Premier League winner Christian Fuchs on what Claudio Ranieri and Brendan Rodgers taught him, life coaching at Charlotte FC... and why he believes MLS is underrated

When Christian Fuchs hung up his boots in January and slid over from Charlotte FC's first team to its coaching staff the Austrian international had a wealth of playing experience to draw from.

There was his time under Thomas Tuchel at Mainz, stints under Ralf Rangnick and Roberto Di Matteo at Schalke and of course, his role in Leicester's shocking title triumph in 2015-16 with Claudio Ranieri.

But when Fuchs looks back at his coaching influences throughout the years, his mind goes far past pressing or five-man back lines.
