He has the least game time of all the English players in this list, with only 3 games played, but Dele Alli has 5 attempts on goal so far, with 2 of them on target, scoring one goal. He has attempted 100 passes and completed 75 of them and has also recovered the ball 12 times.

He has 2 deliveries and 2 dribbles into the penalty area and has attempted 3 crosses. But what will worry Croatia is his phenomenal understanding with Kane, his club mate.
Harry Kane
Kane and Alli know each other very well
With 6 goals to his name, Harry Kane is the top scorer of the tournament so far and quite rightly so. The England skipper has been leading his team from the front and Vida and Lovren will be having nightmares of him.
In the 4 games he played, Kane has 10 attempts on goal, with 6 of them on target. With such goalscoring form, there is no need to indulge in any other statistics, and England will be expecting goals from him against Croatia and he most likely will not disappoint.

About the author
Deepungsu Pandit
Deepungsu is a veteran football journalist who has been covering daily transfer roundups and news for over six years at Sportskeeda. He has written close to 9000 articles for the website, and has garnered over 19.5Million reads.
Deepungsu holds a PG degree in Microbiology and an MBA degree in Total Quality Management. He has an extensive two-decade long writing experience, which includes a decade of sports blogging. His writing prowess has even led his work getting cited on the legendary Franz Beckenbauer's Wikipedia page.
Inspired by Diego Maradona, Deepungsu played as an attacking midfielder for his local club at subdivision level in his initial years and scored an important goal or two. However, his all-time favorite footballer is Lionel Messi, and evidently, he feels Argentina's glory in 2022 is his favorite FIFA World Cup moment for fulfilling his long-standing dream. He is also an ardent East Bengal fan.
Deepungsu has been a Manchester United supporter since the year 2000. Unsurprisingly, his favorite manager is Sir Alex Ferguson and the Scotsman helped him get through some of the toughest days of his life. Like the fiery Scot, Deepungsu also leaves no stone unturned when it comes to accuracy in articles and only relies on credible sources.
Despite believing in Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland to create an iconic rivalry, Deepungsu reckons no one can match the longevity of Messi and Ronaldo. He spends his leisure time writing about life on his blog, reading books, and playing the guitar.
