00:00Away from club football for just a moment, Thomas Tuchel is the New England head coach.
00:06I just wondered what your reaction is to that, do you think he's a good fit for England?
00:10Just to say all the best to Thomas and nothing more. I think if people in charge decide for him,
00:19I think it's because they are convinced and I'm not the one that I can judge if it's right or wrong.
00:26The only thing I can say is all the best to him, he's tough and no more than that.
00:31Some reports that he has been in touch to take some of your staff away,
00:36I don't know what you can say on that and if they do go, can they combine the roles?
00:42I know that one of them has been approached, that is one of the analysts,
00:48and we are quite open to leave people to take their chances in case they want to take it.
00:55The other one, I think Ilario, I heard something but there has not been any approach yet,
01:03so this is the only thing I know.
01:05But as I said, we are open-minded in terms of allowing people to take chances
01:13and also we are happy to keep people that they want to stay and the ones that they want to go, they can go.
