England's 'reserves' have started well. Good work by Jude Bellingham leads to a chance for Declan Rice but his attempt flashes wide.

John Stones is exerting his influence on the game and has been key so far.

Adam Wharton reacts and sees the next pass. A round of a applause from Thomas Tuchel - if they want to keep a clean sheet it's about reacting in the right way.

It is so fluid from England - it is like they have been playing this formation since Thomas Tuchel come in.

More positive play by England.

When you're a manager, you're trying to find that fine balance of being defensively solid and carrying a threat upfront.

Thomas Tuchel has managed to find that by leaving out some big names, and finding the best relationships within that midfield area.

With Thomas Tuchel coming in, he gives you a tactical edge and that's what he has given England.

Listening to Harry Kane speak yesterday, he felt there were more plans in place and more tactical understanding of what they need to do going into games.

The players coming in will be wanting to stake a claim. Players like Jarell Quansah coming into the team is a big opportunity. He has been in six squads without playing which is a lot!
