Gordon Backs Tuchel on England's Possession Issues

Anthony Gordon has supported Thomas Tuchel's controversial claim that controlling games through possession is not part of English football's DNA. The winger, who was substituted when England led Argentina 1-0 in the World Cup semi-final, refused to blame Tuchel for the defeat that followed Argentina's fightback with two late goals.

Gordon argued that wider cultural issues influenced England's collapse under pressure, reinforcing the head coach's assertion that 'ball possession' was not in the team's DNA. The comments come amid continued scrutiny of England's technical abilities and tactical approach in high-stakes matches. truewildslot.com
