  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  Tuchel has often spoken about the lack of training sessions with his new team between now and the 2026 World Cup and has imposed a "crash course" on his players this week. He has been clear in demanding a physical, direct style that replicates a typical Premier League team.

• WHAT TUCHEL SAID

  Speaking ahead of Monday's clash against Latvia, Tuchel said: "I need to adapt to the rhythm of international football. The challenge to prepare in three days — with 20 players from 10 or 12 different clubs — one idea of football. I'm not the most patient guy in the world when it comes to that but I will learn and push the players."
