Tim Walter says he is 'made in Germany, made for England'.
The challenge for Hull City's new coach will be to merge a style which excited chairman Acun Ilicali with substance, and which the man himself thinks is ideal for his new surroundings. The German met the media for the first time ahead of his official appointment as the club's new coach on July 1. 'I was made in Germany but I'm made for England,' he said. 'Our wishes fit perfecty and I'm looking forward to being the new coach of Hull City.
'We are not talking about only style, we are talking about a successful points average with successful expected goals numbers,' said Ilicali. 'After that, the football is entertaining. 'Football style comes before that. 'I want to clarify, first is to have a successful team and we prefer his style of play. That's why it happened like this.' The Turkish media mogul had the numbers ot back up his assertion. 'Tim has an average of 1.82 points ,' he said.
