@@yessi1585 she clearly doesn't like being in the back seat and thinks her football knowledge is better than everyone else's just because she has football shirts from the Vietnamese 2nd division.
People are complaining about players like Wirtz or Palmer as they are already stars but breakout stars means they're gonna be well known names everywhere. Right now casual football fans in Germany don't know Palmer and casual football fans in England don't know Wirtz. This would change drastically if they play well at the Euros because anyone who has even just a little bit of interest in football is watching the big international tournaments.
@@brendanm4179 If you haven't heard about Wirtz or lamine yamal yet it's not because they haven't had their break out, it's because you haven't been paying attention. I don't really watch or care about the premier league that much apart from a few top games, but I still know how well Cole palmer is doing. Whether a player has broken out should not be depending on the attention span of a few casuals but on the general recognition by people who actually follow the game.
@fdm698 Doesn't follow the best league in the world but has a go at people for being casual and not following football? Wirtz is nowhere near the most in form player in Europe. The delusion and bias is unbelievable, Phil Foden is playing at a far higher level and is just as consistent. From someone who is a huge fan of Wirtz. Bayern being most in form is also arguable, Sporting? Inter?
Agreed. Nothing about him is breakout. Maybe to close minded prem fans. But Wirtz had his breakout, and is just now one the smartest attacking mids in world football.
A lot of talk around females in football punditry at the minute. Joey Barton made some comments that, unfortunately, I think have some credibility in regards some ex female players. But Joey needs to tune into Saturday Social because for me Niamh is right up there with the best guests. Well done, Niamh 👌
@@leao1012Sesko is very young but imo his finishing is quite poor. Openda is not clinical as well where he misses clear cut chances for a striker but he has the pace and ball skills to create some chances for himself. Also Sesko has 7 goals in a team with 60 goals this season as a striker who has started most games. If you know Bundesliga's weak defending and how good Leipzig's creative players like Olmo/Xavi Simmons are, the strikers get so many chances. Sesko has been underperforming his xg but with that context its even worse. That being said he is only 20, its his first season in a big league, that's always hard. So he definitely could have major improvement in the next 1-2 season.
Real lack of defenders here. Antonio Silva for Portugal deserves a shout imo. Also if Writz isn't already classed as a star then surely Frimpong should be on the list for the Dutch. Been absolutely ridiculous this season but only has a handful of caps so far.
Think Nieve is spot on for mentioning braithwaite. England have a big issue with centre backs that and keeper are there big weakness and stones needs a centre back partner and maguire could be a big issue against some quicker forwards and braithwaite could fill it well.
João Neves is one to watch in Euro. This guy is insane at this age, absolutely machine in the midfield and was the best player in Benfica squad this season. It’s hard to get many minutes in the competition because we have Bruno, Vitinha, Ruben Neves, Bernardo, João Palhinha but is not impossible to shine in this Euro2024
As a Dane I can almost guarantee you that Matt O’riley won’t break out at the euros, because Hjulmand is not gonna play him. He’s 23 and still only has one appearance… and that’s because our manager prefers to play old finished players (legends tbf) rather than switching it up.
I personally want to see Matt O'Riley do well for Denmark, but I don't think he's going to get picked as long as Hjulmand is the coach. Hjulmand seems to want to keep "the core" of the Denmark team together by including players such as Yussuf Poulsen, in my opinion to the detriment of the team, instead of other players with more match-time.
Definitely his break out season though. His injury held him back from global recognition. Obviously ppl who live and consume football have been aware of him for a while
@@XJokermanX well depends on how you define breakout stars. On the international level they certainly are, on club level only a few of the 10 players mentioned in the video are.
I reckon Jayden Danns at Anfield could prove a real gem in the weeks and months to come. Obviously an awful lot will depend on who Liverpool are able to get as their new manager. But I have heard that those who have seen him performing at youth level reckon he is the best striker to come out of the Academy who is actually from Merseyside since the days of Fowler and Owen. Lewis Koumas is another one who is worth watching out for and Bobby Clark.
Been saying it since Germany got knocked out of the wc but I think they win the euros, I just got a feeling with them being the hosts, plus after watching so much of wirtz in musiala o don't see a better duo Edit: my semis are germany vs Portugal and England vs Netherlands
Many things I don't agree with, but Palmer over Zaire-Emery and Simons is mad😂 Simons will be a regular starter and Emery will feature in every game 4 sure. I doubt Palmer will play more than maybe 180 minutes...
João Neves should get minutes for sure, but besides those who were mentioned, there´s also Vitinha, Otávio , Matheus Nunes, Ruben Neves, all of these guys play more or less in the same position as joão neves. I´ve never seen such amount of talent in the portuguese squad per position EVER, it´s absolutely insane. As for portuguese players that could potentially breakout during the tournament as well, you have Antonio Silva and Gonçalo Inácio, both top central defenders. Also, growing rapidly is Francisco Conceição and Francisco Trincão, both could be called to the Euro as they are playing some amazing football in our league. I really can´t see a stronger team in Europe right now.
Our starboy. Palmer. I dont know why people are hating on the boy. He is techically brilliant, has vision, can pass, can score ,can dribble, can assist, can link up play. What else do you want from a player. Should he kill himself for you guys before you can appreciate him?.
Joao Neves probably wont even make the roster if we being honest. Palhinha, Danilo Pereira, Natheus Nunes, Vitinha, Bruno, Bernardo. They play double pivot with Bruno up top. Palhinha and Vitinha at pivot and Bruno at CAM and Bernardo at RW

Majority of these players have already broken through though 🤷♂️ how can you choose Madrid players or players that are well known for having great seasons.
Wirtz is the best player in the bundesliga, Musiala best player at Barca, Palmer Chelsea´s best player, CDK won´t get minutes if he´s even on the plane, Zaïre-Emery started in about 70% of PSG´s games this season... break-out stars, really?
Jesus mate, it isn't about being break out stars in general, it's specifically focused on their national team and NONE of these players are regulars, or in some cases have even started, for their respective national teams.
