‘He can be one of the best in the world’
Head coach cautious over Bellingham
Thomas Tuchel believes Marcus Rashford can still become one of the best in the world, but the England head coach has warned he will end up with regrets unless he pushes himself to the limit and improves in the final third.
Tuchel, who also cautiously opened the door to Jude Bellingham being part of England’s leadership group if the midfielder returns to the squad, pulled no punches as he discussed Rashford’s development in the leadup to the World Cup qualifier against Latvia in Riga on Tuesday night. England’s head coach said potential is not enough and made clear that the challenge for the 27-year-old, who has 18 goals in 64 international appearances, is to become more consistent.
“That is the headline for him,” Tuchel said.“To keep on pushing himself to the limit. The limit for him is very, very high. Maybe higher than for others. He has the potential, but potential is a dangerous word with high-level sports.
