Eden Hazard, Belgium
When you look at the Belgium team-sheet, you think how can these guys have not won anything in recent times? They have an exquisite collection of individuals, but in order to climb the rungs of the World Cup, you need to play as a team. Hazard’s leadership qualities will be as important as his silky skills in trying to provide his team-mates with the impetus to play for each other and win as a unit.
His Wheels: Hazard is capable of pulling some absolutely bonkers moves on the field and his coolest car off it is just as bonkers. He is the proud owner of a Mercedes-AMG GT R and just as his feet often weave art, the GT R is capable of creating poetry on wheels.

Harry Kane, England
England’s hopes of finally reclaiming the trophy for the sport they invented rest on the shoulders of Tottenham sharp-shooter Harry Kane. We know Kane’s good for putting the pressure on, but will he be able to bear the weight of an entire nation’s dreams or will he crumble like his club’s title hopes in Russia? We think that if England get anywhere in the World Cup, it would be highly likely that Kane had a major part in that success.
His Wheels: Kane is clearly all about patriotism, because his prized possession is a Jaguar F-Pace. Cliché though it may be for a Premiership footballer to have a sporty SUV, it suits Kane’s unflappable, workhorse-like style to the tee.
