The Post wrote an article supporting Gerald's harsh evaluation of England's "golden generation" of "ego-proud losers", and combined with his experience during the 2006 World Cup in Germany, revealing the division and chaos within the team. The article believes that this failed history is providing a valuable warning for the current coach Tuchel to deal with the Bellingham issue. Back then, the "wife group" composed of players' families stayed in a hotel with the media, and there were "fever quarrels" in the bar almost every night. Paul Robinson, the former national gate, also admitted that everything at that time was "very wrong." The article points out that the team's division is deeply rooted. As Gerrard said, the factional dispute between clubs led by Liverpool and Manchester United players is particularly serious. They even eat separately in the restaurant and sit separately on the team bus. The article also added an insider detail: some players were dissatisfied with captain Beckham being allowed to pick the best room in the hotel and filed a complaint with then-head coach Erikson about the matter.

British media believe that although Eriksen is a "lovely person", he is too weak and unable to control the conceit of the superstars in the team, which ultimately leads to the team's poor performance. He praised the later coach Southgate, who built team cohesion, and finally broke the "fact culture" that plagued England for many years and led the team to success in recent years.

This history provides a mirror for the current situation. British media interpreted Tuchel's recent decision to exclude Bellingham from the list as a "wisdom" move that learned from history.

article points out that many people believe that Bellingham has a negative impact on team unity, and Tuchel is doing what Eriksson dared not do back then, and for the sake of team spirit, he will give up on his own.

The article quotes Tuchel's original words to support this view: "The attitude before, after and during the game (the previous training camp) is exactly what we want. So, why should I take the risk of changing it?"
