World Cup: Nicky Butt urges Mainoo to boycott France clash, calls for Tuchel’s sack

Former Manchester United midfielder Nicky Butt has urged Kobbie Mainoo to refuse to play in England’s World Cup third-place match against France. Butt said the midfielder has been unfairly overlooked throughout the tournament and should not be asked to feature in what he described as a meaningless game. He argued that Mainoo has not played a single minute and should not be exposed to injury in a match that offers little value after England’s semi-final exit. Butt also called for the dismissal of England manager Thomas Tuchel, insisting the German coach should not remain in charge after the team’s disappointing World Cup campaign.

England boss hammered by media after World Cup exit

England manager Thomas Tuchel is facing heavy criticism from the media after his team’s World Cup exit against Argentina.

The German coach had earlier blamed his players for being too passive, but British newspapers and commentators focused instead on his tactics and game management. The defeat has raised fresh questions about Tuchel’s future and whether he can quickly rebuild confidence in the England team. For many supporters, the loss was another painful setback in a tournament that had offered real hope of ending decades of World Cup disappointment.
