Like his Dynamo Kiev team-mate Ruslan Rotan, Oleg Gusev is seen as the future of Ukrainian football.

He was a key man in the impressive qualification campaign, scoring one goal from 11 midfield appearances.

Despite his impressive displays, he is not assured of a starting position but could prove to be one of the surprise stars of the tournament if given the chance to shine.
