Roy Keane dismantles England player after match with Albania: He will not play under Tuchel

Roy Keane didn't hold back as he offered a brutal assessment of an England star following the 2-0 win over Albania.

On Friday evening, fans got their first glimpse of what England will look like under new manager Thomas Tuchel as they played their first match under the new manager against the Rossoneri.

The Three Lions won the World Cup qualifier 2-0, with Arsenal star Myles Lewis-Skelly opening the scoring on his debut before captain Harry Kane put the match to bed late in the game.

But despite the impressive performance from England, there is one player who expert Keane was not impressed with at all and he has explained exactly why.

In his first match since replacing Gareth Southgate as England manager, Tuchel included some shocking players in his starting line-up, handing debuts to Lewis-Skelly and Dan Burn, while bringing back players like Curtis Jones to the team.

But it was in his front three that the German coach made his biggest decisions, as Phil Foden and Marcus Rashford started on the wings, despite failing to impress for most of this season.

Both players were disappointed in the match, particularly Foden who failed to impress when given the opportunity to play in his disadvantaged position on the right wing, but Keane was not at all interested in hearing any excuses for the poor performance.

Speaking on ITV, the Manchester United legend dismissed suggestions that Foden may be struggling as he is not playing in his preferred No.10 position, currently occupied by Jude Bellingham.

"Listen, Foden won't have a problem where he plays because he's not playing anymore," Keane said. "I think he might lack confidence. He's definitely out. His form at the club hasn't been great, but we know he's got that quality. Usually when Foden is at his best you're sitting there thinking 'something is going to happen', but I wasn't thinking that tonight."

"Usually when he's waiting inside, he'll choose a pass out or a long shot. He didn't do any of that tonight and every time he gets the ball, I look at him and think: 'I'm not expecting anything from Foden at the moment'."

"Wherever he plays, you have to influence the game in different ways and he didn't do that tonight," Keane added.Telegraph/
