“We need a trophy — it’s as simple as that,” Shearer told The Rest Is Football podcast. “There’s no doubt [Tuchel] has an incredible CV, but this is going to be a very different test for him. It’s a bold move from the FA [Football Association], there’s no doubt about it. You have to win the tournament, that’s what he’s been hired for.
