Thomas Tuchel: Is ex-Chelsea boss right for Three Lions?

What may have contributed to his behavior as a coach at times may be the fact that he never reached his peak as a player.

In fact, Tuchel had to end his career at the age of 24.

He then began studying business administration and worked as a waiter in a bar to earn some extra money.

He started getting his coaching badges and was given the crucial opportunity by Ralf Rangnick to work as a youth coach for Stuttgart.

He later helped current German coach Julian Nagelsmann, who played in Augsburg's reserve team under Tuchel and also had to give up at a young age, by encouraging him to become a coach.

“Thomas was an outstanding, passionate player on the pitch who gave everything, but sometimes he had few friends among his teammates because he was so demanding and demanding, which did not go down well with some players.” Heiner Schuhmann, former Augsburg player Youth coach told BBC Sport.

“Yes…but”, these are words that could best describe Tuchel.

He enjoyed success and enjoyed periods where he was praised as one of Europe's best tacticians and was even compared to one of his former idols, Pep Guardiola.

But at the same time, Tuchel tends to fall out with players and superiors or to formulate his demands from superiors in an undiplomatic way.

“Tuchel can be incredibly charming and diplomatic, but also entertaining and humorous,” Raphael Honigstein told BBC 5 Live. “At the same time, he can be a bit harsh on his players and that doesn’t always go over well.”

Perhaps the less hectic world of international football, where Tuchel does not have to interact with the media on a daily basis and where he is not in constant contact with players but can thrive in analyzing players and tactical approaches, actually suits his personality So.

But now that he has been hired, the FA must accept that Tuchel has his standards, even some quirks, and accept him more or less as he is.
