I can't believe that half is over already.
I fell asleep during the England v Switzerland game. No, really, I did. I was a little tired that afternoon and the match was like a sleeping pill. The last match I fell asleep during was when I was a kid.Likewise, its been a poor quality tournament apart from 1 or 2 games out of what 47 so far?

Seeing some of the quality on offer here, I do wonder if England are as good as we think. Last eight quality, yes. But are the players over-hyped ? We know Bellingham is top class and most of the others are talented and can hold their own well enough at the upper international levels. But a lot of other teams can boast the same.
Does my head in when people watch football with a view to what they get in fantasy football or on bets they make. Enjoy this game cause you ain't going to see this tomorrow!!I'm getting so annoyed with UEFA calling perfectly good goals an o.g. and costing me fantasy points!
Yep.What a first half.
This is what football should be. Entertaining, exciting, attacking.
Everything that Southgate's England aren't.
i'm intrigued as to when you last saw an England team play like this? Our games don't have anywhere near the pace of this match. Bit like comparing a cart horse with a Ferrari, unfortunately! I hope I'm wrong but just don't see it.Probably, although we might be surprised! I get this feeling that England will turn up tomorrow and play their best so far, but lose!
Italia 90 was utterly shit. That was the last one I can remember being as underwhelming as this one.Defo. By the way, I'm struggling to remember such a boring tournament. So many poor games.
Seriously? It's not my sole purpose of watching the game!Does my head in when people watch football with a view to what they get in fantasy football or on bets they make. Enjoy this game cause you ain't going to see this tomorrow!!
I haven't, well, not like this that's for sure! My point is that England have bored me to tears so far but wouldn't surprise me if they turn up tomorrow, play well, dominate the Dutch but end up losing.i'm intrigued as to when you last saw an England team play like this?

Quite. Good players playing for big clubs are not the preserve of England….most other nations have them.I fell asleep during the England v Switzerland game. No, really, I did.

Last Euros was pretty poorItalia 90 was utterly shit. That was the last one I can remember being as underwhelming as this one.
The big difference being France have a winner as a managerEverything france haven't been either till tonight. There's hope yet for us! (Not holding out though)

I’m not exactly sure what Richard’s specifically means but Spain have no shortage of talent over the pitch, energy, cohesion and a pattern to their play. It’s more than just “balance”We do have the quality
Richards just nailed it, they are balanced
So do England, the issue is Southgate just throws players on the pitch that he thinks are the best players, no real thought on how they fit into a system, a system/tactics they are not used to either.I’m not exactly sure what Richard’s specifically means but Spain have no shortage of talent over the pitch, energy, cohesion and a pattern to their play.
