, didn’t disappoint. Bravo Alfie.
The outrage is hilarious from certain “experts” and British media outlets
The last time English managers won something:
Last time an English manager to win the Premier league/First division: 1992
Last time an English manager to win Champions League/Europacup 1: 1984
Last time an English manager to win: FA cup: 2008
Last time an English manager to win: League cup: 2004
Last time an English National Team manager to win World cup: 1966
No English manager has evere won the Euro's...
To add to that list for anyone still in doubt about the quality of English managers... One of the most recent managers to win on that list was Steve McClaren, whom England have already appointed (to disastrous effect 😅)
You’re probably the most sound Englishman I’ve come across so far in my life.
Please never change!
There was also a lot of the 'far left' that claimed France's World Cup win in 2018 was also an African World Cup victory. So it doesn't just start and end with the 'far right'.
The fjords and hammer throwing callback is one of the best jokes ever lmao
Alfie's gone IN again and I'm DYING 🤣
Right as always.
I think I speak for 95% of England fans when I say I don't care about the ethnicity of the players, or the nationality of the manager. I just want the best players on the pitch, and the best manager available in charge of them. The press and so called pundits have shown how far out of touch they are. I just want us to win something. Tuchel seems like a smart choice to me, I'm excited to see what he can come up with.
yea, I would say most people really don't care. Just some of the old nationalist gammon and the daily mail speaking their immature attention seeking nonsense.
So less than 5% of the British voted for Brexit?!
You can stop pretending England does not have a long and disturbing racist history that continues to plague the nation to this day! The ignorance is astounding!
You're right that *no one* should care about race when choosing players, but you're absolutely naive if you believe "95% of England fans" don't care!
Prob should still have the players at least born or raised in their national team countries tho
@@Lawlz4Dayzz
The English FA have a pretty bad reputation for being reluctant to call up players of dual nationality ahead of other FAs. So if anything we have the opposite problem.
This is half an hour of Alfie shutting up idiots and I love it
What's idiotic about wanting an Englishman as England Manager?
@@cameroncopus9737 nothing idiotic about wanting an English manager, i would like an english manager, but saying you'd rather we lose with one than win a world cup with a german one is, also making it out to be all doom and gloom if we have a foreign manager.
@@cameroncopus9737 Cos generally there's far more things in life to worry about. Southgate was as english as you can be and the idiots went out to make his life miserable.
@@cameroncopus9737 It's not idiotic but it reduces considerably your chances of winning since the pool of talent is quite small.
@@damonh9668Trouble is if we win something its not really England that's won it, its an Anglo German victory which taints it in my eyes
The reaction to Tuchel being appointed has been embarrassing, I do hope he proves all the naysayers wrong
Be absolutely f*cling HILARIOUS if he wins the world cup playing super attacking football then slams the trophy on the desk at the post match presser and just walks off. Ultimate mic drop moment.

Even Piers Morgan was speaking sense on this topic
As a foreigner I have to say though, Nigel is incredibly charismatic as a speaker. He is very dangerous when he's fighting for something that makes even a little bit of sense. That's part of how Brexit happened, he was able to drum up support on a legitimate issue without getting bogged down in the specifics of it. If it had to be a clear comparison of the issue and the consequences of course they would have lost, but with someone like that you dont have to talk about those boring but important parts. Especially when Brussels gave him a lot of ammunition to work with.
TBH he's who I wish Trump was. I dont agree with either of them at all but when it comes to populist rhetoric if I had to choose one of them, its Nigel. Also I believe he doesnt openly Crime quite as hard.
this "GERMAN" newspaper headline really gives me WWII vibes.. like wtf
i'm 100% sure that nobody would care if Kompany would have been apointed
To be England manager they should make applicants answer questions from the UK citizenship test. Nice easy questions like,"How long can you use a driving licence from another country to drive in the UK?" or "King Edward I of England annexed Wales to the crown of England by which statute?" You are not English if you can't answer these.
😂😂 99% of the people who moan about foreigners couldn't answer those questions 😂😂😂
12 months for the drivers licence, and the Statue of Rhodllan in 1280-something?? I didn't want to Google but I think that's more or less right. And I actually sat the Life in the UK test as an immigrant about 15 years ago.

