Former England defender Rio Ferdinand has claimed that Thomas Tuchel would have been a "huge, huge bonus" for his famed Golden Generation, praising the current England manager's tactical clarity and unfiltered honesty.
Softfootball understands that Ferdinand had earlier spoken on who he believes should be Englands no. 10 between Phil Foden, Jude Bellingham and Cole Palmer and is now speaking on his podcast in a video uploaded via the official X account, Rio Ferdinand Presents.
Ferdinand reflected on the era featuring David Beckham, Paul Scholes, Frank Lampard, and Steven Gerrard, a midfield quartet often lauded as one of England's finest. Yet, he admitted that their collective brilliance may have hindered team balance.
