Euro 2024 - Inc Southgate resignation
"We seem to have an England v Bosnia thread but not an actual Euro 2024 thread so here it is So, do we realistically think England can win it? On paper we obviously have a very talented squad but I just don't see us going all the way. For me it's ""same old"" when it comes to England. Breeze the group, favourable draw in last 16 and win then up against far superior opposition in the QFs and out. At best I can see us at the SF stage before being beaten again. Winners for me: France, Portugal, Spain Dark horses: Germany - even though it's a home tournament they've been in a consolidation period, could go close Biggest flops: Scotland - no goals scored Top goalscorer: Mbappe I'm just hoping it's a decent tournament with plenty of decent games that's not ruined by VAR (are they using it?) consolidation period but could go close"

"Quite excited. Off to Heathrow in a couple of hours with huge buffer in case of train nonsense. Contingency plans in place in case of flight issues (which there seemed to be yesterday). £35 flight, £42 hotel, £82 match ticket. Magic. We're obviously underdogs but it's hardly Spain vs Dagenham & Redbridge, so we're in with a shout. COME ON ENGLAND!"

"Andrea Pirlo goes down as 1 of the world's greatest players too and 1 of my all time favourite players. Absolutely majestic to watch play at the highest level and did it with such elegance. ...Anyway enough of all that, this Cup has England's name written all over it. Respect Spain but do not fear them, fucking believe in the quality we also have to finish the job."

"...That was a penalty. If a player lunges in for the ball studs up at knee high without getting a nick of the ball but the man instead endangering him, then it's a penalty and I did call it at the time it happened."

Re: Euro 2024
Italy for me were the stand-out Nation in the last Euros that they ended up winning. Scored goals for fun against tough opposition in the group stages and also managed to beat both Teams in this year's Final to win it on our soil. They definitely weren't a boring watch. Donnarumma is still ridiculously young for a Goalkeeper and arguably the best in the world. They've gone off the boil of late but as their youth teams are proving there's likely to be a new crop of talent eager to showcase what they've got.
Re: Euro 2024
Hahaha look at Nutsack go!! You clearly didn’t watch any Italy games in euro 2020 aside from the final. Same way you clearly don’t watch Italian football or know anything about how good the next generation are. Same way you thought Paqueta had never played for a big club. Same way you actually thought that was a penalty the other night. Football really isn’t for you. Let’s hope England win to give you something to be happy about because you’re clearly very bitter.
Re: Euro 2024
"Yeah I will. I’ll carry on calling you out for all the bollocks you spout on here. Criticizing England and West Hams style of play while defending the scummy cunts of Italy who are by far the scourge of all international football teams, ranging from their dirty tac tics to feigning injury and playing an awful brand of football for decades. You really are a clueless clown."
Re: Euro 2024
"No I avoid Italian football like the plague I must admit. But I have seen enough over the years to form a valid opinion. Never been impressed with who they are, how they play and their lack of character. Scummy cunts really!"
Re: Euro 2024
"If you don’t like it, don’t watch it. Instead you’re pissing your pants about something completely irrelevant. You’re obviously still salty about losing the last Euros finals. You’ve done an excellent job this season, and recently of proving how little you understand the game."
Re: Euro 2024
Are you mental? What am I defending? Italy were poor this tournament but were decent when WINNING the competition. You don’t put 3 past Turkey & Switzerland if you’re playing rubbish. You don’t beat that Belgium team by playing rubbish.
Re: Euro 2024
"Funny how the style of football wasn’t relevant all season with West Ham or all tournament with England, but now you’re all about which style wanna watch? Btw Italy just won the U17s Euros and won the U19s last year, so as per usual you don’t have a clue what you’re talking about."
Re: Euro 2024
"Let’s be honest the Italian style of football ranks amongst the worst to watch. All the flopping, diving, feigning injury, defensive set up, boring football. It explains why so few neutrals cheer them on. I always root against them even if they are playing the Germans. There really is nothing to like about the team or the fans. I find it somewhat pleasing knowing that they have no young talent to speak of so it’s doubtful we will see a half decent Italian team anytime soon."
