Palmer, Rice Among England Withdrawals as Gibbs White Returns The latest round of England squad withdrawals has raised more questions than answers about Thomas Tuchel's managerial approach and his relationships with key players.
Cole Palmer, Declan Rice, Kobbie Mainoo, Marcus Rashford, and Tino Livramento have all pulled out of the squad. On the surface, it appears that Tuchel's demands for consistency and fitness are being put to the test.
Palmer, in particular, has struggled with injuries in the past and was recalled to the squad after being left out of the World Cup team.
