    It was a travesty that cardiff never got any of the finals. So many games at Wembley.

    Hope we are in the bigger group always nice playing a minnow. Just need to avoid one of the decent teams in C

    London shouldn't have been involved at all.
    This format should have been the opportunity for smaller nations to host something where they wouldn't normally get the chance.
    Wembley getting it is clearly good for Wembly PLC financially, but it prevents smaller nations having a go and probably prevents England having a full euros again any time soon as well.

    Unless we improve hugely they'll comfortably beat us twice

    Who did Denmark get? Don't we want them to qualify automatically now?

    Unless they have a spate of retirements then I don't get it either.
    Pots 3 and 4 are amongst the strongest we could have had as well.

    Re: Euro 2020 Draw

    It was the worst format to a draw I've ever seen. Ireland basically got lucky twice just because dublin has been chosen as a host city.

    There are no walk overs and got tough trips. The host cities and all the other nations league winners apart from first 4 should have made no difference

    They have had a spate of retirements

    Subasic, Corluka and Mandzukic have all retired, Modric, Rakitic and Kalinic are all ageing and nearing the end of their international careers, one or two more may even retire. They had a fantastic World Cup but we can match them if we play at our full potential

    Slovakia are a good side, Hungary really aren't, they've lost to Kazakhstan, Scotland, Finland, Australia and Greece this year as well as drawing with Estonia and Belarus. Yes, they finished 3rd in their WC qualifying group, but they were 14 points behind second placed Switzerland and picked up 13 points (2 wins over Latvia, one over Andorra and one over Faroe Islands). They lost to Andorra.

    They aren't a pushover but we really should be beating teams like this if we want to qualify, this group is winnable

    Yep it’s a fair draw us. I still fancy Croatia to win the group and it being 50/50 between us and Slovakia. As you say though Croatia are an ageing side

    I really fancy going to all 4 always. With Baku being the most attractive.
