I saw Timo Werner who was a choice of mine...

Who are some others?

I think depending on England's performance, Dele Alli
Ousmane Dembele of France
Kelechi Iheanacho of Nigeria


Others?

Loftus-Cheek
Chucky Lozano. Ugh.
Milinkovic-Savic could prob ride a good WC into a huge move this summer.

This name made me curious so I googled the Serbian National Team. Came across Aleksander Mitrovic. How the frick is this guy still 23? Feels like he's been around since 2010 or something.

Third I don't bet, but if I did and there was a place to put some money on top scorer it would be Timo Werner for me. The only thing I say that would hold that back is if Germany get knocked out early as unlikely as I believe that is to happen.

Dembele was sold for over 100 mil last summer. How much higher can his “stock” really get?

When I think of someone that fits this criteria I think young player in either a smaller league or on a team that isn’t a traditional powerhouse. Like it or not, Hirving Lozano could be a guy that emerges. Nicolás Tagliafico for Argentina.

That is weird. Still sucked last i saw too. But this serbian team could be sneaky good at the cup.

I get where you're coming from, but he is already one of the most expensive transfers of all time, so I don't think his stock can go much higher.

I think he or Griezmann will be the top scorer but I went against the grain.
I think Croatia makes a run to the Semis like its 1998 and I think Mario Mandzukic channels his inner Davor Suker and is the top scorer

Tom Rogic, Australia


I would have said Mijat Gacinovic, but he's not going.

He has four years left on his deal. Lazio have no reason to sell unless someone offers more than what Barca paid for Coutinho.

If he has a huge World Cup someone may come calling and pay up. But I see him staying at least another year.

Dude is a fricking hoss.

Yeah, for the time being, Lazio owner Lotito seems set on the €100+ price tag he put on Milinkovic-Savic.

Not really absurd since he may have been the best player in Serie A this season.

He's had 2 straight seasons better than any season Pogba ever had with Juve.
