Chukwuemeka has been England's star turn at the Euros so far this summer, delivering two goals and two assists in the group stages after his breakout season with Aston Villa. He made 12 appearances in the Premier League this season, and his experience at senior level seems to be setting him apart from his contemporaries in Slovakia.

Chukwuemeka's imposing frame coupled with his close control of the ball make it almost impossible for rivals to shrug him off the ball inside the area. And his goal in the 4-0 win over Serbia - steering the ball beyond the goalkeeper with a side-footed effort - showed he is no slouch when it comes to finishing.
