00:00I'll first start off with La Minimal. I think this is his real tournament to go

00:11there and have a real real breakthrough. He did very well in the Euros, but this

00:17is the one where I think he's a player that's built for it, you know, he loves

00:20the pressure, he loves to just go out there and just express himself and enjoy

00:25his football.

00:26Because Mbappé is a very important figure, he's growing a lot. Haaland can also be a

00:35great character, but I think Mbappé is enjoying this moment with a lot of

00:43will, he's growing every game, every championship, and I think he can be a great

00:50world again.

00:51Jude Bellingham is someone you've got to worry about. Again, I think it's just making

00:54sure the team functions in the right way that can support the players that the

00:58manager picks and that's hugely important. He showed at the last tournament and he

01:02showed since then with Real Madrid when Real Madrid won the European World War

01:05won a Champions League. He was an integral member in that team.

01:08I'm going to stick to the US and I think we need to see Christian Pulisic. I think we've

01:14seen him at the club level, we've seen him do what he's done at AC Milan. Now we need

01:19to see him put this team on his back and see what he can do on that big stage.

01:24I like that Haaland can probably surprise him, he can be a great world. I think Haaland,

01:31in my opinion, is the one who can shine in this world.

01:36Obviously, I have to talk a little bit about Canada and I'm a real big fan of Ismael Kone.

01:43He's a very talented player and he's good at the ball going both ways. He likes to help

01:51the team out in attack. He's maturing as a player and I think this is the real tournament

01:56for him to go out there and really make a name for himself.
