Tuchel has spoken to Foden and Rashford about poor display

THOMAS TUCHEL has spoken to Phil Foden and Marcus Rashford about their ineffective displays in his first match as England boss, but stressed the pair retain his full belief.

It was a winning start to World Cup qualification but Tuchel still wanted more, including hoping Foden and Rashford would be more “impactful” on the flanks.
