  "account": "England's manager Thomas Tuchel expressed disappointment at Cole Palmer's absence from the team's recent camp in London. Palmer, who has been working on his fitness with a personal rehab coach, cited \"load management\" as the reason for his absence. England players, including Morgan Rogers, defended Palmer, stating that he is focusing on his body and physical condition after a tough year last season. Rogers, Palmer's friend and partner in crime at Chelsea, admitted he misses his friend but understood the need to take a break. Palmer has started the season well, contributing with seven goals and six assists. England faces a challenging opponent in Spain, and Rogers emphasized that the team has the technical quality and mental resolve to handle the situation, regardless of the outcome.",
