How Do You Like The Thought Of A German Managing The English Football Team??

Whatever your thoughts, you'd better get used to it:

who cares if he wins something?

[Canary42]

We had a Swede, so why not ?

Mind you, I can't see Tuchel lasting very long.

[Hopkirk]

I would have appointed Sarina Wiegman.

[Mozz71]

No issues, none of the British managers have won anything (in 58 years)

[Cloverjo]

Why does it matter? We have a New Zealander managing the England cricket team with great results. 
 

[jourdain2]

It'sow about business, now, not sport and patriotism - so why not?

[Khandro]

Great, he's a very good manager. 

[Canary42]

Our reigning monarch H M King Charles III is of German descent after all.

[Gizmonster]

Just to clarify my thoughts on this, I couldn't give a rat's ass on whether the England manager is male, female, German, Martian ..... if they win us something (for a change) .... I'm all for it  :)

[douglas9401]

He may have his work cut out in changing things. As German comedy ambassador Henning Wehn likes to say 'we Germans like a laugh as much as the next lot, the difference is we laugh after the work is done, not instead of'.

Too entitled and full of their own importance.

[Ken4155]

We might just start winning more penalty shoot-outs😉

[Ludocruz]

Some pundits are already querying whether Tuchel will be singing the National Anthem. He obviously won't, along with half the team who don't.😆

[Ken4155]

Too much fuss about those who do or do not sing the dirge that is the National anthem. Singing it will not help anyone's performance.

[vulcan42]

The National Anthem was dropped from cinemas decades ago, it's about time it was dropped from sporting fixtures. Those of us Royalists are not less loyal just because the National Anthem isn't played. They could quit bending the knee as well.

As others have said, we might start winning  and let's be honest he couldn't be much worse than those who preceeded him.

[10ClarionSt]

But the anthem isn't national, is it? It's about the monarch, not the nation.

[curlyfries81]

We had Fabio Capello too. Nationality doesn't matter, it's results that count.

Couldn't give a rats rectum.

Possibly because I'm not racist

[davebro3]

I don't care. I don't follow football.  It's not a matter of life and death is it (I've heard said).

[Old_Geezer]

The appointment of a guy from Sweden was a bit of a shock at the time, but since we've now got used to it, I see no problem with a guy from Germany having the job.  Strictly speaking I think a national squad should be managed by a fellow national, but that seems abandoned now, so it's no longer important.

[barry1010]

I don't like it one bit.

Not because he is German but because he is not good enough for the German team. If he is not their first choice, he shouldn't be ours
