and Manchester City defender Joleon Lescott was similarly encouraged by Maguire\u2019s cameo display, chiming in: \u2018He did his chances no harm in getting on the plane.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018His commitment\u2026 we spoke about the quality of the crosses beforehand but if you have someone with that willingness to get on the end of it and make first contacts, it\u2019s so important.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018But I think we\u2019ve got a long way to go and if we\u2019re relying on set-pieces to win us a tournament then it\u2019s going to be a long tournament for us.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018But we can take the game in perspective and recognise that sometimes when you lose this close to a tournament, it\u2019s a blessing in disguise.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>On Maguire, Lescott continued: \u2018He knows his role in the squad and he\u2019s well respected. <\/p>\n<p>\u2018I\u2019m a big fan having worked with him and I know how much it means to him to play for England and how coachable he is. <\/p>\n<p>\u2018Yes, I think that comment was made from Tuchel because of the season rather than where he\u2019s at technically.\u2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>For more stories
