THOMAS TUCHEL apologised for his German passport but insisted it comes with a "British edge".
Former Chelsea gaffer Tuchel, 51, spelt out his affection for England, English football and why he always wanted to come back to live and work here again.
Tuchel was impressive as he laid out his ambition and admitted the only way to convince doubters - and those who say the England boss must be English - is to win matches.
He said: "I am sorry to have a German passport but I can just tell them and maybe the supporters can feel my passion for the Premier League, my passion for the country, how I love to live and work here.
"Everyone has their opinion and I can understand even the opinion I would fancy an English coach more for the English team.
