No one player has really stood out for me, but the likes of Modric and Hazard have had a pretty good tournament. Varane and Griezmann have been impressive for France while KdB has also done well. Kante has also put up a good show, which is what he really does pretty much all the time. Mbappe has been really impressive in the last few big games. Kane and Lukaku have been good but couldn't finish the tournament on a high.

Who do you think will the Golden Ball?
 
Really tight for me between 5 players - Hazard, Modric, Mbappe, Griezmann & Varane.

As of now, probably I'll go with Hazard and Mbappe as the best young player. If Modric can win it in final or Griezmann has another outstanding game; I might change my opinion.
 
Besides the other contendors Trippier would have to be up there as well
 
Mbappe will win it if France wins WC

Modric will win it if Croatia wins WC

So Mbappe will win it
 
I guess it depends on what happens in the final, but for me so far it's been Modric.

His vision, his passing, his calmness, his positional sense, his composure on the ball, his game awareness have all been superb.
 
Silver and Bronze? 2nd and 3rd best players?
