Thomas Tuchel has been accused of 'leaving a path of destruction' in his previous jobs, with the England boss reminded that he will live or die by his results at the World Cup.
Tuchel's First Major Tournament
The German will take charge of his first major international tournament this summer, with the Three Lions beginning their efforts against Croatia next week. Tuchel enjoyed an impressive qualifying phase, but questions remain given the calibre of opponents he had to beat.
Tuchel has already landed himself a new deal, taking him well beyond this World Cup, as the FA underlined their faith in the ex-Chelsea boss without seeing him on the grand stage.
Troy Deeney's Criticism
Troy Deeney admires his ability to make tough calls, which is underlined by some of his squad selections with several big names left at home. But the ex-Watford man also admits that the FA may have gone early on Tuchel, whilst his record at causing division is well documented.
He said on CBS Sports: 'I like that about him, he's willing to make those harsh calls and decisions. The problem for me is that we gave him an extension before we've seen what he's going to do.'
'He was brought in on an 18-month contract to win the World Cup. That was the remit - get this team to the final and win it. He's one of those people that doesn't mind rocking the boat. Phil Foden and Cole Palmer - massive calls in terms of not even having them in the squad.'
'He will be judged on if he wins it or how we go out. He's a good coach, for me, personally, he leaves a path of destruction everywhere he's been. He is argumentative, but he is a winner.'
Previous Club Exits
Tuchel has been at the likes of PSG, Chelsea and Bayern Munich - where his exits have often attracted widespread attention. The German has never been shy in taking on those above him to get what he wants.
In Paris he called out the hierarchy for their retention policy, saying they 'lose too many players on free transfers'. Tuchel, shortly before leaving Bayern, claimed 'I don't think I am the only problem' at the German club.
Last year, after a win over Wales at Wembley, he said: 'The stadium was silent. We didn't get any energy back from the stands. We did everything to win.' Tuchel made it clear he expected more from the England fans.
