The article, shortened and in plain language

Thomas Tuchel says it would be “madness” to allow his England players or the clubs to pick and choose their matches during the elongated Nations League window as he promised to go full throttle for victory against Czechia in Prague on Tuesday.
The manager did accept that Declan Rice needed to rest and could not be part of the squad in light of the Arsenal midfielder’s heavy workload across some seasons and well-documented fitness issues. Rice was at Wembley on Saturday to watch England lose 3-2 against Spain in their opening Nations League game.
But now that Tuchel has his group, he says there is no room for compromise and not to speak to club managers who might want to make deals over their players’ minutes.

After Prague, England go to Rijeka to play Croatia on Saturday before returning to Wembley to face Czechia next Tuesday.
Tuchel accepted the Spain defeat had increased the pressure for the trip to Prague but he was unconcerned.
Tuchel was asked whether Jude Bellingham could sustain his all-or-nothing style for another three England games in quick succession. “It’s the only style he can play,” Tuchel said.
