OverDrive · de Guzman on the FIFA World Cup, the semifinal matches and England looking to make a statement · 13 Jul 2026 podcast

So it's great from him, to be honest.

I think it's a good approach going into a very important match.

Again, another hard match against a team like Argentina.

So he wants to keep the guys sharp.

He wants to keep them honest.

And I think this is a good way to maybe push the culture into a different direction, you know,

When England wins and they get this far, they typically over-celebrate and then they can't get over the line, right?

So maybe they do need this push from a guy like Thomas Tuchel to get it over the line and get themselves to the finals and finally win something since 1966.

The other thing to discuss is

there hasn't been a country to have won the World Cup with a foreign coach.

So this is also an interesting approach where this could be game-changing for the entire country itself if there's success that comes with this.

And you can only imagine how much of an impact a guy like Thomas Tuchel could be for the English game.

Listen, it's entertainment.

It involves the world.

I mean, I look at it on two ways.

One way where now it's become almost easy and it doesn't really hold that title.

Making a World Cup is like, wow, you got to be the best in the world when once upon a time used to be 24 teams, right?

So the more teams involved, I think it's a different approach.

And it's something I mentioned on one of the broadcasts of games for Canada.

You know, I think now the expectation is getting out of the group.
