In the aftermath of England's World Cup exit, Gary Neville has chosen to defend manager Thomas Tuchel. He stated that he will not 'lump in' on the criticisms directed at Tuchel, emphasizing that the issues faced by the team are not new.
Neville pointed out that he never expected England to win the tournament, suggesting that the problems within the team have been persistent for years. His comments come as the football community reflects on the team's performance in the tournament.
The former player highlighted the need for a deeper understanding of the challenges that the England team has faced historically, rather than placing blame solely on the current management.
