Bale, Kroos and Payet were considered players of their games... so they make sense

But you could put Modric, Pellè and Schär in there already too. Glik played really well for Poland...

so:

Sommer

Chiellini Schar Glik Alba

Modric Payet Kante Kroos

Bale Pellè

Everything based on stats. Defenders in because they scored a goal? This sounds like a Garth Crooks TOTW rather than the opinion of anyone who watched the games.

Ronaldo?? Couldn't even beat a "small team"!

I say this with some apprehension because it's likely that if he keeps this up we might not buy a midfielder... but Rooney has been fantastic in both games and deserves a spot on the team.

Rooney was poor in the 2nd game.

Edit: actually poor is harsh, he had a sloppy first half though, better in the second but certainly not team of the tournament worthy.

Struggling up front, no one's really stood out.

Especially considering Payet doesn't play up front, so you need an extra there as well :D

He registered more than double the amount of touches than the highest Wales player (103). He created six goalscoring chances (at least three more than any other player). He completed four dribbles (as many as Gareth Bale).

This anti Rooney rhetoric is quite tiresome. Frankly, it's boring. He's been easily one of our best players in both games and has played well so far. In the best team so far, probably not, but he's been anything but poor.
