Rooney says Maguire was unlucky to miss Tuchel's England World Cup squad

He notes Tuchel’s decision to pick Dan Burn over Maguire as a key call, backs Tuchel’s overall squad-building approach, and discusses how Jude Bellingham, Morgan Rogers, and Ivan Toney fit into the plan behind Harry Kane, with Toney’s recall adding goal-scoring options for the tournament.

Tuchel recalls Ivan Toney as England's Kane back-up for World Cup

Thomas Tuchel has recalled Ivan Toney to England's World Cup squad as a back-up to Harry Kane, citing Toney's proven finishing and goal threat from both the Premier League and Saudi Pro League (32 goals in 32 league games and 55 in 62 Saudi matches) and his suitability to chase games and be a dangerous presence in the box. Toney, who last played for England almost a year ago and featured at Euro 2024, impressed with his late Euro 2024 substitute appearances and a pivotal penalty in the shootout vs Switzerland; his recall comes after strong feedback from his Al-Ahli coach and underscores Tuchel's gamble to strengthen England's attack for the tournament opener vs Croatia.
