THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Tuchel acknowledged Rashford’s impact at Villa but also delivered a firm message regarding his consistency as he emphasised the importance of maintaining his current form and avoiding slipping into his previous rut.</p><p>"I felt that he had a huge impact at Aston Villa, mostly from the bench," he told reporters. "The impact was impressive. The physical impact was impressive and most importantly, his work rate, his defensive ability and tracking back was impressive. I had the strong feeling that we should nominate him, bring him in and to push him to stay on that level to not fall back on old routines."</p>

However, there was no place for Morgan Gibbs-White or Jack Grealish, who have both missed out.</p>

<p>Tuchel’s first assignment as England boss will be guiding the team through 2026 World Cup qualifiers against Albania on March 21 and Latvia on March 24. </p>
