Thomas Tuchel '100%' committed to leading England to Euro 2028

Thomas Tuchel has emphatically confirmed his 100% commitment to the England managerial role following the team's semi-final exit at the World Cup. Despite the disappointment of a 2-1 defeat to Argentina, the German coach remains focused on leading the Three Lions through to the home Euro 2028 tournament.

Tuchel, who signed a two-year extension in February, believes there is significant room for improvement. He highlighted a recurring disconnect between training ground performances and high-pressure tournament matches, specifically noting a lack of ball control as a major hurdle.

I said after the Norway game that I see a disconnect from what I see in training on a football level, and within the games. I still think we can show how good football players we are. Thomas Tuchel

The manager pointed toward a deeper issue concerning English football's DNA. He expressed concern over the squad's tendency to lose composure and defend leads rather than dictate the tempo, a trend that surfaced during their defeat to Argentina. Tuchel maintained that such defensive habits must be addressed if the team is to secure major silverware.

The FA has reaffirmed its support for the manager as the team prepares for the third-place playoff against France. Tuchel remains optimistic, praising the character of his squad and their performance levels before the momentum shifted in their recent semi-final.
