The 78-time international is a vital player for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/outright-markets\/everton-outright-odds-25-26\/\">Everton<\/a>. He&#8217;s kept two clean sheets and saved one of the two penalties he&#8217;s faced so far this season. Pickford&#8217;s passing is also elite, with 10.5 completed long passes per 90 minutes this season, far outstripping his England rivals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/outright-markets\/crystal-palace-outright-odds-25-26\/\">Crystal Palace<\/a>&#8216;s <strong>Dean Henderson <\/strong>is next on 66%, building his score with an impressive 0.53 goals prevented per 90 and a save percentage of 73.33%. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/outright-markets\/newcastle-outright-odds-25-26\/\">Newcastle<\/a>&#8216;s <strong>Nick Pope <\/strong>is on 65% and makes this alternative squad ahead of James Trafford, who scores 63% and has lost his place at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/outright-markets\/man-city-outright-odds-25-26\/\">Manchester City<\/a> to Gianluigi Donnarumma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-defenders\">Defenders<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Squawka Score selection: <\/strong>Ainsley Maitland-Niles, James Hill, Tyrick Mitchell, Nico O&#8217;Reilly, Marc Guehi, Trevoh Chalobah, Fikayo Tomori, Tyrone Mings, Tosin Adarabioyo<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Former <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/outright-markets\/arsenal-outright-odds-25-26\/\">Arsenal<\/a> defender <strong>Ainsley Maitland-Niles <\/strong>is enjoying a superb season in France with Lyon so far. The left-back has averaged 1.83 interceptions per 90, alongside 0.33 big chances created per 90, and two assists to run up a Squawka Score of 70%. All five of the 28-year-old&#8217;s caps so far came back in 2020, and it would be a shock to see him included by Tuchel any time soon. But he&#8217;s certainly in form and starts in this team ahead of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/outright-markets\/bournemouth-outright-odds-25-26\/\">Bournemouth<\/a>&#8216;s <strong>James Hill<\/strong>, who scores 65%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the left, we return to Crystal Palace with the ever-reliable <strong>Tyrick Mitchell<\/strong>. The two-time international has been excellent for the Eagles again, scoring 69% so far thanks to a 60.47% ground duel success, 2.5 tackles won per 90 and the winning goal in a recent 2-1 victory over <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/outright-markets\/west-ham-outright-odds-25-26\/\">West Ham United<\/a>. Backing up Mitchell is Manchester City wonderkid <strong>Nico O&#8217;Reilly<\/strong> who, despite being a natural attacking midfielder, continues to perform superbly for Pep Guardiola as a full-back. O&#8217;Reilly has blocked 0.89 shots per 90 this term, averaging the same number of successful dribbles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It won&#8217;t exactly come as a surprise to hear that <strong>Marc Guehi <\/strong>has been the top-performing English centre-back in Europe&#8217;s top five leagues so far in 2025-26. Another Crystal Palace man in this squad, Guehi has won 76% of his ground duels and made 0.17 last-man tackles per 90 minutes, while also proving vital at the other end with a goal and assist so far. Partnering Guehi is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/outright-markets\/chelsea-outright-odds-25-26\/\">Chelsea<\/a>&#8216;s <strong>Trevoh Chalobah<\/strong>, who just pips his old teammate with 76.92% ground duel success, alongside 2.99 aerial duels won and 6.16 clearances per 90 minutes. Like Guehi, Chalobah has proven his worth in the attacking box as well, with two goals in six Premier League outings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/10\/01170432\/player_-radar-comparison-819x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1402302\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/10\/01170432\/player_-radar-comparison-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/10\/01170432\/player_-radar-comparison-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/10\/01170432\/player_-radar-comparison-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/10\/01170432\/player_-radar-comparison-1229x1536.jpg 1229w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/10\/01170432\/player_-radar-comparison-214x267.jpg 214w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/10\/01170432\/player_-radar-comparison-160x200.jpg 160w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/10\/01170432\/player_-radar-comparison-48x60.jpg 48w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/10\/01170432\/player_-radar-comparison-120x150.jpg 120w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/10\/01170432\/player_-radar-comparison-32x40.jpg 32w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/10\/01170432\/player_-radar-comparison.jpg 1620w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Providing the defensive back-up are AC Milan&#8217;s <strong>Fikayo Tomori <\/strong>(69%) &#8212; who would be a popular inclusion and is criminally under-capped &#8212; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/outright-markets\/aston-villa-outright-odds-25-26\/\">Aston