Thomas Tuchel’s reign as England manager will be defined by whether his hands are around the World Cup at MetLife Stadium, New Jersey, but his time in charge is fast-becoming the era of brutal honesty.

The England boss, who is preparing his side to face Senegal in a friendly on Tuesday, has told his players “everyone is beatable” and he believes they will raise their game when required. “The level will increase immediately once we are in Munich at the stadium and playing against Portugal or Spain,” said Tuchel.

Thomas Tuchel has warned his England squad he won't "sugarcoat" his assessment of performances after criticising aspects of the win over Andorra.
