[Football] Euros 2024 - Round of 16 (England vs Slovakia & Spain vs Georgia)

[A1X]

I’m suddenly having a lot more sympathy for the Turkish club president who tried to attack this fella.

Southgate running on and chinning him, leading to a suspension, would have me nominate him for a knighthood

I've painted the Flag on my face and EVERYTHING

Yeah but painting the Slovakian flag on your face was a bit of a giveaway

"30 years of hurt" the song goes. "hurt" is the right word.

 

[Weststander]

No one can control midfield tho. Rice overrated and too soon for Mainoo

My football instinct has always been to have two CM’ers who can defend when a team doesn’t have the ball. Caicedo/Mac the perfect example.

Southgate, normally cautious, goes kamikaze with a poor tournament Rice fulfilling the entire role on his own. Leaving a bunch of lazy or slow big time charlies up front when their shit attacks come to nowt.

Foden has had a rubbish Euros. Selfish, diving, no vision, no execution.

Seen this movie before. England get saved by Kane (83 pen)

Just looking at some of Slovakia's recent results.

Lost home and away v Kazakhstan, lost to Azerbaijan and drew 0-0 with Luxembourg.

Saka and Foden off for Palmer and Gordon at HT.

Yep and Saka isn’t in form either

 

[dazzer6666]

Predictable, clueless, gutless and completely lacking in energy and any dynamism.

On the plus side, it's 30 degrees, I'm watching on a telly outside and the beer is fantastic

 

[Frutos]

Palmer, Toney, Eze, and Gordon all warming up apparently.

Where now?

 

[US Seagull]

Southgate confused as to why Slovakia haven't parked the bus.

 

[Worried Man Blues]

Saafgate looks haunted

 

[dazzer6666]

Where now?

Dubrovnik

I can’t open the Netflix thread

Saafgate looks haunted

Feels like we're going to get a new meme along these lines from today:

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Hopefully Phillips turns up at half time to save us

Agree re Foden…..and after the events of this week you’d think his head space would be elsewhere
