इंग्लैंड के लिए चिंता का कारण है, लेकिन थॉमस ट्यूशेल की रणनीति सर्वोत्तम है | जैकब स्टाइनबर्ग

Draw with a negative Ghana is unlikely to define World Cup campaign, with plans in place for tougher opposition

Not as easy as it looks, is it? After looking as if he had all the answers a week ago, Thomas Tuchel has tumbled into a place Gareth Southgate knew all too well. This is the moment when anxiety rises and selection decision choices are questioned. Tuchel, a newcomer to international football, will have to ignore the noise and keep in mind that this is usually how it goes when England experience their traditional tournament stumble in their second group game.

The inevitable response to Tuesday’s goalless draw with Ghana will be people wondering why Tuchel left their favourite player out of his squad. Top pundits are bemoaning the absence of Trent Alexander-Arnold, Phil Foden, Adam Wharton and Cole Palmer. Not unfairly, there is an argument that England have too many similar types and needed a player to unlock the game at Boston Stadium.
