Why the German Sheriff is instilling fears in England players

Thomas Tuchel's men may have delivered two wins for in his two official matches, but they did not all earn his approval because the German is on the clock, which  is ticking, because the World Cup final is less than 16 months away in New Jersey. Neither is he taking any prisoners nor any passengers.

The 2-0 victory over Albania with the encouraging debut from Myles Lewis- Skelly though short on inspiration, even as

Tuchel acknowledged the Arsenal teenager's excellence and the class of Jude Bellingham, which was followed by 3-0 Victory over Latvia.

He had identified  One shortcoming in England's play under Gareth Southgate which was a lack of freedom, and, in the emasculated performance of his wide players at Wembley on Friday night, he discovered that they were still not able to liberate themselves from caution he detest..


Phil Foden was taking the safe option and feinting to take a player on then checking, cutting back and playing the ball back  to Curtis Jones or Declan Rice. Though, Marcus Rashford was more direct and more bold, but not bold enough for the German .

From his statement after the match, you could deduce that he hopes for more  impact More dribbling and more aggression in these positions,' because  In general, that was missing. Even The chances come from the little runs behind the line, not as decisive as they can be. too much passing, not enough dribbling, not aggressive enough towards goal.'

Many enthusiastic fans see the German as one who is trying to invoke the golden age of wide play when wingers like John Barnes, Chris Waddle, Peter Barnes, Steve Coppell and Gordon Hill hurtled down England's flanks and cut their crosses back from the goal-line for old-fashioned Strikers to dispatch with rexkkess abandon, little wonder, he saved so much of his energy lamenting after England's 2-0 win over Albania as Tuchel was talking, essentially, about end product.

Meanwhile, Part of the solution for what he craves for should be available to him soon in the person of  Bukayo Saka the best wide player in the Premier League.
