Thomas Tuchel does not start work with England until January 2025, but he has been backed to lead the Three Lions to glory at the next FIFA World Cup to be co-hosted by the United States, Mexico and Canada in 2026.
According to the outgoing interim coach, Tuchel will be inheriting a team capable of winning the title and end the lifetime wait to ‘bring it home’ for the first time since 1966 when England won it on home soil.
“We have all of the tools. We just need to play them in the right order,” Carsley said.
England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford shares Carsley’s sentiments. “There’s definitely new energy, and there’s going to be a lot of competition for places,” the Everton star said.
Pickford added, “You want the best players for England at the right moment, and hopefully, next year, we’ll have that squad ready to win.”
