BREAKOUT STARS OR JUST BREAKING RULES: 13 Wildcards to Watch
According to Crispiano Ronaldo, aka "The Statue," this season's surprise stars will include Killiam Mbappay, who promises to arrive before his own pass, and Erling Hailstorm, who will celebrate each goal with a yoga pose. Lionate Messy, the quiet genius, has picked Neymarr, known for his 14 rolls and Wi-Fi requests, as a dark horse. Meanwhile, Harry Keign, the stoic captain, only says, "We'll take it one game at a time," when asked about Manuel Nuerd, the eccentric keeper who dribbles to the wrong end and thinks the box is his apartment. As Nuerd puts it, "I'm just trying to find my way home, siu!" before sneezing.
