Notable squad cuts: The FIFA World Cup 2026 squad announced by Thomas Tuchel was noticeable for its glaring lack of some established star players.
Several household names were completely left out of the traveling party heading to North America.
Maguire left out: Harry Maguire had regularly played for England as a defensive bedrock under previous management and was a leader in the dressing room.
However, Tuchel opted for a complete tactical refresh at the back, leaving the experienced defender out of his plans.
Foden misses out: Phil Foden was previously a mainstay in the side and widely considered one of the nation's most naturally gifted attacking talents.
