A new England The next coach is German and it really, really doesn't matter

While objectivity has never had much place in English football, Thomas Tuchel's appointment as the new national team coach represents a significant departure in two obvious ways.

A new England The next coach is German and it really, really doesn't matter

For starters, this would be the first time the Football Association has appointed a coach who has worked in England and won the European Cup. Fabio Capello, Don Revie and Bobby Robson won European trophies. But Tuchel is something more specific. This is a former Uefa men's coach of the year, who led two clubs to the final of the Champions League in three years. Plus he has that obvious recent major final victory, achieved with an English club, Chelsea, or at least a side containing three English players in the squad for the final.

The second obvious departure from the norm, the point that really, really, just should not be a point, is that Tuchel is German.
