"We're better against teams that open up against us"
I can't take much more of this.
This "we'll be better when teams come at us" stuff needs to fuck off. No. Our defence is shit.
I'm starting to think that these teams are all thick as shit and haven't looked at the draw. What were Spain playing at yesterday, for example?
I don't know. Iceland aren't winning this tournament either way, now they can at least say they've finished second and above Portugal.
Portugal were terrible as well. That entire group should all be disqualified (bar Iceland) for general shitness.
Iceland will be a cracking 1-1.
I really think Slaven should be on every pundit panel, just to slap twats like this down.
What happened to Austria? Nearly everyone had them as dark horses and they were one of the worst teams in the tournament.
It's laughable.
The idea that we've either:
Cultivated a possession style of football that has been unlucky in converting chances
or
got a style that will be much better against teams we can break against
Are laughable, not to mention that they contradict each other.
Danny Murphy suggesting Belgium would be a harder match than France
If Sweden win this afternoon we'll have France-Belgium as well.
This is great. Hope it finishes a draw and Iceland win though as I have a fiver on that at 14.
Just heard Austria have equalised.
Alright, lads.
They'd be playing Croatia though.
So if we're shit against teams that sit back and also teams that push forward, what team does suit our style?
(Facing) A team that's managed by Roy Hodgson I'd suggest.So if we're shit against teams that sit back and also teams that push forward, what team does suit our style?
Well, that was actually our best performance of the Euros, by far. And still Iceland deserved the win. Well done. I'm just furious that, because I watched this in a pub, I've missed out on what seems to have been the best game of the tournament.
Watching football in a pub is a big no-no for me.
Much rather the privacy of my own home with a nice seat, nice TV and no morons shouting at the TV (save for me).
You're going down, mate.
So is it now between Turkey and Ireland/Sweden to see who goes through?
Belgium could still go out actually, which would be lol.
Iceland! Give that owl a new contract!
I genuinely don't think England would perform that much better with another manager. Maybe a bit, but nothing that would take us significantly further in the tournament.
I just think that's the level of our players. Sadly.
I'm sure people in the pub prefer that for you too.
It's a win-win for all.
Glenn Hoddle is fucking dire.
I did think he looked a bit sore against Slovakia.
Look at the banter and raport between Hoddle, Dunn and Mattheus...
Did quite fancy Ireland before but no Hoolahan and Daryl Murphy + James McCLean in is brutal.
Eight changes for Italy though
That 1994 team was a different team. Cheers.
*everyone speaking about Ireland*
Hoddle: "Getting back to Ireland"
There first game would be slightly more difficult, but if they could've somehow blagged that it's anyone's in that half. In this one they have a much smaller chance overall of going deeeeep, which is what all of the 16 want now no matter what underdog noises are made.
Holy shit Richard Keogh is playing. Joke player
Still good players, though. Their squad is pretty consistent in quality throughout, there aren't many fantastic players but there's many good ones.
Further evidence of managerial stupidty. Bonucci is playing. Italy are guaranteed to finish top. They are playing Ireland. If he's booked he'll miss the game against Spain. What are they achieving there?
Hodgson would've had him straight out, the geezer.
Anyone watching Belgium?
FFS Berg!!!!
Atleast we've managed to hit a shot on target
O'Neill rocking the upturned collar.
I can't believe how well they've played either. I was sure they were going to be remembered as the worst team ever to play in the EURO's ever. They were absolutely rank throughout the whole qualification.
Everyone you'd imagine as why would anyone watch the first and last game of the tournament with nothing to play for either team?
Because the Italy Ireland game is absolute shite?
Ireland aren't out yet.
Well they pretty much are, unless this is another United-Bournemouth situation where they aren't out mathematically yet as they could beat Italy by three.
They are through with any win over Italy.
Pen.
Still in the last round I keep forgetting that third best teams go though as well. As you were.
Ireland bossing it. Hendrick is quality - should be playing in the Premier league
Why is Lukaku so shit?
Sweden really are poor. Could see them regress into third tier status once Ibrahimovic is done.
They haven't produced anything good I years. Ljungberg, Larsson, Ibra. Nobody like that now.
Isaakson and Kallstrom are the only Champ Man vintage around there. Mikael Dorsin retired last season.