Villa<\/a>&#8216;s <strong>Tyrone Mings <\/strong>(67%), and Chalobah&#8217;s Chelsea partner <strong>Tosin Adarabioyo<\/strong>, though Eric Dier<strong> <\/strong>and Jarell Quansah<strong> <\/strong>also sit level on 64% with the latter. The likes of Lloyd Kelly (63%), Lewis Dunk (63%) and Michael Keane (62%) just miss out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-midfielders\">Midfielders<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Squawka Score selection: <\/strong>Elliot Anderson, James Garner, Curtis Jones, Declan Rice, Adam Wharton, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Eberechi Eze<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/outright-markets\/nottingham-forest-outright-odds-25-26\/\">Nottingham Forest<\/a>&#8216;s <strong>Elliot Anderson<\/strong> remains the most effective option to start in one of the two deeper midfield roles, scoring 73% so far this season, with his 10 completed passes into the final third and 4.67 possessions won in the middle third per 90 proving just how well-balanced he is. <strong>James Garner <\/strong>starts alongside Anderson in one of the biggest shocks on this side, but the former <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/outright-markets\/man-utd-outright-odds-25-26\/\">Man Utd<\/a> man has been superb for Everton this season, making 2.17 tackles per 90 and notching a goal and an assist to run up a score of 70%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/outright-markets\/liverpool-premier-league-outright-odds-squad-tactics-signings-full-squad\/\">Liverpool<\/a>&#8216;s <strong>Curtis Jones <\/strong>is the highest-scoring back-up player to the starting two on 67%, while <strong>Declan Rice <\/strong>is next on 62%, though the Arsenal man will, of course, be the actual starter when these matches roll around. Yet another Crystal Palace man makes it into the squad in the form of <strong>Adam Wharton<\/strong>, whose score of 58% is fuelled largely by his 1.48 successful dribbles per 90 at a 100% success rate &#8212; both the highest of any midfielder mentioned here and a great example of just how composed and press-resistant he is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The No.10 scores are still quite low at this early point in the season, and there are some big names still lacking minutes, not least Jude Bellingham, who is still building fitness with Real Madrid. Everton&#8217;s <strong>Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall<\/strong> leads the pack on 58% having averaged 7.0 penalty area entries and 1.33 crosses completed per 90 minutes, while also bagging a goal and an assist. Backing him up is Arsenal&#8217;s <strong>Eberechi Eze<\/strong>, who has scored 53% but is now very much growing into things at the Emirates with two assists in his last three Premier League appearances, as well as a goal against Port Vale in the EFL Cup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-attackers\">Attackers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Squawka Score selection:<\/strong> Harry Kane, Jarrod Bowen, Danny Welbeck, Bukayo Saka, Jacob Murphy, Jaidon Anthony, Jack Grealish<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bukayo Saka <\/strong>has returned to fitness for Arsenal, but despite not truly finding his feet again just yet, he remains England&#8217;s highest-scoring right winger on 53%. His 2.44 crosses completed per 90 stand out, helping Arsenal remain a dominant set-piece force. Backing him up is Newcastle&#8217;s <strong>Jacob Murphy<\/strong> (49%), who has been a bit of a utility man this season for Eddie Howe, but has enjoyed his best moments when playing on the right, including registering an assist for Nick Woltemade&#8217;s winner against Wolves. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The outlook is much better on the left, with <strong>Jaidon Anthony<\/strong> enjoying a wonderful season so far with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/outright-markets\/burnley-outright-odds-25-26\/\">Burnley<\/a>. The 25-year-old is uncapped at any level for England, but is doing his chances no harm with four goals and an assist in six Premier League appearances, including scoring in each of his last two outings. Only Erling Haaland (8) has scored more goals than Anthony, who has consequently managed an impressive Squawka Score of 64%. Backing him up is <strong>Jack Grealish<\/strong>, who has looked revitalised on loan at Everton with four assists in six league outings and 14 chances created &#8212; both league-highs &#8212; to score 58%.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class='vccm vccm-compare'data-compare=\"SVY54FFUlOJLL4UtnwJfg\" data-show-sponsor=\"false\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>There are zero surprises as far as England&#8217;s starting striker is concerned, with <strong>Harry Kane <\/strong>sitting on a quite ridiculous 10 goals and three assists in just five Bundesliga appearances so far this season. There&#8217;s no further explanation needed for his 87% Squawka Score &#8212; the highest in this squad. Backing up England&#8217;s record goalscorer are <strong>Jarrod Bowen <\/strong>and <strong>Danny Welbeck <\/strong>on 66% and 63%, respectively.
