Centre forward: Mario Balotelli (Italy). Having scored the winner against England, "Supermario" followed up with two ineffective performances in losses to Costa Rica and Uruguay. He missed two good early chances against the Central Americans which could have sent Italy's campaign in a completely different direction. The maverick striker did not help his cause by filling a Panini album with stickers of himself after the England game and posting a photograph of it on his Facebook page. Daniele De Rossi said after Italy's elimination: "We need real men, not Panini stickers or characters." (AFP Photo)
