English coach Tuchel talked about his decision not to call Arnold on this international match day.

"I was on the phone with Arnold. The communication between this phone is not easy, but I hope I will tell him the situation in person. He understood this and his attitude was very clear. He was eager to return to England and play for the country. Everything is still under consideration, but this is indeed a decision that requires a comprehensive competitive factor. And I did this to make the competitive atmosphere more intense. First and foremost, I think players like Arnold need to feel the trust and support from coaches, teammates, clubs, national teams and fans. He needs these."

"From Rees James Judging from his performance in the past two training sessions and his performance in the Club World Cup with Chelsea, he is slightly better at this position. We then chose Livramento, one because he has an excellent game rhythm, and the other is that he can provide us with the choice of offense and defense on both sides. Ben White had a great chance to join us. I was very satisfied with his preseason performance, and the feedback he received from him and the club about his preseason situation was also very good. He was injured as soon as he got the chance to play, which directly ruined his chance to join us. He had a high chance of being selected. "
