Jamie Carragher is a huge fan of the Real Madrid midfielder but thinks it was 'strong management' from Thomas Tuchel when he omitted Jude Bellingham from his last squadWhile Thomas Tuchel recognises that Jude Bellingham is now one of world football’s most high-profile stars, he still seemed slightly puzzled by the debate that raged after the Real Madrid man was left out of the last England squad.Tuchel will tell you that Bellingham missed the last two games because his comeback from a shoulder operation was still gathering pace and that he is now back in the squad because he is up to speed and in good form.But if Tuchel wanted to send a message to every established England player, he did that when he omitted Bellingham, says Jamie Carragher.READ MORE: Wayne Rooney 'surprised' by Thomas Tuchel decision as England player snubbedREAD MORE: Jamie Carragher accuses Newcastle of 'letting down' Eddie Howe in England declaration“Back in the England squad, Jude Bellingham will now feel he has got something to prove. I think it was really good management, really strong management,” said Carragher, speaking at the launch of a new Sky Bet/British Heart Foundation initiative in the pioneering Every Minute Matters campaign*.“Jude Bellingham is one of the best players in European and world football.

England cannot go to the World Cup without Jude Bellingham but I actually admire what the manager has done."And it can work in the long run. Thomas Tuchel knows he does not need Jude Bellingham to win qualifying games and he can also send a message to Jude Bellingham, who is England’s biggest-named player.“But that also sends a message to the rest of the England squad.

If Jude Bellingham can be left out of the England squad, then so can anybody. He is going to ruffle a few feathers - he has done that at all the clubs he has been at.
