Whitechapel Owl Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 It's going to be Portugal in the next round isn't it. Uefa really need to sort out the ranking points system that determines the seeds. Having Ukraine seeded, France in pot 2, and Portugal in pot 3 is absolutely ridiculous. It's created a situation where it may well be beneficial to lose to Czech Republic in the 3rd game.

What if that 3rd placed team doesn't qualify? I'll be honest I could probably Google it all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latemodelchild Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 Just seen that we play 2nd place from that group. I'd got it in my head that we played 3rd for some reason. Been saying that to people and now I feel a bit of a ********. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheEnchanter Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 After losing to Iceland in the last 16 last time it doesn't matter who we'd play to me. Surely... surely... for once we can beat a top team in a tournament. I mean we've not done it really this millenium. Now is the time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CalmJimmers Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 Kante is ridiculous, genuinely think he's on par with the very best in the world atm. Everybody knows he can break stuff up and that his stamina is ridiculous (zoomed in on him in about the 85th minute last night and was barely sweating), but he also dribbled around two players yesterday, and his passing isn't bad either. And yeah, Mbappe's speed is frightening! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yeah, Mbappe's speed is frightening! He’s probably my favourite player on the planet right now. I watched him closely last night and calling him a machine doesn’t do him justice, he covered every blade of grass in the middle, and what’s most impressive is that he’s always thinking of the next pass, or to get into the next position after interrupting play and laying it on His forward thinking and awareness is what makes him world class. A true joy to watch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A true joy to watch Couldn't agree more. For me he is in the same bracket as Ronaldo and Messi in terms of ability to play his role. yeah he isn't as skillful or glamorous but he is just as influential 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes a key interception and 2 secs later he’s on the other side making himself available. I don’t know how he does it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The only way is S6 Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 I think we’ll win our group, France will win theirs & we’ll get Portugal (2nd) in R16 next & beat them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with that. I reckon Germany will also sneak through in 3rd. We’ve got to break our Portugal curse at one point soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
