After Spain's record-breaking victory over England in Berlin, Uefa's Technical Observer panel put their heads together to choose the best players at the tournament in Germany.

The panel, which includes big names such as Fabio Capello and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, certainly honoured the four-time champions by naming SIX Spain stars in the squad.

An entirely Spanish midfield trio of Rodri, Fabian Ruiz and Dani Olmo made up the heart of the team.

While their young wingers Lamine Yamal, 17, and Nico Williams, 22, were also part of the squad after racking up eight goal contributions between them.

Fans were certainly surprised to see that Walker had been named in squad, with many suggesting Spain's Dani Carvajal should have been chosen ahead of the 34-year-old at right-back.

On social media, one wrote: "No Dani Carvajal? Even rival fans agreed that he was class."
