Tuchel insists England should embrace underdog status at 2026 World Cup

Tuchel insists England should embrace underdog status at 2026 World Cup

Thomas Tuchel, the former Chelsea manager, has suggested that England should embrace the underdog status at the 2026 World Cup. Tuchel believes that England should not burden themselves with high expectations, as they have not won the men's World Cup since 1966, despite reaching the finals of the last two European Championships. The German coach reiterated that he is not just collecting the most talented players and warned Jude Bellingham and Phil Foden, two young English talents, that he is not looking to sign them. Tuchel stressed that England should not get carried away with their recent success and should instead focus on playing without the pressure of being one of the favorites.
