    On the evidence of what you have seen so far, feel free to share your thoughts for team of the tournament. Here's mine atm:

    Courtois
    Caceres---Godin---Granqvist---Young
    Kante---Modric---Rakitic
    Lukaku---Ronaldo---Cavani
    I haven't been impressed by any right-backs as of yet, but Caceres worked harder than anyone and was dependable deputy who could cause his opponents problems on the offensive end too. At left-back too I thought maybe Pavard, perhaps Laxalt, but Young has always made the correct decisions. He's struck me as the smartest left-back in this tournament and the paciest.

    I would wait until the tournament is over before posting a team as what happens in the semi and final will change everything.

    From an England point of view Kane has to be there, top goal scorer but also his general performances have been good.

    Trippier has to be in contention too but I agree Caceres had a really good tournament.

    Mbappe could force his way in too.

    I figured most of the excitement would subside by the time the tournament had ended and fewer people would be interested in the topic.

    In any case, I'd make two changes to the team I had. Mbappe for Lukaku and Trippier for Caceres. Pavard, I should point out, is in fact a right-back (not a left-back as I had previously remarked).

    On another point, I don't think anyone should feel compelled to pick a team according to a 4-3-3 formation. Choose any formation you should wish.

    Here is my "dream team":

    Courtois
    Caceres---Varane---Mina---Nagatomo
    Modric---Kante---Griezmann---Hazard
    Mbappe---C.Ronaldo
    And here is a list with two alternative names for each position:

    Courtois (Schmeichel, Cho)
    Caceres (Fernandes, Pavard)
    Varane, Mina (Yoshida, Miranda, Godin, Vida)
    Nagatomo (R.Rodriguez, Marcelo)
    Modric (De Bruyne, Messi)
    Kante (Casemiro, Pogba)
    Griezmann (Coutinho, Golovin)
    Hazard (Perisic, Cheryshev)
    Mbappe, C.Ronaldo (Neymar, Lukaku, Cavani, Kane)

    Not understanding how Meunier isn’t the RB for everyone. He was clearly the best RB in the WC
