Dark Munster Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 10 hours ago, SNSUN said: I made this comment straight after Bellingham’s goal…But the simple fact is that while we were poor on the whole, 6 more results like that and we’re coming home with the trophy. (Actually, technically, we could draw one of our next two and lose the other, still go through the group stage and then win the next 4 and we’d still have the trophy.) (Actually actually we could not win another game and still come home with the trophy if we draw one of the next two games then succeed in 4 penalty shoot outs!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sadoldgit Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 I don’t normally turn to The Guardian for insights into Gareth Southgate’s England, but this is spot on. https://amp.theguardian.com/football/article/2024/jun/17/england-gareth-southgate-serbia-euro-2024 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Corbyn Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 15 hours ago, Saint NL said: Danso has played very well tonight. By all accounts he's developed in to a very good defender over the last couple of years. Always thought he looked like he had a lot of potential at Southampton, but Ralph didn't seem to fancy/trust him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which I always found odd as he was clearly one of his picks, given he came from Germany and was Austrian - someone Ralph would have vetted more than any of our scouts. We used to paly him as a LB though which didn't help, he used to fly into challenges at LB and was a bit of a loose cannon. We never gave him the chance to develop at CB. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmore Saint Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 Turkey v Georgia is ridiculously entertaining for a Euros group game. The lad Yildiz who’s currently at Juve looks a real talent. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking the same. Good hands and a bit unhinged. A bit like the Georgian rugby players. Would scare the shit out of a lot of premier league forwards.

S-Clarke Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 Really good game, my favourite so far. Georgia may be seen as the minnows, but they have some decent players. Like you say above, their keeper is of a high level playing at Valencia. Kvaratskhelia is also one of the best attackers in the world right now.
