Bellingham ‘must be more disciplined to save energy’, says Thomas Tuchel
England manager wants midfielder to have more impactTuchel unsure why wingers didn’t ‘dare to take the risk’
Thomas Tuchel believes Jude Bellingham tried to do too much at Euro 2024 and must save his energy for key moments by being more disciplined. England’s new head coach has been honest about where his side can improve and he clearly is not afraid to follow the same path with Bellingham.
The Real Madrid midfielder produced some scintillating moments at the Euros – not least when he saved England from defeat against Slovakia in the last 16 by equalising in stoppage time with an overhead kick – but some of his performances did not meet expectations. Operating mainly as a No 10, Bellingham struggled to connect with Harry Kane and sometimes looked to go it alone.
