Former England midfielder Paul Scholes has backed Thomas Tuchel to get it right with England because he has the aura of a winner.

However, Scholes believes neither yet has the proven track record to compete with Tuchel. Scholes said: “I think they would be able to do it, but they don’t have the credentials.
They won’t have the same presence, like Thomas Tuchel. “England are good until they play a good team. Thomas Tuchel, he’s proven. “The paths England have had to get through to finals has been quite simple.
