The World Cup 2026 last-32 match between England and DR Congo is almost here. Fans are buzzing with opinions on who should start. It’s your chance to act as manager and pick the best XI.
Goalkeeper and Defence Choices
Who gets the nod in goal? Jordan Pickford’s big-game experience versus Dean Henderson’s sharp reflexes. The backline also needs careful thought. Consider form, fitness, and the opponents’ attacking style.
- Pickford’s leadership from the back
- Henderson’s shot-stopping ability
- Centre-back partnership: Stones and Maguire or a younger pair?
- Full-back options: Walker’s pace vs Shaw’s crossing
Midfield Engine Room
The middle of the park is where games are won or lost. England has many talented midfielders. Who should control the tempo against DR Congo?
- Rice as the defensive anchor
- Bellingham’s box-to-box energy
- Creative spark from Maddison or Foden
- Maybe a two-man midfield to free up attackers?
Attack: Picking the Front Line
Up front, England has lethal options. Harry Kane is the obvious starter, but who joins him? Wide players and a second striker could change the game.
- Kane’s finishing and hold-up play
- Saka’s dribbling on the right
- Rashford’s pace on the left
- Should Tuchel go with a front three or a two-striker system?
