Euro 2008 - Matthaeus: My dream team

Euro 2008 has seen many fine individual performances so far but with three games remaining, which players have been the cream of the crop?

(3-1-3-3 formation)

Iker Casillas (Spain) - "Usually you pick players who go very far in the competition, so for me Casillas is the goalkeeper of the tournament."



Philipp Lahm (German) - "Lahm has played well consistently. He puts a lot of pressure on opponents and embodies everything that a modern full-back should be in a successful team."

Ricardo Carvalho (Portugal) - "Carvalho is a very good central defender who has gained a lot of international experience with Chelsea."

Carles Puyol (Spain) - "The Spaniard has been very strong in the centre of defence."



Sergei Semak (Russia) - "I've included the captain of Russia because he is a team player and gives everything for his team. He plays the ball quickly, closes down space and controls the game from his defensive midfield position."



Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal) - "Ronaldo gets the nod, even though he was eliminated in the quarter-final. He's the best player in the world, a very good dribbler and a real goal threat."

Wesley Sneijder (Netherlands) - "Sneijder is a smart player and always looks for goals."

Bastien Schweinsteiger (Germany) - "When Schweinsteiger plays like he did against Portugal, he's as good as some of the greats who have played that position."



Andrei Arshavin (Russia) - "Arshavin is a fast player who takes part in every attack and is dangerous in front of goal."

Roman Pavlyuchenko (Russia) - "Pavlyuchenko is a player who is on the move for the entire 90 minutes. He's very fast and finds his way through into dangerous positions."

David Villa (Spain) - "Spain have two kinds of strikers - one is tall and big, the other one is mobile and clever. Villa, the latter, has already proved his instinct for goal with a hat-trick in the first game against Russia."



Manager: Guus Hiddink (Russia) - "I think Hiddink's side have played some good football so far and he has been the coach of the tournament so far."

Seems pretty fair to me, any other thoughts ?
