Players who've impressed at this WC

[SpencerH]

So who's impressed you so far?

For me the players who've stood out have been Messi (Argentina), Forlan (Uruguay), Carlos Salcido and Giovani dos Santos (both of Mexico).

Special mention goes to Maradona, who may just inspire Argentina to win it all.

[Dauphin]

Anelka and Domenech.

[SpencerH]

I should mention that I've never seen any of the guys I mentioned play before (aside from Maradona) cos I live in a football black hole.

Terry and Capello.

[Dauphin]

Capello is Bo Selecta!

[Drake Tungsten]

Propa-bo, he is.

[duke o' york]

Asamoah Gyan, the entire North Korea squad for failing to dive or whinge, Park Chu-yung, Mesut Ozil.

[Frozzy]

Messi and Forlan I already had high expectations of.

Vincent Enyeama I did NOT but was just outstanding in Nigeria's first two games.

[Kitschum]

I came to post Enyeama.

Elano (hope he got better) impressed in Brazil, Pienaar in South Africa, Winston Reid in New Zealand

[Tuberski]

Landon Donovan. The duck foot came through twice this round.

ACK!

[aaglo]

Forlan (Uruguay)
Donovan (USA)
Tzorvas (Greece, quite amazing goalkeeper in the game against Argentina)
Özil (Germany)

[Kitschum]

Have to add Vittek now I think

[Krill]

Nelson from Kiwiland

[SpencerH]

I'm adding Honda after the whoopin Japan has given Danmark. His freekick for the first goal is the best in the WC so far and his assist on the 3rd goal was brilliant (and unselfish).

[Frozzy]

I'll add Richard Kingson. I was convinced he'd do something laughably awful like have the ball bounce over his head or something, but he hasn't, so fair play to him.
