Please France get a winner
This has been great but my one addendum on my Portugal love is at that time Cancelo/Felix were healthy and starting.
Boom!!!
Fuck
Hopefully Germany score again
Griezmann you pony-tailed wanker
Avoided England
Deschamps is kinda a joke, but he gets a pass now b/c he won the World Cup. They werenāt great in the World Cup either, very mediocre in the group, but turned it on at the right times in the KO stage.
Once again, they had a very pedestrian group stage. They looked like potential world beaters once Deschamps took off the training wheels and put on Coman for Tolisso. Itās frustrating, b/c you have an attack that is basically a cheat code, but Deschamps would rather play methodical and look for low scoring victories.
Itās normal for sides to be cagier in the group stages and open up when they find their fluency in the knockouts.

So if England makes the finals, they will have played 6 of 7 matches at home?
Iām just a neutral, but this seems like bullshit.
This is such a fantastic road to the semis for the Netherlands it feels like weāve cheated somewhere, maybe the king threw his (considerable) weight around, he was seen lurking around in the stands. I mean Czech Republic into Wales/Denmark versus, for Belgium, Portugal into Italy/Austria.
for UKers to mentally prepare for those days when you have to endure ITV and adverts in every spot they can muster
BBC - Saturday & Tuesday
ITV - Sunday & Monday
edit: itās the ads between the anthems and kick-off that really grind my gears
Donāt worry, they wonāt trouble the final.
I canāt get the German national anthem out of my head but we changed the words and sangā¦
āArran transport, we have buses we will take you anywhere, but if you are misbehaving, we will give you the electric chairā
Try it it works perfectly
Wembley being the hame advantage is all good until they reach penalties
Good Luck
Depending on the draws for the last 16 I honestly thought Germany and the Netherlands would struggle in this round but it looks like you both got it easy.
The Sweden-Poland game yesterday was such a sweat, it was the difference between drawing Portugal (if Poland won) or Czech Republic. Iām not saying the Czech Republic team is bad, but Portugal has been a proper angst-gegner for the Netherlands for years.
I just sang it in ma heed - it fits perfectly.
Yeah, the Dutch and Portuguese team have had some good clashes for us neutrals in the last few years. Itās always an exciting match up.
The thrills of the last 16 and who you would wish to avoid was fun last night, seeing what the commentators wanted etc.
The England team look to have the worst of it, Germany which I expect them to win in all honesty and then France? Is it, thatās a tough next 2 rounds if I say so myself.
