Good points. Either way you fall on this, I can’t get excited about international football generally nowadays outside of major tournaments which I devour. I’m all Albion, all the time
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
[Albion] Thomas Tuchel **Appointed England Manager 15/10/24**

- Start date
The FA aren't going to buy out a Premier League manager. It is going to be someone unemployed.

Impossible to say if he would be a good or bad appointment. International football is almost an entirely different sport to manage in compared to club football. Look at the experience of the last managers to win the euros and world cup as well as the England manager who made 2 finals.
I like his VIBE and I can see him being a hype man and giving some freedom to play but other than that I can't come on here and say "disaster" like many would love to do. It seems disliking England or international football seems to be a thing people enjoy telling others about.

At this point I'd be shocked if Potter isn't offered the job.
I liked the analogy on TS earlier - he's like the kid in the classroom who always has his hand up, with the teacher ignoring him and asking 'Anyone else?'
Nah, Tuchel indicates they are going in the opposite direction. Its McClaren into Capello all over again. "Probably lost because we had a nice English manager so lets appoint an angry foreign dickhead".
Tommy Tootle is an absolute pointy-faced drama queen.
It could be hilario.
Just wait till he's told he cannot pick Timo Werner.

È quello che è
We are close to a world where Donald Trump is running the US, Thomas Tuchel in England Manager and one of Jenrick or Badenoch is leader of the opposition. F*cking hell!!! What next??
When's your interview?

Fans: "Southgate is boring and isn't a winner. We need someone who will take the handbrake off and has a track record of winning things".
The FA: "Here's a manager who won the CL with a non-fancied team, has managed big players and has won league titles and cups in differing countries whilst wanting his teams to play attacking football?"
Fans: "Well we didn't mean THAT one"

I really can't stand Tommy Tuchel. Probably my least liked manager in the Premier in the last decade. Probably a good manager but I can't stand his personality and constant moaning

Starmer...Looks like the sunlit upland utopia we’ve all been promised is finally here.
I know, I know . . .but we've already had the tango twat in charge of the US, worse England Managers, and Boris as PM!
its a never ending cycle of shit flavoured bile
Tommy Tootle is the new tight-lipped supremo!

so not Potter then, despite so many certain it was?
there's a certain logic here: Southgate was widely disliked as manager but got us to a couple of finals. go out further on the dislike scale and it's a sure thing we'll win something right?
