#2 Worst - Danny Rose (England)

Danny Rose was handed a starting role by Gareth Southgate against Belgium in a bid to bolster their attacking options down the left flank but the move tremendously backfired as the full-back struggled to keep up with Thomas Meunier, who constantly made daring runs behind the Englishman.

Rose was caught napping as early as in the 4th minute during the build-up to Belgium's opening goal when he was indulged in ball watching and failed to notice Meunier's run from behind him that allowed the Belgian to find the back of the net.

There was no going back from that calamitous start for the Tottenham Hotspur man and he failed to get into the groove before being taken off at half-time, to cap off yet another disappointing outing for his country.
