Sport daily mail England football team
The Daily Mail was predictably aghast at Thomas Tuchel becoming England manager and this is surely the only response you need
You don’t need to be a football fan to have noticed the news today that Thomas Tuchel has been confirmed as Gareth Southgate’s successor as the new full-time coach of the men’s England football team.
Tuchel is a serial winner and the Football Association will be hoping he carries that on with England to bring an end to all those years of hurt.

The 51-year-old is also German, and it was naturally this that was the focus of the Daily Mail’s news coverage today. And even though it was entirely predictable, it still has the capacity to shock written down.
That comment piece ends with the suggestion that ‘we are the laughing stock of the world game’. Not sure they’re laughing at England, though.
It prompted no end of entirely on-point responses …

Genuinely thought this Daily Mail back page must be a spoof.
It’s not.

… but surely no-one put it better than this.
This Daily Mail back page is an absolute disgrace. I know people will say to ignore it and not afford it oxygen but it’s simply embarrassing.
Putting the word “GERMAN” in capital letters; it’s 2024, this sort of utterly backwards bollocks should be well behind us. pic.twitter.com/4mhJ5EOkuB

Absolutely that.
It’s fun living on an island where adult men have a kind of dementia that makes them think that they personally fought in WW2. Probably fine that this is literally how an entire voting block sees the world https://t.co/pEauyHVGio

Yes you’re right @MailOnline , it is indeed a “Dark day for England”, but not for the reason that you think, but for the fact that a prominent British newspaper, posts a glaringly xenophobic headline/story as this! WTF does it matter if he is German or not?! #xenophobia https://t.co/nHojOMXfjH

Every single word of this tweet. You need to be English to PLAY for England, not to MANAGE England. Could not give two fucks where the boss is from. Good luck to Thomas. #Tuchel https://t.co/JuRNT0YPPs

Pure xenophobia. pic.twitter.com/Zgis9HSvMi
