Sorry, We Need To Talk About Thomas Tuchel 

“Black players probably hate racial abuse.” Thanks, Nigel 👍

As an Irishman, I am very disappointed that England didn't hire an English manager. They might win something now.

That intro was gold 😂😂😂

"Taking the jobs of our native racists" is diabolical 😂😂😂😂

Tuchel has shown tremendous warmth towards England and English football. He's been open about wanting to return to England and so for me I'd rather have him as manager then some tax avoiding inept who spends most of their time burning themselves on the Costa del Sol. If Tuchel at some point decides to join in with singing God Save the King and maybe even at some point he comes to identify as being at least part English - based on the fact that he's lived in England for some time, has mastered the language and has made a tangible contribution to the nation (as our national team manager) then I'd be happy to call him a fellow countryman. Good luck Mr Tuchel. I'm looking forward to this next stage in the England story.

If it were Klopp, people would be leaping over the moon for the news.

Day 3 of Requesting Top 7 Best Footballer Hair Transplants

The Daily Mail once again being a national disgrace :/ oddly enough they were VERY keen on the Germans going all Brownshirty during the 20’s and 30’s. Edit: Alfie mentioned it during the vid.

Alfie apologises so often, I wonder if he has Canadian roots

I didn't realise no English managers had won the PL while two Scottish managers have.

You know what we say about this in Germany? "We wouldnt have any problems with appointing a top English manager as national coach ..." *everyone in the room dies from laughter*

Bro went in hard

A country that overthrew its British (Scottish) dynasty because the king didn't want to discriminate against catholics and then handed the throne to a German dynasty because the legitimate British claimants were catholic, complaining about a German manager is hilarious.😅

Funny thing is that Curtis Woodhouse is so passionately against having a foreign manager under any circumstances, but a tweet resurfaced from a couple of years ago saying Southgate shouldn't manage England at the 2022 World Cup and that we should bring in Wenger (a Frenchman) short term...

So... Only 3 managers out of 20 in the Premier League are English (4 if you want to include Russell Martin. Born in England but represented Scotland). The 3/4 English managers haven't won a single major trophy between them and the last English manager to win one of 4 trophies was Harry Redknapp in 2008...16 Years ago. No English manager has won the Premier League. The last English manager to win the 1st division was Howard Wilkinson in 1992... 32 years ago. The vast majority of the backroom staff are foreign. Only 2 owners / majority shareholders out of 20 in the Premier League are English. Under 50% of the players in the Premier League are English. (think it's about 40% but don't have the data to hand) But all the sudden it's a big problem that we've got a foreign person managing England...

Best German players in the premier league of all time. (Day 688) Alternativly you could do "Best German players who played outside the Bundesliga" or something like that if you prefer. I will not give up until the video is made or Alfie himself tells me to stop. Everyone else telling me that will be ignored. If you don't believe my number, just go back to the previous videos. I'm at the bottom most of the time, but I'm there.

"You daft old hobbit" - this made me snort out loud in work. So funny 😂

What's hilarious to me is how one sided the supposed rivalry between England and Germany is. The Germans don't care about England. Oh Englands beat them in a final 6 decades ago. Boo hoo. West Germany and Germany have won 3 Euros and 3 World Cups since 1966. They moved on a long time ago.Their big rivals are the Dutch and think it's hilarious that Tuchel is managing England.

Dean Ashton’s opinion about Tuchel almost killed me😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

England needs a winner no matter if he is English or Not, as long as England is winning. Best of luck Mr. Tuchel! From the Philippines

The truth is, England are the only top league whose teams do not resemble a style of play linked to their respective nation. La liga whilst teams may vary slightly stick to their spanish roots in football, italy stick to their defensive roots, netherlands stick to their footballing roots, ect.. However the premier league is the one of the only large nations who look overseas for their style of play, to bring spanish football to the premier league, italian football to the premier league, dutch, german ect… never looking for their own identity as a nation.

Just so you know, if England is going to win the Worldcup, we as Germans are going to claim that for our own and will celebrate the 5 Star

Been waiting for this to drop, didn’t disappoint. Bravo Alfie.

Apparently Scottish, Irish and fans from all countries other than England were disappointed England didn't appoint an English manager

I dont understand why teams having foreign players (Ireland, Scotland, Jamaica, multiple African sides) is normal but a foreign manager is a big deal?

I visit England now and then and holy shit, some of the newspapers over there are openly racist... like what the hell.

Oh no they hired a winner that will expose the pile of shite we call the England national team !!!!!!

Things you should notice: 1.Only 3 out of 20 current Premier League managers were an English. 2.The last time an English manager had won the trophies was Harry Redknapp in 2008 with Portsmouth (FA Cup). 3.The last time an English manager had won the league happened just before the inaugural season of the Premier League, which was Howard Wilkinson with Leeds United in 1992. 4.The last time an English manager had won the European Cup/Champions League was Joe Fagan with Liverpool in 1984, although Bobby Robson being the last one if we counted all European club competitions (he led Barcelona to the 1997 Cup Winners Cup triumph). 5.Even worse, there are only 2 Premier League clubs whose owners/majority shareholders being English. 6.No foreign coach has ever managed to win the World Cup. This is another big problem. George Raynor in Sweden 1958 and Ernst Happel in 1978 were the only 2 foreigners that had almost won the World Cup. The women's side also followed this script. Last year, England did lose the World Cup Final to Spain with their foreign coach from the Netherlands (Sarina Wiegman).

