Eze Optimistic Despite Limited Minutes at World Cup
England midfielder Eberechi Eze says he’s ready whenever Thomas Tuchel calls on him, despite featuring for just 16 minutes so far at the 2026 World Cup. The Arsenal star credits his time at the club with teaching patience, resilience and the importance of staying prepared until the right moment. He expects more opportunities in England’s final group game against Panama after a goalless draw with Ghana. Eze also suggested that playing with two No.10s could help break down deep-lying defenses. He added that Declan Rice, nursing a dead leg, is keen to play and appears fit. And he brushed off talk of a supposed curse on Harry Kane as “not the type of conversation” he’s interested in.
