Jordan Pickford

When you named the squad, you did talk about the intention to rotate the team during the group stages.

There's obviously been a lot of talk about what your starting line-up will be for the first match, but should we be expecting that?

First to be involved in a World Cup.

And I just wonder, you know, when you were maybe 12 years old...

whether you would have thought, all these years later, managing England at a World Cup?

I feel duty-bound to ask you before the first match, what do you think the chances are of putting another star on the England shirt?

So, yeah, Thomas Tuchel speaking about calling up Trevor Chalabar in place of Tino Livramento.

And it's a slightly odd call because Chalabar is a centre-back.

Can you explain his thinking?

We're probably talking about bringing in someone who will be the 26th man.

It might well be.

He gets on the field.

But he knows Chalaba well.

He knows him from Chelsea.

I think I've got a feeling he gave him his debut at Chelsea.

So I think that plays into it.

We covered the match the other day, didn't we, with Netherlands and Japan.

Japan lost a player and brought in an attacking player, lost a defender in Endo and brought in an attacking player as the replacement.

So I think there is a feeling that you want to bring in the best man for those set of circumstances.

Nevertheless, I can totally understand why people would say, why isn't it Trent Alexander-Arnold?
