The German coach, appointed to end England's decades-long wait for silverware, spent Thursday evening informing players of their fate in a series of calls that left several established internationals reeling. The decisions mark a radical departure from the Gareth Southgate era and underline Tuchel's willingness to trust his own judgment over reputation.\n\nMaguire was the first to break his silence, posting on social media that he was \"shocked and gutted\" after a season he believed cemented his place. The Manchester United defender, who missed Euro 2024 through injury, returned to consistent form but found himself behind Marc Guéhi, Dan Burn, Ezri Konsa, Jarell Quansah, and John Stones in Tuchel's pecking order. His mother, Zoe, added a furious reply: \"You couldn't have done any more. Hold your head high … Disgraceful.\" The omission raises questions about leadership and aerial presence in England's backline, particularly against physical opponents.\n\nThe creative engine room has been gutted by Tuchel's refusal to accommodate Foden and Palmer. Foden's season at Manchester City has been disjointed; he lost his starting role and has struggled to replicate the form that made him a three-tournament regular. Palmer, the Euro 2024 final goalscorer, has been blighted by injuries and failed to shine in the last international window against Japan. Morgan Gibbs-White, despite a late-season surge for Nottingham Forest, also misses out. Tuchel appears to be banking on Jude Bellingham, Eberechi Eze, and Morgan Rogers to provide the spark in the No 10 roles, but the absence of Foden and Palmer strips the squad of proven creative depth and could leave England overly reliant on Bellingham's individual brilliance.\n\nThe most eyebrow-raising name in the squad is Toney, who has not featured for England since a friendly defeat to Senegal last June. The former Brentford man, now plying his trade at Al-Ahli in Saudi Arabia, was considered an outsider but has been chosen to back up Harry Kane alongside Ollie Watkins. Tuchel's decision to overlook Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Dominic Solanke, and Danny Welbeck suggests he values Toney's physicality and penalty-box instincts, yet the risk is clear: a player operating outside the elite European leagues may lack the sharpness required for a World Cup.\n\nMidfield was another area of tough choices. Adam Wharton's late-season form at Crystal Palace was not enough to convince Tuchel, who instead recalled Kobbie Mainoo after the teenager reclaimed his place at Manchester United. Declan Rice and Elliot Anderson are expected to form the starting pivot, with Jordan Henderson adding a veteran presence despite his advancing years. The decision to include Mainoo over Wharton signals a preference for ball-carrying ability in tight spaces, but it also places immense pressure on a youngster with only a handful of senior caps.\n\nOn the flanks, Bukayo Saka and Noni Madueke have edged out Jarrod Bowen for the right-wing spots, while Marcus Rashford and Anthony Gordon have beaten Harvey Barnes on the left. All four possess pace and directness, aligning with Tuchel's reported desire for quick transitions. However, the lack of a traditional playmaker in wide areas may force England into a more counter-attacking style, a tactical shift that will be scrutinized if the team struggles to break down deep blocks.\n\nDefensively, the squad is a mix of experience and untested potential. Reece James and Tino Livramento are included despite ongoing fitness concerns, with Livramento nursing a thigh injury. The left-back berth is likely to go to Manchester City's Nico O'Reilly, with Arsenal's Myles Lewis-Skelly pushing after a strong end to the campaign. The complete absence of Luke Shaw, Trent Alexander-Arnold, and Lewis Hall reflects Tuchel's ruthlessness but also eliminates key set-piece takers and crossers. John Stones, with only four appearances since Christmas, and James's checkered fitness record loom as major vulnerabilities.\n\nEngland's tournament preparation begins with a training camp in Florida, followed by friendlies against New Zealand in Tampa on 6 June and Costa Rica in Orlando on 10 June. Tuchel's men then head to Kansas City before opening their World Cup campaign against Croatia in Dallas on 17 June in Group L. Drawn as one of the tournament favorites, the pressure is immense, and these bold selection calls only heighten the scrutiny. Tuchel, who has extended his contract through Euro 2028, is betting that freshness and tactical clarity can finally end the nation's trophy drought.\n\nThe squad bears the hallmarks of a manager unafraid to provoke debate. By discarding popular figures like Maguire, Foden, and Palmer, Tuchel has signaled that no one is untouchable. Yet the gamble is enormous: if England falters, the decision to leave behind proven performers will be picked apart. For now, all eyes turn to Wembley, where Tuchel will face the media this morning to explain his vision for a squad that, on paper, looks as daring as it is divisive.\n\nBased on reporting from The Guardian.","news","Tuchel drops Foden, Palmer, Maguire from England's 26-man World Cup squad, recalling Ivan Toney after a year out.
