According to available data, only 24.1% of players in the top-flight league are eligible for England selection, which is the lowest percentage on record.

However, Tuchel has expressed his optimism about the situation, saying, "Yes, sometimes that happens."

He went on to explain that the lack of local talent is not a concern for him, and that he believes quality players will always find a way to succeed.

Tuchel's comments reflect his background in club football, where he emphasizes the importance of hard work and determination in achieving success.

He believes that players who are talented and deserving of a place in the team will ultimately get their chance, regardless of their nationality.
