England will be one of the favourites going into the 2026 FIFA World Cup. They won all eight of their games in the qualifiers. The Three Lions became the first team to do so.
Apart from that, they did not even concede a goal in the qualifiers. So, Thomas Tuuchel’s men will go into the 2026 event full of confidence.
They will also play Uruguay and Japan in the international break as part of the preparation for the event.
Now, FotMob has released England’s best team according to the player ratings each player received while playing in various domestic leagues around the world.
Surprisingly, in goal, Dean Henderson has toppled Jordan Pickford. However, the Everton goalkeeper is a clear favourite to star ahead of the Crystal Palace captain.
In the right-back position, Reece James gets a place although the Chelsea captain is injured right now.
Manchester City’s new signing, Marc Guehi, has paired with the former Liverpool and current Bayer Leverkusen star Jarell Quansah as the centre-backs for England.
The Carabao Cup hero for Pep Guardiola’s men, Nico O’Riley, gets a place as the left-back for England in this World Cup XI. Declan Rice has been a standout performer for Arsenal this season.
So, obviously, he gets a place along with the Manchester United and Manchester City transfer target for next summer, Elliot Anderson.
It is hard to imagine an England lineup currently with Jude Bellingham. So, the Real Madrid star is also in this XI from FotMob.
In the attack for the Three Lions, Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka gets a place on the right. And Manchester City’s Phil Foden plays from the left.
And, it is quite obvious that England’s captain and Bayern Munich’s goal machine, Harry Kane, will lead the attack for England.
So, with such quality in their lineup, England should go deep into the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
🏴📊 This is the best England XI based on average FotMob players ratings in league play this season (and not current fitness).
