Mainoo did not start a league game this season until Carrick replaced Ruben Amorim but has subsequently turned in a series of strong performances alongside Casemiro.Maguire has also been a Carrick mainstay and appears back to his best after a lengthy spell of injuries and patchy form. He won the last of his 64 caps for the Three Lions under interim boss Lee Carsley over a year ago.Newcastles Lewis Hall also includedTuchel selects his squad at 10am this morning and it is also set to feature Newcastle defender Lewis Hall, who has an excellent chance of nailing down the troublesome left-back berth.Hall has been a shining light for Newcastle since returning from injury and impressed in keeping Lamine Yamal largely quiet over two Champions League games against Barcelona before the Magpies second-half collapse at Camp Nou.This is Tuchels last squad call before he has to select his final group for the World Cup this summer in the United States, Canada and Mexico.
