Tuchel talks about England s training plan, refuses to let players prepare for the Club World Cup, reveals the inside story of Foden s failure

England national team coach Thomas Tuchel showed a tough attitude in the latest roster, including 8 players who are about to participate in the Club World Cup, and made it clear that no players will be allowed to leave the team early. The German coach is working hard to polish the lineup and aiming at the 2026 World Cup championship.

The 26-man roster released this Friday sparked heated discussions, with Brentford striker Ivan Tony's unexpected selection becoming the focus, while Manchester City star Phil Foden and all Manchester United players were not called up. England will play against Andorra on June 5, followed by a friendly match against Senegal at the City Football Stadium on June 10.

The Club World Cup clashes with the national team schedule

Although Tuchel has led the team to defeat Albania and Latvia since taking office, it will face severe challenges next month: five days after a friendly match with Senegal, the Club World Cup will kick off in the United States. In this one-month event, Bayern Munich, played for England captain Harry Kane, will face Auckland City in the opening match. Eight three-Lion internationals including Gallagher, Bellingham, Palmer, Maduaike, Charoba, Colewell and Rees James will also participate. If Trent Alexander Arnold transfers to Real Madrid this summer, he may add another player.

Tuheer made a tough statement

"We had an open and honest discussion,"Tuheer emphasized at the press conference, "The World Cup is only one year left, and this training camp is crucial. If we want to cherish every training opportunity, why do we still need to let people go? What signal will the players leave the team in advance send to the team? "

The iron coach made it clear that this issue's roster will be maintained. In the whole, we promise to allocate the playing time of the participating players: "I have considered letting players who participate in the Club World Cup leave the team early, and I can understand the club's demand for players to rest. But we must give priority to the national team's goals - cultivating team cohesion and friendship with comrades, which requires taking every day seriously. "

Fuden's defeat, insider

Tuchel gave a unique explanation for Foden's defeat. The Manchester City midfielder has been troubled by off-court factors and repeated ankle injuries this season. He has only contributed 15 goals and assists in various competitions, and his condition has declined significantly. But the coach denied his concerns about his condition: "Maybe we are used to his peak performance, so we are so sensitive now. This is just a normal ups and downs in the process of growth, and he needs to regain the joy of football. "

Tuheer revealed that he had spoken with Foden: "No need to question his talent, we will do our best to help him recover. Of course, the key lies in himself. " This statement not only protects the disciples, but also implies a spur. With the collision between the Club World Cup and the national team training, how the Three Lions maintains combat effectiveness under multiple pressures will become a new topic that tests Tuchel's coaching wisdom.
