Default Euro 2016

Looking forward to the tournament as we probably all do before it starts.

As soon as England's first game is over the excitement will have worn off.

Personally I think it will be a very open tournament and hopefully we'll get to see some decent footy

Looking at the teams on paper Germany France and Spain look to be the faves BUT if Roy can get our mob playing as a team then you never know.

It's your mob not ours.

As usual you will fail from the penalty spot in the quarters.

They're just not good enough under Roy, he should have left shrek at home and taken Drinkwater as him and vardy have proven how well they know each other's game.
Instead he has Rooney up the middle and vardy and Kane playing out of position. In there last game vardy would had a better chance of scoring those two sitters than fatty.

And why the **** is harry Kane taking corners and indirect free kicks?
Philosophy change needed me thinks

Who would have thought an Arsenal and a West Ham player scoring the 2 best goals of the tournament so far?!

The only England game I ever saw was a friendly against the Ruskies at Wembley in 84.

We indeed lost 0-2!

Remember vividly Mike Duxbury slipping over and giving away an easy goal. I was right behind the goal - gutting lol

They are not a good side and if Bale gets crooked they are fcuked!

I don't think England are a good side either and they ALWAYS choke.

Still think you will get to quarters and lose on Penalties again.

England are the national equivalent of arsenal.woy is Ann English arsene

It's kind of just like him really a lot of hype and promises and when it comes down to it they just never deliver.

England will do a nice 0-60 time but will fall short on the 1/4 mile

Aye?.......They played well and could/should of won that easily but for a lack of finishing..

Raheem Sterling.............Has nothing in his locker apart from pace! He has no telling pass, no final ball, just runs into walls! The dippers must still be laughing that they got £50million for him!!

As for the violence before, during and after the game looks like the Russians started it, only have to look at those Russians dressed all in black and masked ffs. I hope all those involved on both sides get caught by CCTV and dealt with appropriately.

Lack of finishing I think you will find is the critical issue.

Obviously!

Its not like we scraped a 1-1 draw and created nothing, we had some very good chances and could of won that 3 or 4. Continuing in that fashion things look promising..

It makes me laugh that all over facebook people are given it the "same old England" The same old England would of probably lost that game and had their backs to the wall for 80 minutes, it wasn't like that at all.

We need to get behind the team like the Welsh do. They played a team ranked 31st in UEFA's rankings and got an undeserved win with a flukey free kick and a scuffed shin shot. We dominated a team ranked 7th and should of seen the game out, but we didn't....If I was Chris Colman I'd be slightly worried about facing England.
