"Tuchel will digest the food for thought that England's friendlies have given him as he finalises his plans. He will then make his picks - but for now this is my 26-man England squad to take to the World Cup."
"England's spine will be familiar trusted lieutenants of both Tuchel and his predecessor Sir Gareth Southgate, such as goalkeeper Jordan Pickford, and Manchester City's Marc Guehi alongside club-mate John Stones if fit."
"Ezri Konsa has proved he is perfectly at home at international level and is likely to start alongside Guehi if Stones does not make it."
England's head coach Thomas Tuchel concluded the 'Send-Off Series' with a loss to Japan. He named a 35-man squad for friendlies against Uruguay and Japan, aiming to narrow it down to 26 for the World Cup. Key players include Jordan Pickford, Declan Rice, and Harry Kane, forming a strong core. Tuchel will consider performances from the friendlies as he finalizes his selections for the opening match against Croatia on June 17 in Arlington, Texas.
