00:00The pressure on Thomas Tuchel. The three Lions breezed through qualification for the World Cup, winning all of their eight
00:09games without conceding a goal.
00:12But after losing 1-0 to Japan, the world's 18th ranked side at Wembley in England's last match before, Tuchel
00:22names his World Cup squad.
00:24Questions about whether the three Lions struggle when they come up against lower-ranked opposition have now been asked.
00:36After the loss at Wembley, which saw Japan become the first Asian side to beat England in history, Newcastle winger
00:45Anthony Gordon will be hoping he's done enough to secure a flight on the plane for the World Cup.
00:51Here's what he had to say after the game.
00:55Yeah, they're a very good team. The kind of match-up that I think we'll come across in the World
00:59Cup. Very disciplined, had a great defensive block, hard to break down.
01:03Good test for us, not the end of the world. We've had good preparation and we've had more.
01:08On the days off, you're kind of just away from it, you're mentally sort of checked out, you're enjoying it
01:11with your family.
01:12Once you're back on camp, you're right back to it. It's intense, you're right back into the training. It's just
01:17camp as normal from there.
01:18So, I can't remember the last days off I had, to be honest, with the Champions League, with the Cups.
01:22We had quite long cup runs, so I definitely needed days off and I'm very grateful for the manager for
01:27that.
