Thomas Tuchel has axed Cole Palmer, Phil Foden, Harry Maguire and Trent Alexander-Arnold from his World Cup squad. Ivan Toney, who plays in the Saudi Pro League, is the surprise inclusion as a third striker despite Tuchel not watching him play this season. In comments published by the Football Association this morning, he said: “It comes down to who we trust...it is about the energy, trust and connection between the players.”
