Carragher Calls Tuchel’s Right-Back Decisions ‘Bizarre’ Amid England’s Defensive Crisis
Former England defender Jamie Carragher has harshly criticised manager Thomas Tuchel’s squad planning at the FIFA World Cup 2026. He argues poor choices in the right-back area left the Three Lions short of reliable options when injuries hit. Carragher highlighted that selecting two injury-prone full-backs was a fundamental error. He also questioned the decision to bring in Trevoh Chalobah, who isn’t a natural right-back, rather than a specialist replacement. According to Carragher, this lack of depth exposed England’s defence early in the tournament and could have been avoided with better preparation before kick-off.
