Roy Keane questions Thomas Tuchel after omitting Harry Maguire but selecting Marc Guehi in the squad for the 2026 World Cup finals.
On 22 May 2026, Roy Keane, the legendary Irish midfielder of Manchester United, questioned Thomas Tuchel, the German coach of England’s national team, following reports that he omitted Harry Maguire but included Marc Guehi in the squad for the 2026 World Cup finals.
Keane commented on the issue, saying, “Listen, I really feel for Harry, but what exactly is Thomas Tuchel thinking? It’s utterly ridiculous. It’s like a circus. You’re talking about Harry Maguire, a genuine defender who has dedicated many years to the England national team.”
“You know exactly what you get from him. He has a good character and performs well in important matches. When the pressure is on, he delivers excellent performances. Yet you leave him at home and choose someone like Marc Guehi instead? Oh, that’s weak management—unwise, not courageous, and frankly, it’s complete nonsense. He is making a huge mistake.”
