England manager Thomas Tuchel has said Jude Bellingham has proven that he has to be in the squad. He recently shared that the midfielder’s edge can help the English prefect win the World Cup.
According to him, he does not have any personal issue with the Real Madrid player, and he actually appreciates the edge he displays during matches.
Tuchel added that footballers need a certain level of doggedness to thrive in the England national team.
His words, “There is no problem with him, there is no problem with the character.
Jude just has the edge, it is a very good thing because you need a certain edge to reach the heights that he reached and I think we all need to help him and encourage him and create an environment which he can live this edge towards the opponents and towards the goals we are building as a team.
Now they are coming back, Phil and Jude, the message is now, ‘Make sure you keep this thing going and make sure you accelerate the thing because we have something going here, we are building something, we are super-excited that you are back’. The message is — contribute to it.
“The second goal [for City] against Dortmund is for me a key trademark Phil Foden goal. So he comes and supports Harry [Kane] more or less, plays maybe for Harry or whatever, in the 9 and a half-ish role,”
WOW.