Things you should notice:
1.Only 3 out of 20 current Premier League managers were an English.
2.The last time an English manager had won the trophies was Harry Redknapp in 2008 with Portsmouth (FA Cup).
3.The last time an English manager had won the league happened just before the inaugural season of the Premier League, which was Howard Wilkinson with Leeds United in 1992.
4.The last time an English manager had won the European Cup/Champions League was Joe Fagan with Liverpool in 1984, although Bobby Robson being the last one if we counted all European club competitions (he led Barcelona to the 1997 Cup Winners Cup triumph).
5.Even worse, there are only 2 Premier League clubs whose owners/majority shareholders being English.
6.No foreign coach has ever managed to win the World Cup. This is another big problem.
George Raynor in Sweden 1958 and Ernst Happel in 1978 were the only 2 foreigners that had almost won the World Cup.
The women's side also followed this script. Last year, England did lose the World Cup Final to Spain with their foreign coach from the Netherlands (Sarina Wiegman).
Hey , first time for everything 🤞😉
Who's the 3rd english manager, i can only think of Howe and O'Neil.
@@bthunderbolt4101 Sean Dyche (Everton)
Keith Woods put it best: “The team is half African but people are mad because the manager is German?”
The irony is that England have struck the jackpot in landing Tuchel, whereas for Tuchel this job is a step down.
Money aside, coaching an international team like England, Italy, Netherlands etc, is usually a pinnacle of a manager's career.
Tuchel was unemployed anyway, so even though he will get less than he did at Bayern, £5million is still a bit better THAN £ZERO.
So no, a step up not down...
@@jimbob-robob No its a step down for sure tuchel has been more succesful then the england national team.
He's the prize in this sitation. England clearly needs him.
Have you seen the price of becoming a coach at A and Pro licence l ,miles more expensive than in Spain, Italy and France. Thats why Spain has 15000 plus coaches , no in Germany , France & Italy is high too. Greece won the Euro in 2004 with a German coach who spoke no Greek.
In the title, you mean Entschuldigung, wir müssen über Thomas Tuchel reden.
Gianni Foreigner, crazy work
Isn't he the head of FIFA now?
Its actually insane that no English manager has won the PL or CL.
Only THREE English managers in the EPL!? THAT is a disgrace! Don't mind Tuchel but it's obviously a symptom of a greater English soccer malaise with so much foreign talent preferred in the leagues...
We don't call FC Bayern, "FC Hollywood", in Germany
The best English Manager is literally Gareth Southgate and people are acting surprised that the only managers that are better are foreign.
Best at most finals lost? Best at most nations league regulations? Best at biggest ever loss to Hungary?
As a completely outsider in this story, I thought all the buzz was because England and Germany are football rivals (like I believe Brazilians would demand the head of the FA president if they were to elect a Argentinian manager but they are demanding a foreign manager (Ancelotti, Mourinho, Jorge Jesus)) but now I see is actually a deeper problem
Alfie's covered something like that in a video before - England fans think they have rivalries with all sorts of teams, while our "rivals" have other teams as their rivals.
i dont think germany cares nearly as much as england do, its not comparable to brazil-argentina or italy-germany for a european counterpart.
@@tornadoduckwhy would you wanna be rivals with people who have smacked your arse every time you’ve dealt with them. That’s why they try and forget 🤫🤫
@@tornadoduckyes. Germany‘s main rivals are the Netherlands and Italy
The great hope of the Brazilians was the appointment of ancelotti as coach.
Just so you know, if England is going to win the Worldcup, we as Germans are going to claim that for our own and will celebrate the 5 Star
Appoint SouthGoat and we can both have two attempts every tournament
(I would say England already get more than one attempt, as we'd definitely claim if it Wales won, but come on, like that'd ever happen)
We'll celebrate together. I could care less, seeing England win would feel like a once in a lifetime achievement. You guys know how to drink so we'll have a great time!
As a Brazilian, being the only ones with 5 stars is the only thing keeping us relevant right now so dont claim it plz
@@leandrometfaneveryone will dread if Germany gets a fifth, before Brazil’s sixth. Because you couldn’t argue that Germany aren’t, the best country at football. Because they’d have been, in more finals than Brazil.
I feel it has to be mandatory to have your manager be from your own country, i say this as a Norwegian whose manager is absolute dogshit, and needs to go.
Oh, I've waited for this video. Love you, Alfie, stay sane, don't ever change.
I think one of the major challenges for English managers is that, because there's so much competition for jobs in the premiership, they often have to take opportunities that are, being generous, sub-optimal and which talented foreign managers would avoid. The best example of this is Sean Dyche, who I believe is one of the great managerial pragmatists and has managed to keep Everton in the prem despite a substandard team and points deductions but who, when they are finally relegated, will be perceived as a failure instead of a miracle worker. His next job will then likely be in the maddest league in the world, the Championship, where every team in the top 12 views anything less than promotion as abject failure and the finances are like corporate hara-kiri.

