    If you exclude Park Ji Sung and Lee Chun Soo for their appearances in the last WC, I would suggest adding in Lee San(West Ham United) and Yeo Hyo-jin (Korea University?).

    I'm not sure how to do Spain's, because a lot of the players that are still young are already household names.

    1. Iker Casillas (age 21, Real Madrid)
    2. Joaquin Sanchez (age 21, Real Betis)
    3. Vicente Rodriguez (age 20, Valencia)
    4. Fernando Torres (age 19, Atletico Madrid)
    5. Jose Antonio Reyes (age 19, Sevilla)

    Whatever happened to Jonathan Blondel? There was some buzz surrounding him right after his move to Tottenham, but he seems to have fallen off the face of the earth since.
