The way Hazard's playing this tournament, he might get a move to one of the big teams.

Hmmmm Leicester maybe.
Certainly deserves better than playing for a mid table average side like his current club.

Indeed. We finished above England in the group and if it wasn't for Gunter falling on his arse and kneeing it in off a 92nd minute toe poke.....Woy and his merry men would be on a plane home to face a lynching.

That'd be the game you were you did pretty much fcuk all and scraped a free-kick in

That's the one. Where we had 2 shots on target and England had a massive 4 and a beautiful assist from Williams for Vardy to bundle in an equaliser.

Wah wah wah.

If it wasn't for Hart palming the ball into the net we would have kept a clean sheet,

According to the BBC it's actually 5 vs 2, and 20 vs 8 when you include off target shots. Plus 70% possession. Get over it. England dominated the arse out of Wales who offered virtually nothing all game.

And if your defenders aren't good enough to avoid giving the opposition assists or unsighting your goalkeeper so he can't save, that's a bit of a team deficiency.

Hi Ian.

[Hoop Blah]

Rumour has it that Sterling will return the side tonight, at the expense of Lallana, to make a front three of Sterling, Kane & Sturridge.

[double d]

That's me putting 20 on Iceland to win then

Happy with that tbf.

Who is this irritating commentator for Germany v Slovakia ? I might have to put it on mute soon.

He sounds like a relative of our stadium announcer.

This is why ITV should not be allowed near football

Robbie Savage is on BBC.
Have just returned from holiday in Portugal watching some of the games with a Portuguese commentary.
I have to say that listening to a commentary in a language that I can only understand a little is preferable to the twaddle served up by BBC and ITV where only the foreign pundits are worth listening to.

Indeed

Not sure why anyone would be concerned if coverage goes to Sky. Much better than either BBC/ITV
And no Robbie Savage

There certainly is a clear easy and hard side of the knockout stages.

Germany, Italy, England, France and Spain down one side, that's 20 World Cup and European Championship titles between them.

Belgium, Croatia, Wales, Hungary and Portugal on the other, that's er... oxf*rd all.

With the seedings as they expected, swap Croatia with Spain and England with Wales. And obv Hungary and Portugal.

Underwhelming 2nd round

Poland - Switzerland - great goal, bit dull
Wales - Norn - bit dull
Croatia - Portugal - god, why hast thou forsaken me?
France - Ireland - shame, that could have been a bit more fun
Germany - Slovakia - decent game but a bit dull, no contest
Hungary - Belgium - decent game but a bit dull, no contest

1 QF ticket for Bordeaux (Germany v Spain/Italy) available still. Category 2.

Can meet you out there.

only viewable to people sat in bars and subscription payers, no thsnks

[John Madejski's Wallet]

De Gea having a stormer for Spain (aside from spilling it for the goal obvs)

Remember what a massive lightweight he was when his first went to ManU?

[John Madejski's Wallet]

Hour in, how the hell have Italy not scored 3 or 4?

Their attaching has been a joy (for Italians), Spain's defence just can't cope with the movement and running

[TFF]

Sterling starts.

LOL

[AthleticoSpizz]

Time to say goodbye to one of my favourite teams of the tournament so far.

Anything less than by 3 goals will be decent

And really not that good either

WTF?

[Pepe the Horseman]

Hoping the 'something to prove' factor will give him a big kick up the arse.

D'you think England will lose then?
