Braithwate will cause problems, but they aren’t any better than Germany or Croatia that’s for sure. With the momentum we have, and 60k behind us we need to be getting through this. An early goal will settle the nerves, and we seem to be good at getting them this tournament Well, first game was a write off, were beating Belgium at half time but De Bryune changed the game, battered Russia, beat Wales 4-0, comfortable against Czech Republic. Not in England’s class but they’ve had a good tournament Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People quick to say we’ve not played a decent side but ignoring we hadn’t beaten Germany in a million years. Who has Denmark played who are decent? They played Belgium and got beat. croatia were in terrible form when we played them. Scotland came at us and we struggled and thats probably the worst German team we've played in my lifetime and Ukraine were ragged. Yes we've done the job and can only beat what's in front of us but like the World Cup we got a lucky draw. Denmark will be tough but we can beat them but we are certainly not world beaters like some would say. That first half v Ukraine every comment I saw on social media was how poor and slow England were then next thing because we win its all forgotten 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time I see an England defender pass it to another defender who then calmly passes it to one of his midfield colleagues without panicking or simply smashing it forward I am open mouthed in wonder! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think they’re the weakest team left.. wouldn’t take any of their players, maybe Schmeichal but Pickford has been on fire. Their midfield has the likes of Hojberg who doesn’t do much for Spurs I would have maehle in our team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Interesting first half in the Italy Spain game Spain obviously dominating possession and had a few good chances ,Italy old boys at cb look knackered Spain are awful at the back, watched every game they've played and their keeper has dropped a clanger in every one Italy have offered very little I think Spain will just edge it in second half and get a winner 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a flag waver usually but England easily look the strongest team now that we've virtually seen the tournament play out. I can't see a weakness that Denmark or Italy can exploit.

I think we're the best team left but sometimes football kicks you in the nuts just because it can! Ideally we get past Denmark in 90 minutes without sending offs or injuries. If we do this could and should be our year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh there's no doubt that we'll have 15 confirmed with covid at halftime and a 60000 pitch invasion when we're 5-0 up. What else were you expecting Teddy?

Errol Flashman Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Denmark have that bit of momentum. Whether it's Erikkson scenario I dunno. I think we'll do em. But I don't think it'll be a cake walk. They've some decent players and I do think they might get the off sniff with a quick one-two behind our full backs if they nick the ball when we're advanced. That and the odd hoof in behind us. They're not afraid to bring a bit of the 1980's to the party when it's needed these Scandinavian sides. Lads have to make sure they play the game not the occasion, and put any thoughts of Italy well to the back of their minds. There's a job to do here. 2-1 England Just a bloke. Being dragged along in a world that moves too quick for it's own good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N0rtherner Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Now that cheating Italy made their way to the finale yesterday and Spain is out, I'm all about England winning the Euro.. was hoping for England - Spain in the finale, would've been entertaining. Now have to rely on England to send the pasta boys empty-handed back to Italy Not underestimating Denmark, but feeling confident England take this one tonight. 2-0 to England. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
