The Three Lions have been unlucky with injury setbacks during the World Cup, with their defence being ravaged in the opening stages, leaving them exposed.
A viral clip showed Tuchel letting rip at Djed Spence during the goalless draw with Ghana in the group stages as he filled in for the injured Reece James, Jarell Quansah and Tino Livramento.
Carragher has blasted Thomas Tuchel over his decision to call up Trevoh Chalobah after Livramento dropped out of the side due to injury.
He spoke more on Tuchel’s decisions this week and didn’t hold back as he tore into England’s lacklustre defence.
“This all just goes back to Thomas Tuchel's decisions around the right back area. It's just not been right from day one with the squad that's been picked.
“It's not been clever after the event. He picked two very injury-prone players at right back, he brought another right back if you like, Djed Spence, but at left back. But I think to bring Chalobah in when there were injuries in that position was a bizarre decision. He's not a right back, so you're going to leave yourself short.
“We know we haven't got an abundance of world class players defensively, now that's probably the weak area of our team, but there was a lot wrong with England in that first 20 minutes and how easy it was to get at the back four.”
Spence is once again expected to start again against Mexico on Sunday if Reece James does not recover from a hamstring injury in time. Tuchel has no other choice than pick Spence, even if reports state that Declan Rice could deputize at the back.
