Despite these hurdles, Tuchel revealed that the England squad and staff watched the Nations League final together, maintaining a positive outlook and asserting that they have nothing to fear from heavyweights Spain and Portugal.

Thomas Tuchel has warned his England squad he won't "sugarcoat" his assessment of performances after criticising aspects of the win over Andorra.

Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka missed the Andorra game with a minor knock but Tuchel confirmed he would start against Senegal in a friendly at the City Ground in Nottingham on Tuesday night.
