3 w. ago Tuchel still searches for England’s conductor as Bellingham boils over | Jacob Steinberg

Substitution of Real Madrid star against Latvia shows head coach does not prioritise individuals over the teamEveryone wants to have the ball when Latvia come to town. Everyone fancies the chance to take an extra touch. Everyone wants to be the star. Nobody seems to realise that slowing the play down is exactly what Latvia want as they settle into their rearguard action and focus on little more than keeping England out.It is a familiar problem for England. Thomas Tuchel has spoken about playing with intensity, about tapping into the aggression of the Premier League, about his team imposing their will on opponents. The challenge did not lie in defeating Latvia, but rather in how victory was achieved. Standards had to go up after a solid but unremarkable opening World Cup qualifying win against Albania. Tuchel is demanding. Tuchel will ask for more. Tuchel will not shy away from trying to rein in Jude Bellingham when the midfielder allows the unfocused, petulant version of himself to ...

3 w. ago Jordan Henderson: ‘I looked at how far it was to Berlin and I hired a van’

Recalled England midfielder discusses his last-minute dash, as a fan, to the Euro 2024 final – and his World Cup dreamJordan Henderson wanted to be part of it. He felt he deserved to be part of it. And so, despite the obstacles, he put in the hard yards to make it happen. It has been a theme of the Ajax midfielder’s career and it resonates once again with him back in the England squad, winning his 81st cap as a substitute in Thomas Tuchel’s first game as head coach – the 2-0 World Cup qualifying win over Albania on Friday night. The more sideways take on it came last summer.Henderson was devastated to have been overlooked by Gareth Southgate for Euro 2024 in Germany, having been involved throughout qualification. The determining factor was the muscle injury he picked up last March, which sidelined him for the best part of two months and did not give him the time to get fully fit at the end of the domestic season. That was how Southgate sold it, anyway. Continue reading...

3 w. ago Rashford could be more important to Tuchel’s England than Palmer or Saka | Jonathan Wilson

One Harry Kane pass to his fellow forward in otherwise routine win over Albania gives a hint of how England could succeedOne of the problems of international football is that everybody is always asking the wrong question, which to an extent is built into the form. Qualifiers matter only in as much as they have to be negotiated. Friday’s win by England over Albania fell into a very familiar pattern. The brave new world of Thomas Tuchel turned out to look a lot like the faded old world of Gareth Southgate. England had lots of the ball, did not move it fast enough and won by a couple of goals. It does not matter. They could have won 10-0, 8-5 or 1-0 and it would mean almost nothing in terms of the winning of the World Cup.England want to win the World Cup next summer. They have a squad that should make them challengers. Barring pratfalls, there will come a point next year when they will play an Argentina or a Spain or a France, a team of equivalent or greater talent and, almost certain...
