Thomas Tuchel Focuses on Building a 'Team' Not a 'Team of Stars'! Reasons for Excluding England's Jadon Sancho, Phil Foden, and Jack Grealish 🧐

Hello, everyone! ⚽️ Today, I've brought some truly exciting football news. I found myself quite intrigued by these developments. Reports have emerged that Thomas Tuchel, the manager of the England national team, has decided to exclude some of England's current football 'stars' such as Jadon Sancho, Phil Foden, and Jack Grealish from the squad. 😲

Tuchel's Belief in Building a 'Team' Over a 'Collection of Stars'

Following the friendly match against Wales on October 8th (local time), Thomas Tuchel has solidified his decision. He stressed, "England is not a team that collects stars, but rather a team that must be 'built' as one entity," clearly indicating that he prioritizes teamwork and organization over individual player reputations. 🗣️

Indeed, England achieved a resounding 5-0 victory against Serbia last month and is preparing for the next phase in a positive atmosphere. However, despite this win, Tuchel appears to have judged that creating a 'true team' where all players move organically, rather than centering the team around star players, is more crucial for long-term success.

Is it Okay to Exclude the 'Stars'?

Many fans are likely wondering, "Will it be alright to exclude such exceptional players?" Despite these concerns, Tuchel is said to be further strengthening the team's belief in the necessity of winning big matches. This can be interpreted as a focus not just on trimming the squad, but also on enhancing the motivation and mental fortitude of the entire team. This approach feels refreshing in football, where the mental game is so important. 🤔

What About News from Other Teams?

Meanwhile, other football news is also capturing attention. Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag is reportedly receiving strong support from co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe. Ratcliffe has defended Ten Hag, stating, "I will not give in to impulsive decisions." 🤝

There are also reports of a potential return for former Rangers manager Steven Gerrard, with a meeting scheduled with club executives in London. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

News concerning Chelsea cannot be omitted either. Various details are said to be covered, including the timing of Cole Palmer's return from injury and his recovery process, plans for the January transfer window, the truth behind Reece James' withdrawal from the England squad, and the club's vision for 'elite prospects.' 🔵

In addition, it has been reported that Nottingham Forest has made a decision regarding manager Ange Postecoglou, with speculation suggesting his position is becoming increasingly precarious amidst fan pressure.