This is half an hour of Alfie shutting up idiots and I love it

damn Alfie wasn't this savage when I used to watch this channel a few years back

The reaction to Tuchel being appointed has been embarrassing, I do hope he proves all the naysayers wrong

The last time English managers won something: Last time an English manager to win the Premier league/First division: 1992 Last time an English manager to win Champions League/Europacup 1: 1984 Last time an English manager to win: FA cup: 2008 Last time an English manager to win: League cup: 2004 Last time an English National Team manager to win World cup: 1966 No English manager has evere won the Euro's...

Damn. Uncensored swearing at HITC Sevens…that’s a first 😂

As a completely outsider in this story, I thought all the buzz was because England and Germany are football rivals (like I believe Brazilians would demand the head of the FA president if they were to elect a Argentinian manager but they are demanding a foreign manager (Ancelotti, Mourinho, Jorge Jesus)) but now I see is actually a deeper problem

Alfie's gone IN again and I'm DYING 🤣 Right as always.

Nigel Farage is the last person I'd expect to know anything about football 😂

Southgate was the Golden Age, people will look back fondly on his era, especially as they wont have to watch the actual games.

Alfie is absolutely on fire with this one 🔥

You went in on this one Alfie! Love it 🤣

Alfie, you are just the best

Arteta calling somebody a disgrace is peak irony

If anything, having a foreign coach is less against the spirit of international football than having foreign ringers in your starting XI like Italy and Spain do.

‘A dark day for England - the FA have appointed a world class, tactically astute manager’. It’s a weird take from the media outlets

Foreign managers just seem so much further ahead than English ones, like the English candidates look like they still drink all through the offseason while Tuchel or whoever are going on diets to set examples for their players

another banger from Alfie he simply doesn’t miss

Honestly, I couldn't care less if the English manager is German. I just care if they're a good manager. Based on his CV, Thomas Tuchel seems like a good fit.

The hilarity of ‘ethnic-nationalism’ is it’s so arbitrary. At what point does someone ‘become native’? Any given person’s ancestors emigrated to Britain at some time or another, as humans are not, in fact, native to this region of the world. Also amazing how white British people get to call themselves whatever (Australian, American, South African, Expat).

25:28 talking about Tuchel at this point in detail is wild 😂😂😂😂 love this channel man

That was a passionate and dare I say righteous speech. You the MLK of football and should feel so accomplished now. 🥱

Remember, whatever you do: DON'T MENTION THE WAR !!!!

its so refreshing to hear someone with critical thinking ability in this day and age

Beware of anyone who claims to be "patriotic"...

To be England manager they should make applicants answer questions from the UK citizenship test. Nice easy questions like,"How long can you use a driving licence from another country to drive in the UK?" or "King Edward I of England annexed Wales to the crown of England by which statute?" You are not English if you can't answer these.

Isn’t appointing a German manager and potentially finally winning an important tournament what every English football fan wants? I mean the situation is perfectly made for a level of banter the footballing World hasn’t scene so far. Imagine all the chants and rants. The entertainment is incredible. Long gone are the boring days of Southgate now.

"Eddie Nketiah, what a bunch of amateurs" 😂😂😂

Love the opening bit! Wouldn't mind seeing more stuff like that if you're able!

It would be funny if in the next few years, people will somehow say that they miss Southgate. The guy was guilty of many things but getting to the euro final twice wasn’t a task any Average Joe could do.

Wow! Didn’t expect that face to that voice. Keep up the good work

I’ll never understand how so many people inflate football into something more than what it is. It’s just a job, Tuchel is the best manager available and he was appointed.

Alfie is on a roll lately 🤣 From calling out Fabrizio, to calling out Nigel Farage and Harry Redknapp

Great video, even by your high standard. As a Scot, I have to admit I would be happy to see England win the World Cup with Tuchel just to put the racists in their place.

The issue for England is that the PL is a very international league where it’s unusual to get the top players in the top clubs to be English. And it’s even harder to find an English manager at the top of our game. Whereas that’s not the case in the other top footballing nations. So I sort of get the appointment. But it doesn’t really make sense because Southgate made a final twice. And he hasn’t been a top manager in the PL and neither has Lionel Scaloni or the last German manger before this one. So I think it’s a lot of bs. You don’t need a top club manager to win an international competition. Which is the fa’s logic.

Alfie is slowly transitioning into full on stand-up and I'm here for it

Am I allowed to not like tuchel as manager for reasons totally unrelated to his German nationality?

