“Working closely with Anthony as my assistant coach, we will do everything we can to make England successful and the supporters proud. I want to thank the FA, in particular Mark and John, for their trust and I am looking forward to starting our journey together.”

In a first message to supporters, Tuchel added: "Hi guys, Thomas here, quite nervous as this is my first message as England head coach. I'm at Wembley, where else? That's also a reason to be a bit nervous, I think that's a good thing.
