Maguire heavily criticised his World Cup snub<\/span><\/a> before the official announcement, while <\/span>his mother publicly stated she was “absolutely disgusted”<\/span><\/a> by the decision. This reaction clearly frustrated Tuchel, who addressed the situation directly during his latest squad unveiling.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cIt doesn’t help. It does not help,\u201d Tuchel told reporters when asked about Maguire’s public complaints. \u201cI will not hold it against him for the rest of his life because I’m not that type of person.

That he is desperate to play for England and he will fight for his shirt. So here we are. He is in camp and he has the chance. It\u2019s a long camp and it\u2019s a good moment to show up.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Tuchel confirmed he had not spoken to the defender prior to the call-up, adding: \u201cI spoke to him before the World Cup and told him my decision and this time it was the good news.