Tuchel is probably the best manager England could’ve gotten. Already adored by Chelsea fans aswell

The thing with the international game is its pride vs money that fuels the play. To win is one thing, to win with your own country.. absolutely different gravy. Glory is different to success. Glory can only be obtained through significant hardship, pain and sacrifice. Glory is always respected. Winning isn’t. If we do win with a foreign manager it will be nice but other big nations will just laugh to be honest. They will never take it seriously.

This is your best video yet. Gettem Alfie

"AND THE WINNERS 🏆 ARE THE NORTHERN LIGHTS/ LEVELLING UP!" ❤🇬🇧❤

No country has won a world cup with foreign coach

I still think Eddie howe would of been the better choice, not that tuchel isn't better than howe but just for the pure facts that the first big loss we have under tuchel will be a toxic thunderstorm

Wait till someone tells them their precious monarchy is also German.

intro is a bit too much 'fish in a barrell' i like it when you stay on point

To be fair, I always supported managers being from the countries whose national teams they work for. But are there even many decent English manager around at the moment? Because it seems like the best managers in the Prem in the past few years are all from other countries

That intro is a work of art 😂😂

In the title, you mean Entschuldigung, wir müssen über Thomas Tuchel reden.

I was waiting for this one Alfie 😂

Whatever Nigel is waffling about at 2:13 actually sounds pretty cool.

But WiLl He SiNg Da NaShNuL aNtHeM??! Fucking melts. Not even our own players and fans can sing the national anthem. No one seems to know the words and everyone is out of time and key. You watch Wales and they raise the roof in beautiful, bombastic harmony. You watch England and everyone's mumbling and stumbling because they've got all the musical talent of beached whale being dragged back into the sea.

Love this. Keep trying new things. The humor on this channel has been getting better and better.

Gianni Foreigner, crazy work

Alfie swearing is the pick me up I needed today.

Best video to date

I cannot believe I got a Derek Guy menswear reference in a video about Thomas Tuchel lol this is peak Internet, thank you sir.

Alfie, take a fucking bow, youre a national treasure. Never change lad. I love you.

10:55 How DARE you put that creep in the same category of the halflings! 😜

Tuchel is a perfect fit. He has shown on several occasions, that he thrives in cup tournaments (DFB Pokal with Dortmund, CL with Chelsea and the final he reached with PSG). And he is one of the best in game coaches, when it comes to reding a game and changing tactics and formations at halftime...also his private live as he said was at a highpoint when he coached in England: 16:57 he loved his time at Chelsea, loved living in London and his girlfriend is English. Congrats on becoming relevant contenders for the next world cup 👍 And didn't the English fans call for Southgates head during euro 24 for showing boring and uninspiring football?

The outrage is hilarious from certain “experts” and British media outlets

Honestly, I am happy to hear that Thomas Tuchel is the manager of the English national team. It's scary for me to hear how outdated narratives are perpetuated in this day and age. The English national team has the potential to be champions; they just need an individual who knows what they are doing and to bring out the best of the players. If one were to look at the premiership, how many of the coaches are English? Since the advent of the premiership in 1992, how many English managers have won the title? As a non-English national, your last manager was your team's biggest hinderance, and he was out of his depth. Currently, I can't think of any English manager who I would rate as top class in the level of Pep, Klop, Tuchel, etc.Yes, I understand the desire to have an English manager; I honestly can't think of one who can really fulfil the potential of the current England team. I have listened to the whole video, and there is not even one argument that holds water as to why the coach should be English. We live in an ever changing world, and holding on to old ideas that no longer make sense is just detrimental to progress and surviving.

This guy is so funny

It does feel very mercenary to go and buy the best manager/coach. Imo it should be the 'best of ours' vs the 'best of theirs' where countries with the best players and managers get their rewards.

That opening was godly

9:47 Wrong. English fans will hate a English player more if they don't play in the prem. Best example Jude Bellingham.

Hey I’m all for Tuchel but just remember a foreign manager has NEVER won the World Cup. Only 1 foreign manager has ever won the Euros (Greece 2004)

I'm one of those weird people who would like an English manager managing the English National team. If nothing else it reflects badly on the coaching in English football, where the FA cannot find an English coach to manage our international team.

It's finally happened. HITC is doing "Buzzfeed" headlines now.

As an American think about it this way. I do not care if the manager of my national team is foreign or not because we do not create great managers or players for that matter. Our best player is Christian Pulisic. He’s by no means bad he’s good but he’s no Jude Bellingham. If you do not create great managers do not expect your country’s football association to select a manager of that country. I get that you guys made football. We made basketball, but if we didn’t create great coaches then I wouldn’t have a problem with selecting a foreigner to coach our national team.

alfie going off is my favourite genre of video

The Derek guy from Twitter. So good, so sharp. Bravo

Since 1992, has an English manager ever won the EPL title?

What do you mean by "invariably they were working alongside a domestic manager"? Belgium had Roberto Martinez during their golden generation. Portugal had Otto Glória for 27 games, Scolari for 74 games, and currently has Roberto Martinez.
