Surprise players

Post by raggy »

Any players our there people think will be a surprise hit? Light it up a bit?
Someone unknown going to light it up and do really well?

Got the Russian striker Dzuyba, think that's how you spell him got 8 in 8 in the qualifiers so may do something..

Who are you guys setting out to watch as a dark horse?

If he plays then Portugal's Renato Sanches. Just signed for Bayern from Benfica. Only 18 and is class.

Arkadiusz Milik. No, not the fella who did your roof last year, but a Polish striker who has scored 21 goals in the league for Ajax. Playing just off Lewandowski, Milik could be a real hit. Only in his early 20s as well.

Marcelo Brozovic. Young Croatian midfielder who plays for Inter. Has a workman-like game and scores goals.

Coric.

Might not start but will impress when he's on the pitch.

Croatia as a dark horse, their midfield is absolute class with Mandzukic in front of them

Emre Mor looked decent for Turkey yesterday, 18 and technically gifted.

Hal Robson-Kanu was released by Reading, with a point to prove and a goal to his name already I think he might spring another surprise or two..........I hope!
