He sat around the dinner table, amazing.
I think them games, for me, that's, it doesn't,
Listen, Tuchel, we'll know, he's probably 10 starting players now.
He might be undecided with one, but them games are just to get used to the heat, get used to the climate, and hopefully one player might do great and put a little bit of a seed in the manager's head.
That's what I used to do.

No, but what I wanted to do, my mindset, if I'm like a squad player, which a lot of them were on that game the other day, I just want to put a seed in that.
mind his head to show him that if something happens to one of the starters, I'm ready to go and I'm good enough to go and do that and I can be reliable.

You've got to play these games and you think about Croatia next week still and the play on Wednesday night is on.
The thing about Croatia, I think Tuchel actually said they've got 14 or 15 starters.
And the thing is, in the back of your mind, whether you like it or not, you don't want to get injured.
And when you're thinking like that, that's when sometimes you do get injured.
You're not even going, I'm not going for this tackle, I'll just pull out a little bit and someone will come right through you before you know it.
