I pretty much agree, but I'd have Hazard for Lukaku.

Hazard Ronaldo Messi
Cheryshev Modric Kante Inui
Varane Godin Mina
Courtois

ronaldo & messi? really?

the rest of them, though, i can get behind

Trippier has been excellent

The Croat keeper too

I mean, Kane probably hasn’t even been in the top 5 or 6 for England.

He has - certainly the best England player imo.

Really. 

I mean Ronaldo only scored a hat-trick against Spain and then followed it up with the winner in the next game; whereas Mbappe who will probably be in most people's teams had one awesome game against Argentina but has been average in his other games. 

Messi was more borderline, was tempted to put in De Bruyne there for his performance against Brazil, but he has been fairly ordinary otherwise. Still though, nobody questions Modric's inclusion because his quality has shown through consistently. Messi's did in every game he played as well; though unlike Modric, he had a shower of absolute retards like Otamendi behind him.

Otamendi was amazing. Your team just scores to open up the game 3-4 with four minutes left, France look seriously wobbly and what do you do? Start a fight to completely kill any momentum your team had

Coutinho sucked the last couple of games, ball hog shot merchant who missed a huge chance to level vs. Belgium. Would turf him out.

I'd have called it an unforgivable miss, but he'd just played the cross (twas a peach) to help them get a goal closer.

Who would you pick in his place?

Pickford
Mina
Godin
Granquist
Trippier
Modric
Isco
De Bruyne
Hazard
Lukaku
Mbappe

MVP so far: Hazard

only tough pick is Mbappe vs Inui

yeah, i wouldnt have him anywhere near the TOTT.. no one in the Spanish side would get near it..

Isco was absolutely great for Spain, pretty much carried them every match.

well, they won 1 game in the tournament (1-0.... v. Iran), so that isnt telling me much of anything..

It shouldn't tell you much of anything either, because you shouldn't base your opinions on that. Players can play brilliantly and lose, because it's a team game.

He was the cream of curdled milk, pass.

Pickford

Pavard Godin Varane

Trippier Modrić Kanté Hazard

Mbappé Kane Cheryshev
