Nottingham Forest midfielder Elliot Anderson has praised England head coach Thomas Tuchel for helping him adapt to a deeper midfield role. In a recent interview, Anderson revealed that Tuchel's guidance was instrumental in his development, allowing him to better understand the tactical demands of the position.
"Tuchel helped me understand my new role," Anderson said. "He gave me a clear picture of what he expects and how I can contribute to the team from that deeper area."
The 21-year-old, who joined Forest from Newcastle United, has been deployed in a more withdrawn midfield position this season. Anderson has impressed with his composure on the ball and ability to dictate play from deep, a transformation he attributes to Tuchel's insights.
Anderson's comments came during The Football Interview, a BBC Sport feature that offers an in-depth look at his career and recent performances for Nottingham Forest.
