Fans beg Thomas Tuchel to use England star in his ‘correct position’ following incredible training footage

England fans are pleading with Thomas Tuchel to play one player in his 'correct position' after new training footage emerged.

Tuchel will take charge of his first match as Three Lions manager on Friday, when England host Albania in a World Cup qualifier at Wembley.

The German's starting XI selection is one of the most eagerly-anticipated in recent memory after he named his 26-man squad for the matches against Albania and Latvia.

There are plenty of familiar faces in the setup, with Jordan Henderson among those recalled to add further experience to the ranks.

On the other end of the scale, Myles Lewis-Skelly, Morgan Rogers and Tino Livramento are among those hoping to earn the first of what they hope will be many Three Lions caps.

There will also be much intrigue about Manchester City star Phil Foden.

The attacking midfielder has not found consistent form for England for a considerable amount of time, with previous boss Gareth Southgate often preferring to utilise him on the left side of attack.

Foden has also been used on the right and in a slightly deeper midfield role, as well as his favoured number 10 position.

And after seeing footage of the City star in training, fans are desperate for Tuchel to deploy Foden in what they say to be his 'correct' position if he does get the nod to start on Friday.

The footage shows Foden and fellow midfielder Eberechi Eze attempting keepie-uppies before launching long passes to each other on the volley. At the end of the clip, Foden curls an effort into the bottom corner of the net.

Reacting to the clip, posted on TikTok, one fan wrote: "Just play Foden in his correct position."

A second said: "Foden is just too technical."

And a third added: "Foden is underrated, one season can't change the fact he is a star."

A fourth wrote: "Foden and Eze are playing like they're Brazilian."

Another, meanwhile, took a slightly different view: "Put Foden in that Spain team and you will see a serious player."
