He can do both, by the way.”Host Shebahn Aherne then asked Cascarino where he would be called up to play in the World Cup squad.He added: “It would be very hard to ignore him because someone 6 foot 3 inches with his ability technically, his pace, his aerial threat.GettyO’Reilly was handed his England debut by Tuchel in November and has two caps to his name[/caption]“When you see him standing on the pitch, you don’t realise how big he is.“He’s a real unit as a young man of 20 and he seems to have a great mentality.“It was a great day for him yesterday, but he’s been playing. You look at how many games he’s played for City this year. He’s been involved since the start of the season.”Cascarino’s stance was echoed by Henry Winter on Sunday Edition as he explained: “I think he’s probably going to the World Cup.“Possibly [he would have got in] as a left-back. England have had 12 left-backs since the Euro final. So many players have played across there.“But the point is that O’Reilly, how good was he in midfield? How good was he as a number 10? England have got incredible strength in depth.”GettyThe 20-year-old is capable of playing both in midfield or at left-back this summer[/caption]Tuchel has a number of tough decisions to make ahead of the finals in the USA, Canada and MexicoGettyEngland return to action next month with friendlies against Uruguay and Japan.It will be the last chance for players to impress Tuchel first hand before the Three Lions head to North America for the World Cup.His side face New Zealand and Costa Rica in Florida in June on the eve of the tournament.They are then scheduled to take on Croatia, Ghana and Panama during the group stage this summer.
