🚨🗣️ 𝗡𝗘𝗪: Gary Neville has hit back at Thomas Tuchel's claim that England don't have the "DNA" to control possession.
"I have a big problem with that. He didn't bring Kobbie Mainoo on, who could handle the ball better than most. He didn't bring Bukayo Saka on, who could probably handle the ball better than most.
But he also left Phil Foden, Cole Palmer, Adam Wharton, Morgan Gibbs-White and Trent Alexander-Arnold at home, technical players. He's left out what would be generational talents."
🚨🔴⚪️ Jhon Durán to Benfica, here we go! Deal done for Colombian forward to join on loan with buy option clause not mandatory.
Durán rejected two UCL clubs as he prefers Benfica project/chance to play under Marco Silva.
Salary shared with Al Nassr, medical this weekend. 🦅🇨🇴
🚨 NEW: The use of Mainoo has been a particularly big talking point. He struggled to hide his disappointment as the matches slipped past without him being called upon and his forlorn trudges through post-match mixed zones — he was often one of the first players back onto the bus — became an unhappy feature of England’s tournament.
One source connected to the squad wondered if Tuchel considered the 21-year-old a youngster who would be happy to simply be part of a World Cup squad; others felt the Manchester United midfielder had simply not done enough to earn his trust. Either way, it was never clear what Tuchel’s plan was for the player. Instead, Mainoo saw Reece James being played in midfield instead of him towards the end of the tournament and failed to get minutes even when Rice was clearly struggling for fitness, despite a source close to the camp insisting he had trained well.

England’s golden generation: Ignored technical midfielders in Scholes and Carrick for the all-action powerhouses Lampard and Gerrard.
England in 2026: Ignored the technical midfielder in Kobbie Mainoo for the all-action powerhouses in Rice and Anderson.
Both failed miserably.
Absolutely disgusting that Tuchel is still in a job now. Get him out and get him out now. The man is a failure, a fraud and is responsible for one of the biggest collapses in English football history. If he had even a modicum of principle or care for this country he would walk.
🚨🏴 The FA plans to continue with Thomas Tuchel as England head coach for next Euros.
No changes after defeat vs Argentina as the intention is to continue together.

Criminal subs. Cowardly approach from Tuchel. Pathetic. That should have been a historic victory, instead, because of this gutless manager it’s going down as a monumental, agonising defeat. Tuchel should reign tonight, total fraud.
