Brazilian-born Spanish U21 striker playing for Benfica.

In about 6 minutes he tore Denmarks U21 in their Euro 2013 play-off a new one with a beautiful hattrick playing alongside Isco, Muniain and Tello amongst others.

He looks absolutely lethal in front of goal this lad and has also scored a lot for Benfica this Season wiki tells me. His third hattrick on Spains way to the U21 Euros in Israel next Summer apparently.

To be honest, I knew nothing of him before tonight, anyone seen him in action?
 
Saw him a few times last season without being impressed, sounds like he has improved quite a lot.

Well, this Danish U21 is pretty dire looking to be honest, but he certainly looks razor sharp in front of goal. Amazingly powerful shot.
 
Never heard of this guy but I'd definitely take the other three Spanish players you mentioned.
 
Never heard of him. Wiki says he had a season on loan at Bolton 2 years ago, scored 1 in 17. Stats since are good mind.
 
I saw him a few times last season, and he looked pretty ordinary. Maybe he's improved.

I'll tell you who's looking impressive - that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang lad at St. Etienne. Watch this space.

Isco looks a proper world class talent indeed and Tello is a very interesting player as well. I am not sold on Muniain yet.

I'd have Eriksen over Isco from what little I've seen as the former seems the more developed player (which makes sense baring in mind how many games he has had at senior level already) and more physically adjust for the Premiserhip as well. Isco is build more like Suso and certainly needs to beef up a bit over the coming years. Could become a Fabregas-like type perhaps, deadly when roaming in behind the frontman.

Personally, even for his obvious talent, I don't think Tello's got much on Sterling if anything at all which only for me underlines the altitude of Raheem's talent.

This Rodrigo bloke, based mainly by his game last night, will shine at the biggest stage one day. Really powerful and extremely clinical in front of goal and he seems to ooze more confident than most as well. Looked a cheeky sod but in a good way if that makes any sense at all. The kind of cheekyness you like to see in your frontman.
