With England's Euro 2008 hopes resting on Wednesday's final showdown with Croatia,
skysports.com picks out the players to watch
VEDRAN CORLUKA
Intelligent right-back with composure beyond his years. Signed by Sven Goran Eriksson in the summer, he has made a smooth transition to life at Manchester City. England must hope Corluka endures a repeat of his nightmare against Chelsea earlier this season.
NIKO KOVAC
Ageing captain who remains an integral factor in the national team set-up. Coach Slaven Bilic's on-field lieutenant, the Red Bull Salzburg midfielder has a creative eye to compliment his industrious nature.
DARIJO SRNA
Hardened right-sided midfielder who has impressed at Shakhtar Donetsk since moving to Ukraine from Hadjuk Split. Capable of playing at full-back, the 25-year-old is already a 51-cap veteran with 15 goals.
NIKO KRANJCAR
Midfield playmaker and son of former Croatia coach Zlatko. Kranjcar took time to adjust to life in the Premier League but has performed well for Portsmouth this season and is at ease within Bilic's well-drilled, experienced team.
EDUARDO DA SILVA
Brazilian-born striker with a great goalscoring record of 13 goals in 20 games. The Arsenal striker trails only David Healy in the Euro 2008 qualifying scoring charts.
