DCL really is an enigma. His movement and runs are causing all sorts of problems for the costa rican defence but then whenever he gets in those good positions his actual ability on the ball is very poor.

You would think it's a bit of nerves if it happens now and then but it's pretty much summed him up so far for us and England, it's like his brain and legs disconnect as soon as the ball is at his feet.

Despite that he's still looking head and shoulders above Solanke, no idea whats happened to that lad, looked phenomenal at U17 level a couple of years ago now he looks disinterested completely.

Lookman looking dangerous any time he gets the ball, Kenny just being his usual solid self and Dowell growing into the game but needs to go looking for the ball a bit more.

DCL a young Dirk Kuyt perhaps. Gets goals, makes the right runs, does what his manager asks but seems to have no technical ability.
