die Mannyschaft Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 England should have no problem with group games even 3 x 1-0 wins would be minimum expected with they have. A lot of goals so far and that's an indication of defensive standards. Germany looked good v a leaque 1 team but doubt if go any further than QF/SF. It will be interesting to see who plays who on the schedule chart. Can the big guns meet in QFs ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happens every tournament, no matter how unlucky, a few hours before England's first game, I just get this rush of energy and it's suddenly inconceivable that England aren't going to win the thing. International football is boring and I can’t get behind the overpaid pricks who clearly consider their own importance above anyone else in the country… Until around 3 hours before the tournament starts and then I’m all in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chez Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 (edited) Vestgaard appears to have lost a yard of pace. I don't have a clue how that is possible, but rather than running in treacle, he now appears to be running in rapidly setting concrete.

The media must be paid to salivate over this guy. He was the best right back in the world, but is now seemingly not good enough for full back (As has been obvious since for ever) and is shunted into midfield where he can be the best passer in the world. He is probably one of the most unnecessarily overhyped footballers I've ever come across in my life, and most of us lived through the 2002-2006 era. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNSUN Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 I don't mind Trent and I picked him for his position today but he started iffily. However he made a good interception for the Walker chance and now good footwork for the free kick. Mixed bag so far. Foden hasn't been great so far, Saka and Bellingham the picks and Guehi has been good at the back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
