Re: Euro 2020 Tournament happening 2021
Keep going over the same Memphis. Italy were a better organised unit we knew that. But the early goal was a curse as much as a great start. We'll look back with tactical regret for years to come as we didn't seize the opportunity to capitalise.
Like the Croatia match 3 years ago and what Modric did Varatti did the same and just controlled the midfield in the second half. We badly need a player like that. Kane was dropping back way too deep. Oh for another Paul Scholes.
Can't believe we only conceded two goals all tournament. Italy themselves came through two penalty shoot outs and one extra time to win the thing. And they didn't really create that many chances against us.
I won't have a go at the penalty takers at all but yes I was impressed with Maguires.
Totally agree with Qatar. We'll struggle with the climate.
I've accepted the defeat but still not come to terms with how it was a missed opportunity to go for it. Southgate has built a great team spirit so I'm happy with him at the helm. Needs to unleash the attacking strengths more though.
Grrrr I'm over it.... Honest....

And thanks Primo but I won't be watching that clip....
Re: Euro 2020 Tournament happening 2021
All the stadiums in Qatar Will be air conditioned, even the outdoor ones.
Sounds mad but it's true.
The indoor stadiums will be fine and the players will train indoors with Aircon.
I remember trying to be clever and walking 15 mins to work in Dubai at about 8.30am.
Was soaked through like I'd jumped fully clothed into a swimming pool when I arrived, the humidity and heat is brutal some days.
Unless you've been to the UAE in peak summer you can't imagine how fucking hot it gets.
I used to go to the gym twice a day and even though it was ice cold I'd always get lightheaded and really thirsty way more than a non aircon gym
It's like your breathing fake air.
Could be a huge problem for some players.

I foresee water breaks every 5 minutes. Gonna be some looong games there.
Re: Euro 2020 Tournament happening 2021
It's in December though, the weather isn't brutal at that time of year in Dubai is it?

Re: Euro 2020 Tournament happening 2021
77°F average high in December... doesn't sound too bad. Good find. Maybe it won't be such a big deal after all.
Re: Euro 2020 Tournament happening 2021
It can get up to 30 I think but the average is not too bad after looking into it some more
Re: Euro 2020 Tournament happening 2021
Completely forgot it was in Nov/Dec, shouldn't really be a big problem at all.
