Earlier this week, the FA appointed former Chelsea and Bayern Munich boss Tuchel on an 18-month contract until after the 2026 World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico. The German will take over from Lee Carsley starting on January 1, 2025, and will face his first challenge in the spring's World Cup qualifiers.
Getty Images SportWHAT WALKER SAID
Speaking on the BBC podcast ‘You’ll Never Beat Kyle Walker’, Walker said: "I can understand the English public thinking it should be an English manager taking control of the national team.
"But for me it’s about who is going to get the results, he has proven at big clubs that he can manage big players with big characters, the likes of PSG, he went to Chelsea and won the Champions League against Manchester City, that is one that sticks firmly in my mind.
"It is a great appointment and it is an even better appointment if he puts me in the team again! I think it is a great appointment but the proof is in the pudding, we need to do it as a set of players."
