The Football Association has made no secret of the thinking behind Tuchel's appointment, handing him an 18-month deal with a clear brief to end the men's side's wait for a major trophy. The yearning has grown for England after a series of near misses under Gareth Southgate but Carsley, who widened the talent pool while securing promotion to the top tier of the Nations League during his interim spell, is confident that the squad is capable of triumphing in Canada, Mexico and the USA in 2026.
"I think we are in a good position to do that," Carsley said. "I think we have the talent to do it. I have been lucky now to be at the last couple of World Cups and the timing of the players being in form, physically and mentally, at the right time, picking the right squad. We have got all of the tools. We just need to play them in the order."
