Marcus Rashford – 6

Likewise, with Jones, Rashford would have been coming into the tournament hoping to play more than he has. Especially after he gave Southgate food for thought when he scored a screamer against Costa Rica in the warm-up game.

Had the 20-year old been given the nod over Raheem Sterling, who knows what Rashford could have achieved. Perhaps England would have made the final, or maybe they wouldn’t have even got as far as they did.

In his cameo appearances, Rashford has looked lively. But failed to take his chance when starting against Belgium their final group game. Therefore, he will be hoping to bag his first World Cup goal and seek revenge in the third-place play-off.
