Dan Burn was full of praise for Lewis-Skelly after the 18-year-old achieved his debut in England in their opening of the World Cup qualifiers against Albania.
“Second half, he played as eight, we wanted to take more risks,” Tuchel said.
“The first half we played in the front 4-1 and 4-1. He played more conventional and achieved more in advance. He played as 8 or 10, I think his best position is where he plays for Arsenal in the left twice six, revealed roles.

Rob Dorset and Blitz himself respond to the victory of England over Albania, and it was discussing what Thomas Tuchel could change in his second game.
“If you see him in the possession of the training games, the quality of the first touch, the body movement, how he plays passes, is very high understanding of the game. He is very versatile and can do a lot of things. Today we have tried to play more conventional because there are many players for different clubs.”
Tuchel acknowledges work needed while Foden and Rashford fights
Foden has zero contributions in each of its last 17 trips to England
Marcus Rashford was a surprise to Tuchel’s first line of England, earning his first cap in England for over a year. Aston Villa, on loan from Manchester United, was joined by Phil Foden, who is fighting for a form at the club level.
The infertile evening of the Manchester City midfielder means that Foden failed to register a goal or assist in any of his last 17 appearances for his nation.

Asked about their performances after the game, Tuchel said: “Both of our wings were not as influential as they can usually be, as are otherwise in club football.
“I’m not sure why we struggled to bring them the ball faster, I’m not sure why we took so long. We missed a little running from the ball, and there is not enough passing and dribbling.
“It’s not enough to drive with a ball. It’s not aggressive enough to the goal. They were determined in training, so we chose them.”
At Foden, he added, “We will encourage him to do what he does best: Go to the defenders, go to dribbling.”
