In reply to Post #332 It was a hopeful punt Jim
I clearly missed the fact that Germany are very good and Scotland are very not

Personally I thought England looked absolutely brilliant 1st half ( That's high praise from me) 2nd half was a shambles. Watched the matches today, Ukraine never turned up, Romania have learned how to score goals again 🤣
Slovakia, amazing , Belgium....that good.. lol....not!
Well done Slovakia 👌

Thought England were far to casual first half and should have wrapped it up. Foden was a headless chicken. Was good to see Trent where he should be to ping the ball about, shame he didn't though. Jude's a great player but I think he does too much and it affects other players positioning. Should just concentrate on doing simple things well. Connor Gallagher? Really? He's crap. Still, on to the next match against the Danes who will have a point to prove. 🤞

I watched the game in a bar that were giving away shots every time england scored.
After 15 minutes I thought I was going to leave pissed.
Instead I was subjected to a gradual torture.
We should have annihilated them but instead we let them into the game.
Do that against one of the better teams and we're done for.

In reply to Post #335 Foden never turns up for England, eze needs to start and be given a chance. Kane obviously an awesome finisher usually but he's bot fast enough and plays too deep for England so when the counter happens he can't keep up. Bellingham was class last night, enough said. Saka was goof first half and crap the second, Bowen was ok when he came in, and guehi was fine, let's hope it stays like that.

Happy with the England side, Trent in a new position, hope he plays well, only Saka what really worries me, inconsistency, and see how Foden plays, really hope Bellingham pulls the strings. Put those up against anybody to be fair
Edit - Well, at least we got the win and kept a clean sheet
Harry Kane, probably the best finisher in the world right now, on fire with BM, sees **** all of the ball, once chance, nearly a goal, just get it to him ffs
Foden poor, Saka as expected, game of two halves. Bellingham, 20 years old, different class!
Trying to play it down the wings again, straight down the centre and to Kanes feet ffs
When Southgate has gone, I will be taking over

Looking forward to Netherlands v Poland, should be a good match.....I'll dig my orange top out for good luck

Shocked by the Diego’s result, bought Croatia would have been closer than that!

In reply to Post #328 Got that Scotland prediction a little wrong there Mal 😂

In reply to Post #330 I can't believe the Scot manager didn't make changes to his sides shape. After 2 mins Ally McCoist had spotted how the Germans were exploiting the gap between defence and midfield, yet the manager didn't...not great and a deserved result for Germany!

I will go for England to win it
Hope the jocks beat the gerries tonight on home soil

Some pretty solid results from the Netherlands coming into the comp with the odd slip up, worth a punt if like you say they don't implode. I always root for them as my dad was from Limburg but as a rebellious teenage son I supported Germany to wind him up

In reply to Post #326 France must be favourites for me
Netherlands as a possible contender if they don't do the typical Dutch self implosion
Germany will fail to recover from their surprise opening day defeat to the mighty Scots who will win on the back of a huge performance from Andy Robertson

In reply to Post #321 It's an absolute joke, a quote said they're just trying to myre the premier league lawyers so the can't focus on the charges.
Another really annoying deveopment, the scrapping of FA Cup replays because the darlings on the pitch are so over worked and the schedule is so congested...but FIFA launch the new World Club Cup and they have the time to play in that...although apparently Chelsea and City are arguing about the money apparently...surprise surprise
EDIT, no doubt that'll be screened on a new PPV channel due to the monopolies commission ( or whatever it is now) saying the big players have too much
