ToggleTuchel is preparing for his first games in charge of England since replacing Gareth Southgate in the hotseat. The German coach has named his first Three Lions squad and raised a few eyebrows by calling up Newcastle's 32-year-old defender Dan Burn and recalling Jordan Henderson to the squad. Tuchel has now been getting to know his players at St George's Park ahead of World Cup qualifiers against Albania and Latvia.

All eyes will be on Tuchel's first teamsheet on Friday to see how the former Chelsea boss lines his team up against Albania. Burn will be hoping for a first cap just days after scoring in Newcastle's Carabao Cup win over Liverpool, while a return for Henderson may well divide opinion among supporters. Indeed the decision to call up Burn, Henderson and Kyle Walker has already been met with derision by many England fans.
At the age of 32 years and 311 days, Burn is the third-oldest Englishman to score in a League Cup final, after Stoke's George Eastham in 1972 (35y 163d) and John Terry for Chelsea in 2015.
England's first fixture under Tuchel is against Albania on Friday night. The Three Lions then host Latvia three days later, with both games taking place at Wembley Stadium.
