Thomas Tuchel’s World Cup Blunder Exposed, But Snubbed England Star’s Unexpected Reaction Shocks Fans
It’s fair to say there were a few fans exhibiting feelings of disgruntlement when England boss Thomas Tuchel announced his squad for this summer’s World Cup.
Manchester United centre-back Harry Maguire, for one, was left “shocked and gutted” by his omission, having been included by the German head coach for the previous March international camp.
Another eyebrow-raiser was the inclusion of 35-year-old Jordan Henderson, who has started just over half of Brentford’s games in the Premier League this season.

We all know that for a perfect international squad, a mix of experience and youthfulness is required – Henderson adding plenty of the former, with his 88 Three Lions caps – but he hasn’t appeared in a major international tournament since 2022, left out by Gareth Southgate at Euro 2024.
However, it’s less about what Henderson can offer and more about the talent that his taken seat leaves peering through the plane window.
