England advanced to the Round of 16 of the FIFA World Cup, and so far, Manchester United's young player Kobbie Mainoo has not played a single minute. He is the only midfielder among the seven in the squad who has remained on the bench throughout, with the other six midfielders having all made appearances.
This situation stands in stark contrast to his performance at the European Championship two years ago: at UEFA Euro 2024, Mainoo established himself in the latter stages of the group stage and started all four knockout matches. In the quarter-finals, semi-finals, and final, he was the team's midfield core, becoming a key player in England's journey to the final.
At this FIFA World Cup, Tuchel has consistently trusted the starting trio of Rice, Anderson, and Bellingham. Henderson, Rogers, and Eze have all been given opportunities to come on as substitutes, while Mainoo has not been utilized at all.

as a united fan I don't mind him not starting as long as the other midfielder's play well and win. let's not forget that the team winning is more important than an individual player not playing a game
