Came on as sub in one, started one and no involvement in the last one.Lamptey - never watched them but seems to have established himself as a starter in a decent team? 7 / 10 ?

............ and was subbed off in the one he did start.Came on as sub in one, started one and no involvement in the last one.
I would agree with this, Lamptey is the only one who comes back with a negative report.....For me, those who 'stepped up a level' in International terms (although obviously we've all known for ages)
MacAllister
Caicedo
Estupinan
Mitoma
I think he's got to grasp his moment when he comes back. Could be in line for a big move in the summer, and with Eden Hazard retiring from international football, there is a Belgian first team place waiting for him.I'm hoping Trossard is going to be on fire when we re-start.
He has been before when he's returned from a time with Belgium.
Blue tinted specs? Compare your ratings with The Guardian.Estupinan possibly the best LB at the tournament in the handful of games 9.5 / 10
Caicedo a DM who scored - solid 8/10
Sarmiento hardly featured but looked good off the bench
Mitoma - they kept loosing first half then bringing him on and winning or that was the feeling anyway - 8.5 / 10
MacAllister - MotM but not given it or discussed as commentator’s obsession was playing. Solid other games and kept his place in a good side who are playing well 8 / 10
Sanchez didn’t play
Lamptey - never watched them but seems to have established himself as a starter in a decent team? 7 / 10 ?
Trossard similarly I’ve not watched much. Aging squad, underperforming, but he sounds like part of the next generation and establishing himself so 6.5 / 10 ? Since hasn’t gotten goals or assists?
Messi actually passed the official FIFA MOM award onto Mac Allister in recognition of his performance against Poland. He's not all bad that Messi chap and was cleraly righting a wrong by the FIFA panel that does MOM awards.MacAllister - MotM but not given it or discussed as commentator’s obsession was playing.
I think the BBC ratings were a bit higher than the Grauniad's too.Blue tinted specs? Compare your ratings with The Guardian.

Yes, I love the BBC ratings by the fans. I noticed in one of the Ecuador match that Sarmiento, Caicedo and Estupiñán all had ratings of 8/9 when all the other players had 6s and 7s!I think the BBC ratings were a bit higher than the Grauniad's too.
Assuming he trained as well in the camp as he plays for us, I'd suspect Sanchez is a step closer to the Spanish No. 1 Jersey now than he was at the start of the WCI don't think any of their stock fell. I think Trossard and Sanchez (possibly Lamptey) seen as about the same as before the tournament. Everyone else safe to say their stock has risen?

I don't think any of our players have disgraced themselves. A vast majority showed the world what we already knew. Pervis really impressed me with his LB/LWB performances for Ecuador. Trossard was a but disappointing but given the unrest in the Belgium camp I still think he did ok.
Yep, Messi was also the only player to initially go over to Martinez at the end of the penalty shoot out against Netherlands while the rest of the team ran to the other corner of the pitch to celebrate with their fans. He gets a lot of flack because the commentary and narrative tends to be about him but he does seem like a decent chap supportive of his team mates etc like any captain should be.I hadn’t heard about Messi’s generous gesture. What a contrast in behaviour and attitude to the other so-called ‘superstar’, late of Man.Utd.
Sanchez is likely, barring injuries, to have a very long wait. Simon is a very good GK, firmly established as Spain's no.1 - and only five months older than Big Bob.Assuming he trained as well in the camp as he plays for us, I'd suspect Sanchez is a step closer to the Spanish No. 1 Jersey now than he was at the start of the WC
I have always liked this lad he just quietly use his talent to destroying players and teams. When as the other short Argentian lad a few years ago was just a jester.Yep, Messi was also the only player to initially go over to Martinez at the end of the penalty shoot out against Netherlands while the rest of the team ran to the other corner of the pitch to celebrate with their fans.
