How James Garner could now get England start as Everton ace to benefit from double injury blow
James Garner may get a chance to start away from Everton as England face Czechia on Tuesday.
The Three Lions travel to Prague on 28 September for their second Nations League game of the international break.
In the 3-2 loss to Spain at Wembley Stadium, the Toffees' midfielder came on for the final 20 minutes, replacing Myles Lewis-Skelly.
Garner has been in fine form at Hill Dickinson Stadium and will hope his consistent performances under David Moyes are soon rewarded by Thomas Tuchel.
The German boss may be forced to make changes against Czechia after fitness concerns in his squad.
The latest developments within the England camp could potentially benefit the Merseyside outfit's star at the Fortuna Arena.
Who James Garner could come for in Czechia vs England
Garner didn't really impress in his cameo against Spain, but he will be hoping for another opportunity.
Tuchel started with Lewis-Skelly and Elliot Anderson in a double pivot for England at Wembley.
With Declan Rice withdrawing from the squad, the Toffees' midfielder has been given a chance to make an impression.
According to Sky Sports News on 28 September, Nico O'Reilly and Ezri Konsa are doubts to feature at the Fortuna Arena.
Tuchel could potentially move Lewis-Skelly to left-back and partner Garner with Anderson in the engine room.
Why Everton contingent could be prominent for Thomas Tuchel
Apart from Garner, Jarrad Branthwaite may also get England's starting lineup, with Konsa also a doubt for the Czechia game.
The centre-back has been exceptional for the Toffees this campaign and could finally get the recognition he deserves on the international stage.
While Tuchel said James Trafford would play two games during the break, Jordan Pickford could possibly come in for the next game after the Leeds United goalkeeper's underwhelming experience against Spain.
The 32-year-old shot-stopper has been England's number one for several years and could provide the stability Tuchel needs to get back to winning ways.
