England ....What a side , top top quality in almost every department .
A little boring in the build up , they could well win it this time .
Is there abetter accumulation of great footballers in any other nation?

Loads of excellent attacking options, but they need to press home the advantage when they have it because this defence is definitely suspect.
I’m always baffled when international sides with pools of players the size of England’s end up playing people out of position. Madness.

There is a feeling the coverage of England is over the top .
When Wales were doing well in the Euros all those years ago it was exactly the same. If we were English we would want/expect
the coverage to be so .
The Daily Mail did an article slaughtering Scotland and Scottish people , someone came on here spouting the same shite .
I felt sorry for both of them .

Yeah, imagine being enthusiastic about one of the best players in the world. Scandalous.

We were saying they are very conservative for a side full of such talent .
Then they scored .
Boring Gareth may bring it home yet .

Re: EURO'S thread. Sunday 16th June 2024.
Lineker a bit more realistic then. Started well, competent. I thought they’d kick on after a great goal but neither ‘keeper has really been troubled. Yes, they’ve played well but all too far away from the danger area. I did think the wrong player took the one ‘dangerous position’ free kick they had though. Trippier or Foden for me within that distance and position. 1-0 isn’t a comfortable score at the moment as the Dane’s discovered earlier.

Re: EURO'S thread. Sunday 16th June 2024.
It's the same old cobblers
Shearer saying what a great cross it was for the goal when it was in fact a deflection which held the ball up for Bellingham to score
England are a good side but they are playing a very ordinary Serbia outfit
There are 4 or 5 sides that could beat England with a fair wind and England pushing the panic button
They should win this comfortably tonight but its the first game and the champagne is on ice
It's all a bit daft

Re: EURO'S thread. Sunday 16th June 2024.
For all the attacking talent they have, it’s been a piss poor performance so far. Apart from the goal, which was top notch, they’ve only made a couple of half chances.
If they score first in the second half, they should go on and win it, but the Serbs were coming onto their game as half time approached. Bellingham is best player on the park by a country mile ( what ever that is) 😂

He's a powerful unit for 20 years old
Who was that black lad played for Derby, never really hit the big time but very powerful midfielder?

It does look like they are playing with the shackles on .
BUT , when they stretched their legs it was BOOM , mark of a top side.
I think Gareth Southgate keeps them conservative , if it wins the tournament he will be hailed a genius manager .
I would rather see them be a little more cavalier with the talent on show , somehow I doubt I have ever been a consideration of the English FA .

Central defence looks suspect and I'm amazed they can't find a left back other than injury prone Shaw
