Posted by The Post: Tuchel s team cannot tolerate the "savior complex" and Bellin should give up the protagonist syndrome

England announced its latest roster, and Real Madrid star Bellingham was defeated. Regarding Bellingham's failure to be elected in a healthy situation, English media Daily Mail reporter Craig Hope wrote an article to analyze this matter. He believes that if Bellingham's "leading protagonist syndrome" continues, England and Bellingham have only one ending, but Tuchel also has a simple solution.

The following is the full text of the article:

This week, when Bellingham was declared England Player of the Year, Tuchel was likely to have sighed. This self-proclaimed savior, maybe it is, but the head coach's lineup cannot tolerate the "savior complex".

When the award winner was informed of the news, Madrid might even hear a shout of "Who else?!". He knows that he is excellent, and we also know that his advantages as a football player are not the focus of this discussion.

The question is whether a player suffering from "leading protagonist syndrome" can become the leader of everyone. Tuchel wants Bellingham to be part of the team, rather than thinking he is the whole of the team. The German is trying to create a collective.

There are no "meteors" in their orbit here, especially those "meteors" that lead their teammates to the wrong way because of their intimidating attitude.

You don't need to work at NASA to understand that what Tuchel said after a 5-0 victory over Serbia last month is likely to refer to Bellingham, he said: "(after making a mistake) no upset, no frustration, no waving, no glaring, no harsh words. There is just a team ready to work hard and put in 90 minutes. "

"It's a team sport. If a big player misses an event, we need to have a solution. If he misses a training camp, we need a solution. We have to focus on players that are available and ready to be the best teammates, and that's exactly what we do. "

Two days after that game in Belgrade, talkSPORT Host, former Aston Villa forward Gabi Abanglaho said I "nonsense" just because I made it not for my opinion that Bellingham, Phil Foden and Bukayo Saka should return to England to start the eleven.

I listened with interest, eager to understand the basis of his judgment. The core is nothing more than: you have to send your best player. Welcome back to 2006!

The best players do not make up the best team, and the team should not be built around the best players, even if that person is Bellingham. Take 1966 as an example, 40 years ago when Eriksen tried to stuff all his gold coins into the same piggy bank.

The Swedes' team is talented but lacks cohesion. But on the most glorious day in England, their best player except Bobby Charlton, Jimmy Greaves sat in the stands. His substitute Jeff Hurst scored a hat trick.

However, although Tuchel abandoned him in an international match in October, he had to re-engage Bellingham before the World Cup. Why? Because he needs to know if Bellingham listened to him. He needs to know how the opponent reacted after he dismissed the 22-year-old's on-field behavior in June.

That words are indeed inappropriate and should not be said publicly, but you hope the substance of his criticism is being resolved privately.

So, where will he play? If Tuchel insists on using the 4-2-3-1 formation, the No. 10 position should be tailor-made for Bellingham. The coach has doubts about his position discipline, which is part of the "leading protagonist" tendency, but the area behind Kane allows more freedom, and perhaps, a "white knight" as long as his support is for the team, not for his own ego.

Put Elliot Anderson and Rice behind him as a mixed role of the No. 6 and No. 8, and Bellingham can hand over the heavier defensive tasks to the pair that complements the more complementary than any midfield combination in recent years, including Bellingham and Rice.

If Tuchel said it is true, the World Cup held in North America next summer will be extremely difficult and stalemate like the local humid air, then it is likely that some moments will be determined. And Bellingham is the player England team is best at creating "moment".

This does not mean that he should play with the arrogant gunman like he did in the 2024 European Cup, but it does mean that when the team needs a flash of inspiration, he can be the one who changes the situation. He can bring lightning without having to be accompanied by the gloomy emotions of the storm.

David Pratt is an English midfielder who has never controlled the overall situation of the game but can repeatedly contribute critical moments. At the same time, he also made contributions to the collective diligently and diligently.

In a scene in that brilliant and unparalleled documentary The Impossible Mission, Pratt even accepted the fact that his English captainship was replaced by Tony Adams when coach Graham Taylor explained that it was for the sake of the big picture.

If Bellingham can take a good look at that video and observe how Pratt is in a good position, it will be of great benefit to him, both as a player and as a talented person. He is still young, excellent enough, and smart enough to study. Tuchel clearly believes that if they want to succeed together, Bellingham needs to change his mindset.

The World Cup is the goal of the head coach, and he will not be tempted by awards that polish for one person. What he wanted was a trophy held up by everyone.
