Sometime it’s hard to judge the player star status before any major tournament like Euro, World Cup and Copa America. Do you still remember Karel Poborsky, Patrick Berger, Smicer fame rose from nowhere just because the performance in Euro 1996. So do the Roger Milla and Toto Schillaci (at the end of playing career) in World Cup 1990.

Fernando Torres is absolutely golden. If Spain get past the quarters, it will be undoubtedly because of him. Sergio Ramos is a rock. He made a few U.S. forwards look rather dumb in their friendly last week.
De Rossi looks to be Pirlo’s replacement. I feel he has enough ability.
Love the list, agree with almost all of them.
Any predictions to stick your neck out for?
