Euro 2016

wow wales side of the draw compared to english side with italy spain germany and france in it

Spain v Italy in round two

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

In the last 16 no less. Who would have thought it?

I actually now think, either Wales or N Ireland now probably could go further than England....We will find out who England's opponents will be soon enough N Ireland's heroics against Germany has to be one of the performances of the tournament holding the world champions to a 1-0 win is no mean feat. Spain pretty much look liked they had run out of ideas once they went 2-1 down and it showed. the penalty was an absolutely piss poor one, they were lucky it wasn't re - taken. How the linesman missed that was fortunate. Slaven Bilic (who for me is the pundit of the whole tournament on either channel) was delighted!!
I think the Italians can probably send them home with their tails between their legs I fancy Italy to reach the final now. finishing second hasn't worked out too badly for England in some respects but from here on in we know we have to raise our game quite considerably if we want to go further and even win it.

Roy has to get every team change and substitution spot on from now on. I think the side we had against Wales will probably be the one he'll put on out next Monday whoever we play...but I would not hesitate to give Rashford a start, I think whoever we play Rashford is likely to give us that extra injection of pace and rest Joe Hart give Forster a game. Play Rooney & Kane and keep Kane away from free kick and corner duties!!

I doubt if The FA will sack Roy or Roy will quit after this competition. When the time comes to make a change, I think England should go for Slaven Bilic, he probably would relish the opportunity...

Roy's Hodgson contract is up for renewing after the Euros
It's understood that England have got to reach the semis for Roys contract to be continued.
If we get knocked out in the quarterfinals it will be decided how we have played.

So many positive things about this tournament, hardly any foul play, no diving, no dissent, no straight red cards as yet and very few officiating controversies. In many ways the tournament could hardly have gone better, although 58 goals in 32 matches is very miserly.

Roy should get sacked at the end of the Euros and replaced with Redknapp. The only England players that have been decent so far have been; Sturridge (1 goal and 1 assist), Vardy (1 goal), Dier (1 goal), Walker, Rose and Clyne.

Agree he should go but I'd go for Mark Warburton , I know he's a relatively inexperienced manager but I like his approach as he seems to pick his teams on form .
