"I guess so, why not? Of course, he's [Bellingham] an important player, he's a big player. I will speak to a lot of players. To the guys who were not in camp, they will get texts from me - especially them. The guys who are now here have the reward, they feel the reward and it's now necessary also I stay in touch with the other guys."
"This is how it has to be and I have trust in more players than [those] here. We always speak about the same names [outside the squad] but we have Conor Gallagher, we have Trevoh Chalobah, we have Cole Palmer injured and a lot of other guys out there who deserve to be with us and are hungry and determined to be with us."
England secured World Cup qualification with a 5-0 win over Latvia in Riga, achieving six wins from six qualifying matches. England have not conceded a goal in competitive games under Thomas Tuchel. The Latvia victory occurred without Jude Bellingham, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Phil Foden and Cole Palmer. Thomas Tuchel will contact many players omitted from the latest squad, sending texts to those not in camp and staying in touch with the others. Exclusion from the squad is not a punishment; competition for places is a central principle and Tuchel expresses trust in players beyond the current group, including Conor Gallagher and Trevoh Chalobah, while Cole Palmer is injured. Tuchel views winning the World Cup as a possibility but places emphasis on continued progress and competition.
