The Euros kick off this Friday. Who’ll be watching? How do we fancy England’s chances?
I reckon it’s definitely coming home this year.
Come on England!! |

Chances would be better if:
We made better defensive choices
We didn’t play Trent as a midfielder
But I’ll be supporting with all I have and preparing for the inevitable quarter final disappointment  |

I claim my German ancestry - even place the flag up in the background for MSTeams meetings. For some reason that seems to wind people up  |

D’ya know what…..I think I’d rather England fell totally flat and exit at the group phase.
No wait…..hear me out before you chop my bollocks off.
Abject failure would make up the mind of Gareth Southgate, to step aside and start a new era with a manager that might be able to benefit from the pretty good work he’s done since taking over. And there’s no denying, it’s been an enjoyable ride to be an England football fan. A time of expectations rather than blind hopes. |

England have no chance. France and Spain looking far too good this year. Germany also in with a chance. We’ve got too many individuals and far too many injury prone players. I think we’ll only just scrape past the group |

I think France will win it as they seem to be strong in defence , midfield , forwards with good back up options and a top manager who has done it at international level.As a outsider/ dark horse I think if Italy get out of their group which I think they will it could take a penalty shootout for them to lose as they seem to always find a way to win. |

Us Scots enjoy the party atmosphere and being a small fish in a big pond, we don't expect too much.
England on the otherhand always have it won before a ball is kicked. Since 66 you have become serial losers but you can always dream
You have some great players but a dick of a manager that is holding you back.
Better manager and you would have a great chance.
IMO....Semis at best |

Trippier was always facing our goal though and at one point I thought he was going to try and score from a free kick in our goal ,not a fan of him sorry . |

Good from Trent? I thought he was particularly poor. Rice held his hand for most of the game. Hopefully he doesn’t start in the middle again. Would rather Foden (who was also poor) came into the middle and Eze was put out on the wing. |

Pretty flat atmosphere in this game. I fell asleep at 50 mins for half hour.
Bellingham is class though and Saka was exciting too |

I thought he was good. There were obviously question mark about where he best fits in the team but I thought he did well. I thought Gallagher was poor when he came on but Bowen was very good. Also Guehi was very bright in defence. |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
All about opinions I just thought he looked a bit out of his depth in the middle and Foden just never seems to cut it for England out on the left.
Jude was unreal. Simply brilliant. Saka excellent first half, faded in the second but first game post injury very impressive.
Guehi had a great game. |

I know, I’m a huge fan of Foden, he’s the sort of player who eats, sleeps and breathes football but he’s never quite done it in an England shirt. I hope he proves us wrong. |

England have started slowly compared to Germany & Spain but I feel they can develop as the tournament goes on.They need to find a way to get Bellingham & Foden linking up and creating chances for Kane or perhaps pick just one of them to play #10 and bring in Eze , Gordon or Palmer on the left wing.Like I said there is still time for the performance to improve. |

That was harsh on Belgium earlier, the VAR decision on handball, looked for very little, but that’s how the game goes. Fantastic win for Slovakia
France and Austria seemed a good game and really thought Mbappe would score but just don’t know what he did with the shot. Two great chances for the Austria striker that he was unlucky with. |

"Croatia v Albania 1400
Germany v Hungary 1700
And hide behind sofa with kids at 2000 for Scotland v Switzerland
They can shove their toblerones..
There the last team we have beaten in a major tournament

Four nil Germany
Three nil Switzerland hopefully |

based on Scotlands first game I'd say they'd lose to Switzerland 2-0 not sure about Germany v Hungary maybe a draw or Germany just edge it 2-1. |

It’ll be nice if Scotland get something from the game just so they have a little bit of hope. It’ll hurt more then when they get beat 4-0 by Hungary. |

That Albania croatia draw really actually helps Scotland…
Now in reality a win in either of the last 2 should mean progress to the knockouts |

Do the Swiss FA roll out Shaqiri every couple of years, just to bang in a couple of worldies, and then box him back up until the next Tournament? |

Everyone was spaffing over CR7 being in his 6th Euros, but along comes Mr. Shakqiri in his 7th. And scores. |

I'm gonna get a bet on.
Also, Shakqiri has played in 7 TOURNAMENTS. Euros and WCs. Not 7 Euros. Poor dude would need to be in his 60s or something |

Scotland to beat Hungary 1-0 and be the first 3rd place team with 4 points not to go through and it will be gloriously historical |

Unless Scotland absolutely slaughter Hungary, I’m not sure a win is just enough. Need plenty goals to get through as a third place qualifier |

That last minute Serbian equaliser really helps England….
If the beat Denmark today.. they will win the group … a draw would get them at least 3rd.. and probably 2nd |

A win tonight would be good and add certainty. I don’t think we will get it, although I hope we do. I’m thinking that a draw would be ok |
