It has become quite here. Yesterday match with between Germany vs France was great quality wise Germany dominated possession but didn't have cutting edge, they need quality striker and France were good  but didn't look invincible, They look deadly on counter attack.

 

Portugal Vs Hungary was good specially with stadium full had atmosphere 3-0 score I kind of doesn't give full picture how tight match was

Yeah Portugal vs Hungary was a good game. Watched it in bits. Hungary pretty much lost the plot in the last ten minutes after being defensively rock solid for almost 85 minutes.

Turkey are shite, always have been. The Bangladesh of football seems a good label. Only their retarded fans think they are good, everyone else knows they are crap against any decent side.

 

 

 

As predicted Turkey suck donkey balls and crash out. Dark Horses  :cantstop:

 

How many TV sets will get broken tonight?

England draw 0-0 to Scotland :phehe:

 

That's what you get for not starting Grealish and Sancho. It's a disgrace that the latter hasn't even played a minute in the tournament so far despite being arguably their second best player behind Kane. 

 

Czech Republic may just end up topping group D.

Spain has became so fuddu team after their main players retired. Germany an France this time looks for the final.

Italy have looked the most impressive so far. France are just a counter attacking team. Their tactics are literally just to defend and hit on the break with Mbappe.

And now France drew 1-1 to Hungary. 

 

Germany beat Portugal 4-2

 

Italy, Belgium and Nederlands have looked the most impressive so far and will most likely top their respective groups. 

 

With this horrible format where four 3rd placed will also qualify to tell RO16 , you can't really be sure of anything. Even freaking turkey has an outside chance of going through.

The Euros are bloated with 24 teams, they need to reign it back to 16.

Re England

 

I think southgate right to play two defensive midfielders.

 

Had England lost to scotland the English press would have derailed the whole campaign.  Lesser of two evils was chosen.

 

The biggest issue for England is the form of Harry kane. While i understand that the current system is not ideal for him, his movement during set plays in either setting up others by creating movement or scoring himself is an issue.  Sterling was always hit and miss in front of goal. But his pace creates chances for others either via a set play or penelty or a pass. 

 

Feel if England are going to go down the two defensive midfielders route they need to have a better plan from set plays. Both winning set plays and scoring from them. Vs Scotland the best chance was from a set play which hit the post.

Even though Germany wasn't given the best of chances of winning this tournament but you cannot count them out. Only the captain Manuel Neuer is left from that deadly team of the past, hope Hansi Flick would give this talented side a great turnaround.

Muller, Kroos and Hummels are still there.

Germany are rebuilding. Spain in same boat.

 

Ultimately in football you cant stay on the top forever.  There will be ebbs and flows.

 

Only England are rebuilding since 1966.

 

Italy France Germany Spain have won or reached finals in the interim.

Germany looks good overall ..... France has Mbappe who great attacking option and most of time in counter attack he will end up getting you a goal. You need fast and accurate striker. Belgium is good.Haven't watched italy this time but most of the time they were also a counter attacking team and bank on their solid defense in the past. Spain became fuddu as their tiki taka stuff irritates now, only thing they win is possession now a day they are not able to convert them in the goals their striker misses lot of opportunities.
