Uefa's team of the tournament

[Nathan]

Joe Allen + Aaron Ramsey...really?

 

[Gazwag]

4 Portugal players - just goes to show how very poor the standard of the tournament was

 

[Triggaaar]

No one from Italy or Croatia good enough?

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Bale was better than Ronaldo, IMO.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Bale was better than Ronaldo, IMO.

Neither should be near this team

 

[perseus]

I did not have the heart to chose a team. Players I noted though:

GK: Łukasz Fabiański (Swansea & Poland)
Manuel Neuer (Real Madrid & Germany)
David de Gea (Man U & Spain)
Hugo Lloris (Tottenham & Portugal)
RB Toby Alderweireld (Tottenham & Belgium)
CD Giorgio Chiellini (Juventus & Italy)
CD Jérôme Boateng (Bayern Munich & Germany)
CD Pepe (Read Madrid & Portugal)
LB Ricardo Rodríguez (Wolfsburg & Switzerland)
LB Neil Taylor (Swansea & Wales)

CM: Xherdan Shaqiri (Stoke & Switzerland)
CM Luka Modrić (Real Madrid & Croatia)
AM Renato Sanches (Bayern Munich & Portugal)
AM Paul Pogba (Juventus & France)
AM Dimitri Payet (West Ham & France)
AM Mesut Özil (Arsenal & Germany)
AM Eden Hazard (Chelsea & Belgium)
RW Gareth Bale (Real Madrid & Wales)

ST Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid & Portugal)
TM Graziano Pellè (Southampton & Italy)
LW Julian Draxler (Wolfsburg & Germany)
LW Kevin De Bruyne (Man City & Belgium)


Coach Antonio Conte (Chelsea & Italy)

Chiellini and Bonucci would be in my XI, I thought Joe Allen was a walking red card vs. Portugal, he was outclassed and lucky to stay on the pitch. I'd rather have had Naingollan as CM in that position.

I though Kimmich and Boateng were pretty ordinary too.

I think that team underlines that it was a fairly low quality tournament. I do agree, however, that no England players are anywhere near that 1st XI list.

 

[crabface]

Ronaldo would have made the list even if he didnt play a game.

How there are that many Portugese players is baffling when they won only one game inside 90 minutes.

Chiellini getting overlooked is madness.

Joe Allen + Aaron Ramsey...really?

I agree about Joe Allen but Ramsey was Wales's best player by far(despite the media ******* over Bale) and fully deserves to be there.

edit:Is the word w a n k i n g really worth starring out?

 

[Gabbafella]

I'm surprised they found XI players that warranted the making of a team of the tournament.
Worst tournament I've ever endured.

 

[atfc village]

Payet did nothing in the last two games.

Hugo lloris (Portugal)

 

[Marshy]

Payet did nothing in the last two games.

They should have left him on in both in my opinion...

 

[Bladders]

I thought everybody was RUBBISH!

 

[Murray 17]

Payet did nothing in the last two games.

Unless you include crocking Ronaldo!

 

[drop dead fred]

Hugo lloris (Portugal)

Manuel Neuer (Real Madrid & Germany) ??

When did this happen ??

 

[yxee]

Joe Allen !!!

 

[beorhthelm]

Ramsey is a good shout, did really run the show while alot of limelight was on Bale. Portugese players, well its their defense so thats not too bad, Pepe was solid. bit of a difficult one as most top players follwed the Payet model, couple of outstanding gmes then little of note.

 

[Durlston]

Poland's Jakub Blaszczykowski.

Was brilliant in all their games and if they'd won their penalty shoot-out, the Poles would've made the semis - beating Portugal.

 

[atfc village]

Ashley Williams, Wales's player of the tournament for me.
