Jude wants assist! England supervisor Thomas Tuchel says we can’t anticipate Real Madrid celebrity Bellingham to do all the things

England need to help Jude Bellingham more, according to boss Thomas Tuchel who admitted the Real Madrid superstar tried to do too much at the European Championship last summer.

The Three Lions beat Albania in the new manager’s debut on Friday night but Tuchel felt the performance left something to be desired — and has asked for his team to show some more German efficiency.

And when asked if Bellingham tried too hard at the Euros, Tuchel said: ‘Yes. He is always ready to give everything but we need to help him so that within a structure he can play more economically and still have the same impact, or maybe even more impact.

‘We need to make sure that the leaders — he is one of the leaders — and the key players, walk in the same direction and play in the same rhythm and help each other out. And play a little more disciplined maybe, to save some energy for the decisive moments.

‘He’s a very emotional player once he’s on the pitch and I think you just see that he hates to lose and does everything that it takes. He expresses himself. You see the hunger and the desire to win.

‘I think he will keep this hunger and learn to channel the emotions a little bit.’

Tuchel and England host Latvia on Monday and the former Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich manager wants his team to take more risks and be more economical with the ball. Asked if they were not efficient enough, he said: ‘Absolutely. I’m not so sure why we struggled to have more impact with the wingers.

‘In general we struggled to dare to take the risk and to understand where to take the risk.

‘In my opinion, we need more discipline in the positions because when we understand where everyone is, when we have the ball we can pass the ball quicker and pass more decisively and bypass more opponents.

‘If we change too many positions like we did in the second half it slows our game down — we don’t want that. But it was amazing to hear the anthem and be in charge. It still feels great, I love the group of players — now we will try to squeeze the best out of them.

‘Of course, the challenge is to prepare over the next two days 20 players who come from, I don’t know, 11 or 12 clubs. I deal with football. I’m not the most patient guy in the world when it comes to it, but I will learn and push the players It’s an OK start.’
