My Ideal XI Of the Eurocopa - (Malume’ IX)
INTRODUCTION
Created with #allfootball app
The Euros is an interesting tournament and like everyone I have my personal ideal eleven from the players participating and it goes like this
Formation -(4-2-3-1)
The players involved are :
source
Gianluigi Donnarumma (ITALY)
The young talent shot stopper who is very good and has lot of experience having playing almost 200 times for his old club Ac Milan at the age of 22. Coupled with his good shot keeping ability , he has a good defense in this euros which boasts the Italian wall consisting of Bonucci and Chellini

Raphaël Varane(FRANCE)
A World Cup winner with France and a serial winner with Real Madrid . Still buzzing with energy. His pace and good reading of the game puts him above other defenders in the Euros .

Leonardo Bonucci( ITALY)

Also a World Cup winner but this time around with Italy 2006. The younger of the two part components of the great Italian wall. People would overlook him due to his age but he still offers a lot on the pitch coupled with his expertise and ability to read the game .
source
Joshua Kimmich (GERMANY)
A very versatile player that can play in various positions from right back to defensive midfielder . He gives top notch deliveries . A world beater that Germany has right there . They would be really relying on his talent going forward
source
Leonardo Spinazzola( ITALY)
The Roma - defender although right footed has been a revelation for Italy . He has been an attack moving forward and also covering up defensively . Italy already has two clean sheets from two games in the competition and it is down to both the defenders and the goal keepers efforts
source
Ngolo Kante (FRANCE)

A World Cup winner with France, full of energy and good reading of the game too. He recently won the champions league with Chelsea where he displayed his great tackling abilities and tidying up game play. He is good at breaking up attacks and starting one off too. He is defiantly one of the best midfielders in the world
source
Jorginho (ITALY)

I know a lot of people will think I am trying to recreate Chelsea midfield but I feel there is no one better to compliment kante in midfield than the calm and tidy Jorginho . His long range passing and distribution and ability to get dirty in order to get the ball and he sits well would give my defense proper covering while making sure the ball moves well
source
Luka Modric (MODRIC)
An old gem in football and a ballon d’ or winner . His country depends heavily on him to make their game play work out and he delivers pretty well with his work rate , assists and goals .
source
Christiano Ronaldo(PORTUGAL)
An iconic footballer if not the greatest player of all time. He is also a record breaker. After breaking most goals in Euros And also setting the record for most euros appeared in . I am sure he will be gunning to break another record in his sights which is the highest international player. A man with a mission defiantly need to be feared more
source
Romelu Lukaku (BELGIUM)
The Belgium beast . A complete forward who delivers the goals and assists consistently now . Since leaving Man U , his all round game have improved significantly and when he plays for his country you tend to see something more than a beast , he has 25 goal contribution for his country in the last 20 appearances
source
Kylian Mbappe( FRANCE)
One of the most sort after youngster in the world who cost PSG loads of money. A World Cup winner too with France . He is blessed with very amazing pace and finishing . He is always a torn on almost every defense he faced . He will be a hard one to contain .
Notable absentees ; Robert lewandoski ( Poland), Karim Benzema (France ), Müller (Germany ), Pogba (France).
With this my proposed formation I am going for a good defensive setup and an explosive attack . I get to have lots of clean sheets with lots of goals .
Thank you for reading.
