Thomas Tuchel targets ‘more enthusiasm’ from England against Andorra
Tuchel promises different England after lackluster performances
- Thomas Tuchel likened the challenge of breaking down Andorra's defence to "chewing gum" and urged England to play with more energy and enthusiasm than in their narrow 1-0 win in June.
- England will face Andorra in a World Cup qualifier at Villa Park on Saturday, before travelling to Serbia for another match on Tuesday.
- Tuchel confirmed that captain Harry Kane will start against Andorra and stated he will select the strongest possible team, not resting players for the subsequent Serbia fixture.
- The England manager noted Andorra's well-drilled 5-4-1 formation and their long-serving coach, anticipating a disciplined defensive challenge.
- John Stones withdrew from the squad due to a minor muscle issue, while Marc Guehi remains available despite a recent deadline-day transfer move to Liverpool being halted.
