Ones to watch...

From the three teams we've seen...these are the players i think have a huge future...

ENGLAND -

Scott Carson -

England u21 keeper and also squad member in the first team should be challenging Robinson for the national no.1 jersey SHOULD Rafael Benitez give him a chance. He was superb for Charlton and made several top draw saves in his games, best we've seen was from the Czech freekick in game1.

Ashley Young -

Aston Villa's pacey left winger was a constant threat for both the Czechs and the Italians. Though was banned from the Serbia match after collecting 2 yellow cards. Why i think he has a big future...he plays on the left!

Leighton Baines -

Better than Cashley Cole, and has one hell of a shot on him. To get into the first team squad though i think he needs a move to a bigger club.



Italy

Guiseppe Rossi -

Came on at half time against us and was simply sublime, same applies for the first half last night.
Fergie will be making a big mistake if he lets him go, he could well be worth ALOT in a few years and could save United a bucket load of midfield.

Alberton Aqualini -

I think thats how to spell it, he was simply awesome last night, everything good the Italians did envolved either him or Rossi. I would say he capped it off with top draw free-kick, but he did that after 4mins. Currently playing in the SerieA for AS Roma, should he keep playing regularly it cant be long before he's playing alongside Totti and Gattuso in the first team.


As for the Czechs, none of them stood out!

I may add another post with some Dutch players after the semi!
