It’s weird, and he has nothing on his CV that resembles anything extraordinary, like Alonso this season for example.
He’s won leagues where absolutely anyone does, yet he’s even struggled to do that in both Bayern years which is a huge red flag. Had Dortmund not capitulated on the final day, he’d be leaving Bayern without a league title, he’s a lucky man.
But
@Fallon d'Floor could prove me wrong just by showing me any club where his team got better the longer he stayed, rather than the opposite….
Do you really want to die on this hill? At least 2 other posters called you out. I've already disproved your assesment of Tuchel's career.
Winning a CL with Chelsea by tactically outclassing Pep in a final is pretty extraordinary. He doesn't lose many finals. No pre-season and zero transfers.
Out of all the PSG managers of the past 12-13 years, he's the only one who reached a CL final. Ancelotti, Emery, Poch and Enrique couldn't.
Kenny Dalglish wouldn't have won The PL title with Blackburn if we didn't draw with West Ham on the final day in 1995. But we did. Bayern won the title and that's that. He beat Dortmund 4-2 in his 1st game in charge. That was a pressure game and he delivered. They were worried that Nagelsmann wasn't going to get over the line. Tuchel did.
He deserves criticism for not doing better in the league this season, but they would have had to match their best ever points tally to stop this Leverkusen team. This had been coming for awhile. Bayern have made a lot of errors since Flick left for the Germany job. There have been a lot of changes at board level.
Nobody said that Tuchel is one of the greatest managers of all time. But he's certainly one of the top 10 currently in the game and I'd take him over ten Hag in a heartbeat.
We hired Mourinho on the back off a car crash 15/16 season at Chelsea and it worked out well for us. We got 2 good seasons out of him. I'd be happy with something similar while INEOS continue to get their shit together behind the scenes.
Who do you want as manager?
