Euro 2024

[Mark TKO]

Getting nervous now. Hope he's brave with team selection

[Memphis]

Not gonna lie. I have no idea who Guehi is. Trent seems to be the weak link or the position up for debate. Saka club form not been great? Kane not 100% fit? I don't follow club football, not really so just bits and pieces I hear/read. On paper the front four are ridiculous.

[Mark TKO]

Me neither. Never heard of him. In fact there was a few in the initial squad I'd never heard of though being an Ipswich fan never really followed the premier league closely - will next season of course

Here goes

[Memphis]

Forget what I said about Saka. Once again, Bellingham aside he's our best weapon. I want Foden to do well but it's not really happening for him.

[Kirkland Laing]

I haven't watched a full game for I don't know how many years but I got a lovely rosy nostalgic feeling seeing that the Scotch got absolutely thumped by the Germans. I've even bothered to look up the qualifying system from the groups and am really hoping they don't even manage to qualify. Big game coming up against Switzerland. I might even watch it.

England don't seem anything outside of Bellingham. I only saw some highlights but they don't seem like they've got a chance of winning. Foden is yet another player who looks really good at domestic level but then becomes anonymous at international level. Maybe I should actually watch the fucker play for two minutes or be able to pick him out of a lineup before I make a judgement like that but it just fits in with the endless list of these fuckers over the years.

[Master]

That was a very nervous display.

I can understand now why Foden may not fit into the system which is ridiculous.

[Memphis]

I'll take a mediocre performance first game up so long as there's three points on the board. We don't generally win openers.

Bellingham good. Saka, good, Rice, good. Guehi, good. Pickford, again didn't let England down.

Trent was sloppy throughout. Gave the ball away too easily. Kane barely had a kick. Foden looked like he was coming alive a bit in the second half, but then we became passive. I don't understand how he can't impose himself on the game more. He was free to roam where he wanted. He doesn't have to set the World alight with every pass. But demand the ball, progress the play. He's a good footballer, World class. If he gets on the ball 10 times, 8/9 times he's going to do something good. But he's largely anonymous. Really disappointed.

All that said. I'm not sure if I'd feel more or less comfortable if we looked a million dollars and put them to the sword first game up.
