England national team defender Djed Spence has stated he isn't bothered by manager Thomas Tuchel's raised voice during training sessions, dismissing the German's high demands as "part of the game."

A video clip circulating on social media showed Tuchel shouting at Spence: "Djed, Djed, wake up!"

"It's normal. He's a great manager and he wants the best from his players. He demands high standards, and for a tournament like this, we need to be ready. Every training session has to be at the highest level; that's what he expects. I'm not the only one he shouts at. It's part of the game," Spence explained.

Djed Spence made his World Cup debut in the 4-2 victory over Croatia and will have another opportunity to feature in Tuesday's match against Ghana.
