Euro 2016 is becoming the tournament of frustrated star strikers




Thomas Muller, remember him? The guy who scored 36 goals in 59 appearances in the Bundesliga last season.
What about Cristiano Ronaldo, he used to be impressive. 35 goals in 36 games in La Liga, wasn't it?

That's without mentioning Harry Kane and Jamie Vardy, who battled it out for the Premier League's golden boot all last season.
