TUCHEL SEEKS MORE FROM FODEN AND RASHFORD IN THE NEXT MATCH – 

Rashford and Foden were substituted in the second half of the 2-0 win over Albania 

Thomas Tuchel has held constructive discussions with Marcus Rashford and Phil Foden after criticising their minimal impact on the wings against Albania, the England coach said on Sunday (March 23) ahead of their next World Cup qualifier against Latvia.

Both Rashford and Foden were substituted in the second half of Friday’s 2-0 win over Albania at Wembley Stadium where they were largely peripheral figures, with Tuchel demanding more aggressive runs towards the box.

Tuchel said Foden needed to build better connections with the midfield while Rashford had been unlucky with the timing of his runs. Tuchel gave no clues as to who would start against Latvia on Monday but suggested some fresh players could come in.
