  • WHAT TUCHEL SAID

    Tuchel explained his playing style, as per talkSPORT: "Hopefully adventurous. Hopefully we will play attacking football and we will make the players shine. So this is it and it should be exciting to watch the group, that you feel the group and the excitement in the group. And we will try for that."

    Tuchel also explained that he plans to spend plenty of time at St George's Park, adding: "I mean, this is our home, this is our base. So I will be there. Otherwise, we cannot create an atmosphere that is needed over the course of the 18 or 20 months that we have together now. So this will be a very regular home for me. And I'm happy we have excellent infrastructure and we will use it."
