Gascoigne Calls on England to Channel the 1990 World Cup Spirit

last week·1 min

Paul Gascoigne has urged Thomas Tuchel's England squad to draw inspiration from the extraordinary team spirit that defined the 1990 World Cup generation, warning that no player can afford to carry passengers at football's biggest tournament.

Speaking on ITV, the former midfielder — now 59 — looked back fondly on Bobby Robson's side, which navigated all the way to the semi-finals in Italy before falling to West Germany. For Gascoigne, that tournament stands as the gold standard for collective belief.
