Tuchel was always going to face scrutiny with whatever squad he picked, but his surprise selection for his World Cup players made headlines as much for those that weren't selected, as those that were. Phil Foden, Cole Palmer, Trent Alexander- Arnold and Harry Maguire were all significant omissions, but the England manager defended his choices when he faced the media. "I think from day one, we were very clear that we are trying to select and build the best possible team, which is not necessarily to select and collect the 26 most talented players," he said. "Teams win championships - it's as simple as that - and what we are trying to achieve in summer can only be achieved as a team."
