Tuchel's Happy Dilemma: England's Top 5 Attacking Midfielders with an Average Value of 100 Million Euros — Who to Use and Who to Leave Out

The 2026 World Cup in the US, Canada, and Mexico is only six months away. Every player dreams of lifting the World Cup trophy, and England is particularly eager to bring football back home. The Three Lions are also considered strong contenders for the 2026 title. England’s coach Tuchel currently has a fortunate problem: five attacking midfielders, the so-called number 10s, each with an average value near 100 million euros. Which players should he select, and which should be left behind?

A look at England’s top five attacking midfielders:

• Bellingham: Real Madrid, valued at 160 million euros, with 5 goals and 4 assists in 20 matches this season.
• Palmer: Chelsea, valued at 120 million euros, with 8 goals and 3 assists this season.
• Foden: Manchester City, valued at 80 million euros, with 10 goals and 4 assists in 23 appearances this season.
• Rogers: Aston Villa, valued at 70 million euros, with 7 goals and 4 assists in 24 matches this season.
• Eze: Arsenal, valued at 65 million euros, with 5 goals and 4 assists in 22 appearances this season.

Fans joke that England used to have a dilemma with two Dele Allis, but now face a problem with five top talents. Although Bellingham has the highest value, he is the least favored by supporters, while Rogers is currently in great form and might be Tuchel’s key player. The dual core of "Double Han Kings" (Rogers + Palmer) is also a strong option. Who would you pick?
