Thomas Tuchel addressed claims Jude Bellingham did not fully embrace England’s collective after being substituted for Morgan Rogers, saying any impression of individual frustration is a bad look when camp messages stress unity, shared sacrifice and acceptance of tough decisions during a crowded international schedule. Tuchel said he would review footage but believes everyone celebrated Harry Kane’s goals together, stressing that both Bellingham and Rogers want to play every minute yet must accept rotation. He repeated that behaviour is key and that players must handle in game choices without public displays of dissent.

Kane backs Tuchel’s “aura” to push England toward World Cup glory

Harry Kane believes Thomas Tuchel’s presence and aura can give England a crucial mental edge as they chase World Cup success, praising the manager he previously worked with at Bayern Munich after a perfect qualifying run with seven wins from seven in Group K. Kane highlighted Tuchel’s big-club pedigree with Borussia Dortmund, Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea, saying England already feel different since he replaced Gareth Southgate after Euro 2024. With twenty goals scored and none conceded in qualifying, he sees Sunday’s Albania match as a final tune-up before next summer’s tournament.
