Who was the best No.10 in the\u00a0Premier League<\/a>\u00a0so far this season?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The main role of a No.10 often depends on the team. And the formation. It can be a sole No.10 in a 4-2-3-1 or similar formation, or a dual No.10 setup with a 3-4-2-1. But as a generalisation, No.10s need to be both creative and a goal threat themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ve used our Squawka Score to pick out top five No.10s in 2025-26, among players with at least 1,710 minutes played in the Premier League \u2014 that\u2019s 50% of the season. Our rating system takes into account a variety of statistical categories, both defensive and offensive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
