So if both games end in a draw in group E and either Czechia or Georgia win we play 3rd in E?
This stuff fries my brain. Just expand the tournament to 32 teams FFS,ight as well, gives 8 shit nations a go and avoids this 3rd place bollocks
I mean even Scotland made this one to be fairgives 8 shit nations a go
Southgate master plan to lull teams into a false sense of securityNone of the top teams are doing well apart from Germany and maybe Portugal.
I think it’s the groups allowing third place teams through. None of them are putting top effort in cos they know they can bimble through on minimum effort.
Hopefully that’s what England have done and will turn it on in knockouts. Doesn’t look like it though.
I honestly think it’s ruining the group stages at the Euros. To reflect on last nights game, but this applies elsewhere too, Slovenia were happy for a draw even if they finished 3rd place.So if both games end in a draw in group E and either Czechia or Georgia win we play 3rd in E?

In this round of games, Romania and Slovakia both know they’re through irrespective of that happens in the other game.
Ironically, Belgium’s coach is highly regarded and they’re likely to finish second in the only group ranked lower than ours.
I agree. Get rid of the 3rd placed teams nonsense. Top two go through again. Will make teams stop playing chess and actually play attacking football trying to win gameshonestly think it’s ruining the group stages at the Euros.

Bottom straight to top gone in that chance.
We genuinely are in very good company.Belgium are also not very good
How they are 3rd in the world is beyond meWe genuinely are in very good company.
Kompany?We genuinely are in very good company.

Realistically, UEFA will only expand it and I’m not against that, but let’s reduce the qualification process because I agree the competition would be weaker.They need to go back to 4 groups( tough competition ) , or it has to be 8 (weaker competition )..
Can't have 3rd placed failures going through it's stupid
Who is?How they are 3rd in the world is beyond me
BelgiumWho is?
Belgium
Georgia need to beat Portugal by 2 or more and Czechia need to beat Turkey. I think it's fair to say we will be playing the Dutch.
England were fifa ranked 4th at start of the tournament....they're 5th nowI didn't know that. Then again, we were constantly in the top 5 for so long, for god knows what reason.
England were fifa ranked 4th at start of the tournament....they're 5th now
if we play holland we lose
Think it's been a competition without much quality at all this year ... really is a poor tournament compared to years ago
