It's why I don't gamble. I'd have done the same at 10/1. Those were generous odds at the time.Im £20 lighter lol

What a poor game. Portugal have been hugely disappointing this tournament. I thought they had a really strong side, but Jota and Bruno Fernandes have been absolutely awful, and Bernardo Silva has been anonymous. Belgium were equally poor tonight but scored one lucky goal and that was enough. Was really hoping for a good game there as well. Two poor sides who rely on bits of magic from big players really.

Well looks like Eden Hazard has ended his tournament and Debryne is doubtful now … going to be a bit of lacklustre side next game.
Have to say the Dutch got found out today as well.. Italy didn’t look as convincing yesterday and really not much to say about Wales …

Let’s be honest, every tournament is hyped up, players are given the show reel treatment… but every match bar 50seconds is a bore fest … I love match of the day , gets the mix right and I can watch 7 games in the time it takes to complete one.

Im definitely biased but Ian Wright head and shoulders above yet again
Whilst not disagreeing with your comment, it's a low bar; the phrase "the least gammy leper in the colony" comes to mind.
Is he not "our Robbie savage"?Im definitely biased but Ian Wright head and shoulders above yet again
Don't get me wrong. I think he's quality entertainment and loved him as a player, and to be fair spouts less rubbish than Savage usually does. But during intl footy theyre both massive cheerleaders

Well its all set up for England to bring football home - just the small matter of the Germans in the way!
I firmly believe we can win tomorrow night, hard graft for 90 mins like the scottish did against us and our class should shine through.
I'm not underestimating the Germans, but our team is stacked with top european talent, we can do this.

It can go either way I think. But we need to do plenty more than we've done so far if we're going to win it.

The knock out stages seem to be open for surprises. Netherlands are out, Belgium and Italy scraped through. Does anyone really comfortably wants to can England v. Germany?

Absolutely agree, hence my comment about hard graft like the scottish. They came to play with everything they had against us, we MUST do the same to walk away from this game with the win.

If England have to do everything they possibly can to get past this Germany team then they’re very unlikely to win the Euros.

You just never know.... The Germans are hardly lacking talent. They have at least 4 champions league winners in their side - and I bet a fair few future winners too!

As the old cliché goes, you never write off the Germans!
On paper they have a better keeper than us, slightly better defence, slightly better midfield but they are lacking in the forward department. It will be a tight game I'd expect.

It appears to me that none of the big teams have really shone so far in the tournament...even France have showed some variation in their levels...Italy laboured to a win over Austria, the Dutch came unstuck against a Czech team that didn't really give any hints of their abilities in the group. Forgetting the Finland game for obvious reasons, perhaps only Denmark have shown any fire....a good first half showing before being ultimately beaten by Belgium followed by two thumping victories.
It seems to me like any side can beat anyone else and with England, Germany, Sweden, Ukraine, Czech Rep and Denmark on one half of the draw you could see any of them making the final. On the other side Belgium have just played a tough game against Portugal and now have to go again against Italy, with potentially France and Spain facing each other in the QF and then the winner of Belgium/Italy there are some heavyweight matchups on that side of the draw that could leave a side potentially depleted of energy....especially if games go to extra-time.
Difficult to call the rest of the tournament....wide open route to the final for England's half of the draw and most matches on the other side of the draw could easily be Finals in themselves.

I believe that the future of England International side is growing but we're not champion material yet. We seem to lack that je ne sais quoi that would propel us into being real challengers for international glory.
Saying that the German side also seem to be in the same boat as us - a team full of stars that together don't shine as bright as they should. I just pray and hope the game is entertaining and doesn't go to penalties.

Four, I think. I believe Germany actually have ten Champion's League winners in their squad. But then, even Scotland have two so it might not be the best measure.
