Thomas Tuchel’s England era has begun, with a World Cup qualifier against Albania offering a first look at his tactical vision.

Did his attacking, high-intensity approach deliver? His experienced lineup raised questions—was it the right call? With Latvia up next, what changes might he make?

Tuchel’s leadership is already making waves, from his stance on Rashford and Foden to his focus on squad chemistry. He demands intensity, urging players to take responsibility. Jordan Henderson’s recall highlights this shift, ensuring England’s leadership isn’t shouldered by one player.