The hilarity of ‘ethnic-nationalism’ is it’s so arbitrary. At what point does someone ‘become native’?
Any given person’s ancestors emigrated to Britain at some time or another, as humans are not, in fact, native to this region of the world.

Bro it's so weird to me as a German that there's still a large number of English people that view Germany as their number 1 enemy of the state. Like, nobody here cares about England.
People should be happy a manager as good as Tuchel chose to coach a national team whose fans have made it the least popular team in Europe.
To be fair our politics and history make us basically the least popular country in Europe anyway. But yeah it is so funny to me too we have this one-sided rivalry. I heard German fans consider the Netherlands more of a rival right?
Most actual people were happy about Tuchel's appointment. Just the gutter press decided to embolden the worst "fans". Which would explain a lot about the perception of England fans too.
Personally, i think no national team should have a foreign manager. You're not allowed to use foreign players so why can you use a foreign manager? If english managers suck then that's what we have to deal with until we can get better coaches
This. We can't just draft left backs and dms in because we're weak in those areas. We've got what we've got and if we want better, we can't cheat or shortcut, we have to develop our own
Why? Is there a reason or?

@randyschwaggins he was born in London, I don't have a strict rule set when it comes to who can play for England because that'll only invite racist rhetoric but you should have some connection to England whether it be birth place or close family ties to play/manage England

The fact is that we don’t have a English manager that’s done anything in terms of winning top trophies so it’s their own fault for not being good enough
“I don’t give a fuck where he’s from have you seen the state of his drip” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That part made me laugh out loud 😂😂
I'd have preferred an English manager, but the fact that the media went so wild for Lee Carsley after two decidedly average and disjointed performances against Ireland and Finland (his first two games) only made me realise how bad the options must be.
Tuchel is a good fit.
Wasn’t/Isn’t Farage married to a German? Also, Lee Carlsey played for Ireland, so whilst he wasn’t born in Ireland he did play for a foreign team and thus is technically a foreign manager (in football terms). If Tuchel does (by some incredible miracle) manage to get England to play in an even slightly interesting way and like they hadn’t all just met each other that afternoon then he’ll be lauded. If he wins a major trophy I guarantee the naysayers, tedious racists and the daily mail (which is consistently both) will be calling for Tuchel to be knighted
Two points of note here.
Calling Sven a mercenary barely a month and a bit after his death is peak Daily Mail.
Sam Wallace, the chief football writer for the Telegraph, wrote on the 12th Oct that Guardiola would be "the most ambitious FA project"! Before walking it back 3 days later when Tuchel was appointed to say that it "goes against everything international football exists for".
Bombur is from The Hobbit. Don't make me unsubscribe.
Hiring Tuchel basically ruins the point of St George’s park, but even international football is essential globalized now where people have multiple ethnicities and choose up to multiple countries to play for.
I dont understand why teams having foreign players (Ireland, Scotland, Jamaica, multiple African sides) is normal but a foreign manager is a big deal?
I'm a Pole and we have similar discusion. At last years managers of polish NT looks like a cake:

Now this debate tired both side and no one care.
It would be funny if in the next few years, people will somehow say that they miss Southgate. The guy was guilty of many things but getting to the euro final twice wasn’t a task any Average Joe could do.
While he wasn't the best people have to remember England were in shambles after the Iceland defeat in euro 2016 no one expected the 2018 team to do anything in the world cup and we did amazing expectations grew because between 2018 and 2024 we've had amazing young talent I still think we should have a won a trophy but he still an amazing job tbh
oh I'm sure they would, even right now. I remember how when Emery was managing Arsenal, everyone was calling him bad and calling for his sack, then immediately after he gets sacked, everyone is nostalgic and wants to bring him back. It was really funny, albeit ridiculous
@@maciejbala477 at the time he wasn't a good fit for arsenal he's always been a top manager I'm not surprised what's hes done at villa
I'll be honest Southgate had little to no impact on us actually getting to the final. He was awful being completely honest
english fans are currently inconvenienced World- & Euro-Champions
