England manager Thomas Tuchel has confirmed he intends to stick with his current defensive setup for Tuesday’s Nations League match against Czechia, despite concerns over the team's recent form. England enters the fixture following a 3-2 defeat to Spain, a game in which Tuchel admitted the team’s defensive errors made them a "danger to ourselves."

Despite the team failing to keep a clean sheet in their last six outings, Tuchel has publicly backed defenders Marc Guéhi and Nico O’Reilly, both of whom were involved in errors during the loss to Spain. The manager’s approach signals a preference for continuity rather than immediate personnel changes, even as the squad faces potential injury setbacks. Specifically, Tuchel is currently monitoring the fitness of O’Reilly and Ezri Konsa ahead of the match in Prague. While the defensive unit has come under scrutiny for its lack of stability, Tuchel appears focused on maintaining his current tactical structure as England looks to recover in Group A3.
