Managers can say to players 'I want a really quick tempo' but often don't get it. Tuchel seems to have cracked it so far.
The lad is absolute pump. At international level anyway. Same as Burn. Just looks totally out of place. There’s no reality where he’s a better bet than Grealish. TBH I’d have Rashford there every single time too given how he’s started the season.
That was a statement performance, Serbia are no mugs but they were swatted away comfortably. That was the kind if result and performance that gets others teams notice and worries them. The kind of thing the Germans in their pomp would do. This isn't quite at that level at against Serbia, but only just below. If that was a 10/10 performance this is a 9/10, but both performances so far would stand up against anyone else.
Burn is just a head it-kick it stopper centre half, solid enough in the league but he'll get exposed against good international forwards. Gordon NEVER has any end product. Lots of pace but at international level never looks like scoring or setting anyone up. His crossing is just swing his leg and get it in the box, not like he's actually trying to pick anyone out.
