Thomas Tuchel on England's mistake: why the Premier League style won't work at the World Cup.

Match analysis between England and Wales

According to The Sun: Thomas Tuchel has always wanted the England team to play at the level of Premier League teams.

Finally, we witnessed a team playing fast and aggressively, demonstrating this during a friendly match against Wales. The game ended 3-0, continuing the 5-0 victory over Serbia last month.

England has the opportunity to secure qualification for the World Cup on Tuesday in a match in Latvia, if Serbia does not win against Albania.

Despite some comments from Tuchel about the fans at 'Wembley', he was generally in a good mood and even gave his players and staff a day off.

He commented on the start of the game:

“We are moving in the right direction, 100 percent. In Serbia, it looked like club football, just like against Wales.”

Tuchel wants to see a style of play that is familiar to most players, as they play in the Premier League, which is physically demanding and fast.

The first 20 minutes of the match against Wales vividly demonstrated this, as Tuchel's team overwhelmed their opponents.

Challenges facing Tuchel

However, Tuchel faces significant challenges: the World Cup, which will take place next summer in the USA, Canada, and Mexico, will present various temperature and logistical difficulties for the players.

Playing in temperatures above 30 degrees will be difficult.

Tuchel emphasized that playing like a Premier League team will not solve all problems.

Conditions at some stadiums during the World Cup will be the same for all teams.

However, teams that can control the game and focus on ball possession will have a better chance of success.

The England manager spent a week in a training camp in the Spanish city of Girona before the qualifying match against Andorra, but this may not have been the best decision.

After a busy season, the players did not want to leave the country for another week, and the team narrowly won the match against Andorra, then lost to Senegal.

In June, after the Premier League season ends, England will not play any home games.

Tuchel has planned a training camp in Florida with two friendly matches.

Players participating in the Champions League final will join the team later.

Future plans

Friendlies against Uruguay and Japan at 'Wembley' are scheduled for March, but these plans may change depending on the World Cup draw.

“I felt the guys and the team deserved a bit more energy, and in the second half they could have helped us.”

After a day spent with their families, the players regrouped at Tottenham's training ground to prepare for the match in Riga.

Next month, Tuchel will host a home match against Serbia and then the last group K match in Tirana against Albania. This marks almost a year since his appointment as coach.

The World Cup draw will take place in Washington on December 5.

Ahead of the draw, it is particularly important for the team to focus on training and preparation for upcoming matches.
