Their flag should be a white cross on a white background.

That's like the White Star on the White England Shirt , Why Why Why.

No other Country does that, makes you wonder if they are embarrassed to show it.

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

Who’s going to the game today? As ever the optimist, I believe we’ll finally turn up and beat Slovakia handily.

They should go through but would they beat Switzerland. Granit Chaka looks better than any of England's midfielders.

And yet they still managed to humiliate England at home in a final.

They also had a better side then albeit an ageing team.

Keep the faith mate! Xhaka seems to morph into a world class midfielder at international tournaments.

He had a brilliant season with Bayer Leverkusen.

Just one change to the side ,I thought he may have started Palmer also.

Southgate is a stubborn Bastard.

If England lose this ,if I was Gareth Southgate is not bother coming back.

 

[Covcraig@bury]

Has to be the worst England team I’ve seen in years . All individuals

Don't think anyone is giving him a job in the Bundesliga

He can get a job in Greenland.

I think England won that despite Southgate.

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

Aged 10 years in this match. Nearly booked a flight to the next best Spanish tourist destination.

Xhaka hasnt been sent off yet so is long overdue a red card.

He'll be lucky to get a job in Iceland

What a great game between Turkey v Austria and fantastic save by the Turkish keeper at the end..

Aye. I was glued to that game. Would have happily taken 30 minutes of extra time but for that brilliant late save by the Turkey keeper.

I'd have gladly been happy to watch extra time in that , pulsating end to end match , great goalkeeping and the ref was fantastic,let the game flow. Game of the tournament so far.

Definitely game of the R16. Turkey play some really entertaining stuff but I reckon they’ll get exposed by the Netherlands.

As for Austria, good team but people got a bit too carried away they won their group. Well coached and well drilled but too open for a team to win the tournament as demonstrated last night.

Thing is these teams are willing to take a risk, something Southgate doesn't seem to want his teams to do.

That’s the point. The best teams in tournaments don’t tend to be risk takers. Usually quite conservative and prioritise defence over attack.

In this tournament not as much, Spain probably the best side here are very open and attack minded ..Two fantastic wide players and Rodri, who is consistently brilliant .

I thought this thread may have morphed into a ‘ Whose going to Germany to see the City ‘

It’s academic at this point but I don’t think they beat Germany or France. They’ve looked good against the opposition so far, credit to them.

In most tournaments, France’s Deschamps, Portugal’s Santos (2016) and Argentina’s Scaloni (2022) were accused of drab ‘cautious’ football. Even the great Spanish teams of 2008-2012 lined up with Xabi Alonso (and Marcos Senna), Busquets and Xavi in their midfields. Hence they were able to keep clean sheets often in tournaments.

In the last 4 games, we’ve mostly come across teams that play with a low block and put 10 players behind the ball. Whilst being unable to break them down is concerning, we’re probably not coming across this against Switzerland, Turkey/Netherlands and whomever we’d meet in the final should we get there.

It’s over to Southgate and the team to get us playing now.
