As stated before I have always thought that Tuchel has been a great coach.

We can absolutely have a long discussion about his decisions last night…..as we have on X now…

But as I followed the discussions BEFORE the World Cup …where so many pundits said England could win it….

Based on what?

No disrespect to any country, but here are the teams England played under Tuchel:

🇦🇱Albania, 🇱🇻 Latvia, 🇦🇩 Andorra, 🇸🇳 Senegal, 🇷🇸 Serbia, 🏴 Wales, 🇺🇾 Uruguay, 🇯🇵 Japan, 🇳🇿 New Zealand, 🇨🇷 Costa Rica, 🇭🇷 Croatia, 🇬🇭 Ghana, 🇵🇦 Panama, 🇨🇩 DR Congo, 🇲🇽 Mexico, 🇳🇴 Norway, 🇦🇷 Argentina

(Some you played twice)

In which of those game did you think: We will win the World Cup based on this performance?

[Mr J Carroll @FreshSENCO]

@PaulJackson123 @DPJHodges When I saw that injury knew could have an impact!

[Mr J Carroll @FreshSENCO]

Don't really "follow" England and to an extent agree the Tuchel focus is a bit much. However, hasn't he been pretty average during his tenure? Just helped by an easy qualifying group. Norway probably best team he's beat and not seen many compliments about style.

[Mr J Carroll @FreshSENCO]

Tuchel took a winger off for a CB on '72 then in his interview said he didn't understand why the team dropped off 😂

[James Pearce @JamesPearceLFC]

Absolutely crackers that with 95mins on the clock last night England had six defenders out there in Spence, Guehi, Stones, Burn, O’Reilly and Konsa.
Such a cowardly approach.

[Mr J Carroll @FreshSENCO]

This bloke scoring 91 goals in a year took away that he's probably the greatest playmaker in history too.

[Grizz Khan @GrizzKhan]

This is unreal. He’s touching 40. This isn’t a comp of him as a 23 year old against Oviedo. This is a semi final of the World Cup when his team and country needed him. You can only be in awe 🙌🏽🔥

15 July 1799. The Rosetta Stone was found in Egyptian village of Rosetta by French Captain Pierre-François Bouchard. It’s inscribed with 3 versions of a decree issued in Memphis, Egypt in 196 BC during the Ptolemaic dynasty on behalf of King Ptolemy V Epiphanes.

[Antonello Guerrera @antoguerrera]

It’s truly remarkable how many honours Starmer is receiving abroad while he’s been treated so poorly at home. I’ve never seen anything quite like it.

[OptaJoe @OptaJoe]

13 - 🇦🇷 Alexis Mac Allister has played in more @FIFAWorldCup matches without losing than anyone in the competition's history (13).

11 wins
2 draws (both won on penalties)
0 losses

Invincible.

[Mr J Carroll @FreshSENCO]

England could have really done with Jordan last night.

And not to go on again but Tuchel 100% puts Curtis Jones on the pitch whilst he didn't even look at Mainoo.

[Brentford FC @BrentfordFC]

💔

You gave it your all, Jordan!

[Piers Morgan @piersmorgan]

Is Messi playing?

[Piers Morgan @piersmorgan]

This has been a Tuchel tactical masterclass. Take us home, Thomas! 👊👊👊👊

[Dan O'Hagan ⚽️🎙️ @danohagan]

Wayne Rooney’s development as a pundit and analyst is really, really impressive. So much more at ease than he appeared even a year ago.

[barry @BackseatsmanLFC]

Cape Verde held one of the World Cup finalists to a draw and took the other to extra time

[Mr J Carroll @FreshSENCO]

In summary, England got a goal on the break and that was about it.

Played into Argentina's belief there.

Messi.

[Michael Caley @MC_of_A]

one of Benfica's top young talents refusing to sign a new contract so that he can go to Bournemouth is a great crystallizing moment for how much the economics of football have changed in the last decade

[Mr J Carroll @FreshSENCO]

@PaulJackson123 @EssexPR First PM To reverse the immigration trend since Brexit and this loy still think he's the worst? Can't please them...

[Mr J Carroll @FreshSENCO]

@PaulJackson123 Top drawer player.

The landmark Hillsborough Law legislation has now been passed by MPs in the House of Commons.

We would like to reaffirm our enormous admiration, respect and appreciation for all those who have campaigned for the introduction of the Hillsborough Law. The 97, their families and survivors are forever in our thoughts.

This whole (non) "issue" is quite revealing in terms of how A LOT of people view education.

Never mind the fact most people criticising the school for "not providing water in a heat wave" have ignored the fact that is literally what the school was doing!

[Teacher's Manual @UnofficialOA]

I have seen schools where children can ignore instructions from staff with little or no consequence.

It is only a matter of time before their staff leave, they fail their inspection, etc.

The only thing that keeps both students and staff safe is a firm behaviour policy.
