Why Some Fans Are Upset About Thomas Tuchel's England Appointment

Former football manager Harry Redknapp has expressed his disapproval of the Football Association's (FA) decision to choose Thomas Tuchel as the new England manager. Redknapp believes an English person should lead The Three Lions. Gareth Southgate stepped down after England's loss to Spain in the Euro 2024 final. The FA considered Pep Guardiola and Eddie Howe but selected Tuchel. He will be the first German-born manager and will earn double what Southgate did, at £5 million a year.Redknapp feels strongly about having an English manager. He thinks the pool of candidates was small and that Tuchel's quick dismissals from some clubs should be considered. He suggested Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard as potential candidates. Fans have mixed reactions to Tuchel's appointment. Some support him, hoping he can end England's 60-year trophy drought. Others, like Redknapp, believe an English manager is essential.
