The general Euro2024 chit chat thread

[6ft Kerplunk]

Went into the office this morning and there were a fair few people wearing England shirts. I'm just praying that we're 4-0 up at half-time so I don't have to feign coughing fits every 5mins during the parents evening I have to go to at 6 just to keep track of what's happening.

[Uke]

It’s tipping down here in Dusseldorf!

And my bag is in Amsterdam…

And I’m wearing a Purple Turtle shirt.

Therefore the omens are looking good for an England win!

[NathStPaul]

They are our neighbours and a million times less annoying than the Welsh. Happy to lend them my support.

Didn’t have you down as an enemy NSP, in fact we’ve worked together well in the past targeting Leon, but I’m afraid with this kind of statement you’re forcing me into team Leon.

Yeah sorry, not a fan of the Welsh lads. Not my cup of tea.

Ok enemy status actioned.

[Sutekh]

Big bum to Slovenia, really need a Serbia equaliser as if Slovenia fail to win England will qualify as group winners if they beat Denmark.

[Brum Royal]

Serbia equalise 90+5 from a corner, so it's full advantage to England now to go on and get the win to top the group

[Stranded]

So England know they can top the group with a win tonight, with a game to spare.

Never has a Denmark win been more guaranteed.

[Sutekh]

Bit of an awkward group in many ways, England have got 3 sides which they are expected to beat but that are well organised and adept at parking buses. Expectation is for 3 dire struggles hopefully ending like the Serbia result.

not sure why we haven't got a thread for each game. Or at least each England game.

Build it and they will come.

Thanks for giving us the big picture

[Royal Rother]

Not watching it but BBC seem to be suggesting England are sitting back on the lead allowing Denmark to come back into the game and actually dominate us.

Well there's a fcuking surprise.

Oh FFS, I see it is now 1-1.

Standard Southgate tactics. God I wish they had a no.2 that was tactically astute.

Been saying for years that this squad is wasted with Southgate. Get him gone

And who would replace him? Eddie? Or try for Klopp?

If we win anything under him it'll be because the players have said "fcuk you and your safety first tactics, we're going to play to our strengths, push forward, try to dominate teams and once we get a lead, keep our foot on their necks. If we lose, at least we'll come off the pitch with pride because we've given it a proper go, you bellend".

Or something like that.

Ooo, Sanguine's going to give me such (fully deserved) grief if we win this thing.

Throw a load of money at Klopp. It's a much reduced schedule and a lot more money. It would appeal to him you'd think.

0% chance of that happening, he cares about his Liverpool legacy too much. And you know what they'd be like if he took the England job
