00:00England manager Thomas Tuchel has made headlines by leaving Trent Alexander-Arnold out of a 35-man squad
00:10for the final international break before the 2026 World Cup in North America.
00:18The unusually large squad includes five goalkeepers,
00:22signalling Tuchel's intent to assess many options ahead of the tournament.
00:28Tuchel has also handed opportunities to several players, pushing to secure a place on the plane.
00:35Everton midfielder James Garner is rewarded for an impressive season,
00:40while Kobe Mainu returns to the fold following a resurgence at Manchester United as well.
00:46Harry Maguire also joins him from Manchester.
00:50And Crystal Palace's Adam Wharton receives a call-up after strong performances
00:55that have made him a fan favourite for the World Cup this year.
01:00Perhaps the biggest surprise in attack is a call-up for Dominic Calvert-Lewin,
01:05who was selected after an excellent campaign with Leeds United so far,
01:11preferred over Aston Villa's Oli Watkins.
01:14The squad's size reflects Tuchel's plan to split the group into two camps during the break,
01:20allowing him to closely assess certain new players while also managing workload for some more experienced players.
