00:00The Football Association's decision to appoint Thomas Tuchel as the New England coach will
00:04be regarded by many as a betrayal of the much-touted pathway from the national team's headquarters
00:10at St George's Park to the top and an insult to the home-grown managerial talent.
00:17German Tuchel will succeed Gareth Southgate, who held the post for eight years after coaching
00:22England's under-21 team for a three-year spell.
00:25Tuchel's arrival is a radical and significant diversion from the route laid out by the FA's
00:31so-called DNA mantra, delivered a decade ago by Dan Ashworth.
00:36The FA's move will be controversial and contentious, but few can argue against the fact they have
00:42appointed one of the great modern coaches an operator of the highest calibre.
00:47He'll be the third foreigner to manage the nation in its history and if he delivers,
00:52the FA can stand firm as it could put an end to the success that's eluded them since 1966.
