Southgate is such a boring cunt, isn't he? Making one change and that change being Conor Gallagher.

Thanks. yeah it does bother me but I can't change the world, so might as well get on with it.

I know. But it can be argued that 25-29 is more prime. The definition of prime is hugely contested - some think it's a bit younger than you say, some think it is smack bang where you say. It is also highly dependent on player. Fernandes and Bernardo have been doing well but Cancelo's career has...

To be fair Fernandes, Bernardo and Cancelo are all 30 this year. Ronaldo and Pepe are absolutely ancient (though Pepe still doing well). They do have a fair few young dynamic players, though. Portugal vs France is a tough pick.

Let's hope that happens. We need Denmark to win and England to draw for that to happen.

Likely Hungary, small chance of Netherlands.

Austria have been one of the best teams in this tournament. I went for a draw and am annoyed I didn't go the whole way and back them to win (my young cousin went 2-1 Austria).

Yeah, as quantity rises it gets harder to maintain a high percentage.

Fuck me, have Maignan and T Hernandez in fantasy. So that retaken penalty costs me two sets of clean sheet points AND a penalty save.

Still twenty minutes for me to have egg on my face yet mate :ROFLMAO:

Yeah I alluded to possible suspensions earlier. That would be my concern for them too.

To be honest I think Austria would give Spain a better game than Netherlands would. Austria have been better than NL in this tournament. People are judging teams too much on paper, in my opinion.

True, but United are a joke of a club and forced Ronaldo in him. He is generally a better technical director but he's managed Austria well. Also, I read somewhere he is responsible for the last 10-15 years of altering Austrian football too, so he is reaping the benefits.

Austria have some good players, but I get your point. The thing is, in football, quality of players is very important - but so is coaching. There are plenty teams with better players than Austria but not many who are better coached. Every Austrian player has been drilled to know where to be...

Nearly spat my fucking milk out.

Austria are a dark horse in this competition. The high-pressing energy and the quality on the ball could cause many teams problems. I think they have 9 yellow cards though so they'll probably end up with suspensions as the tournament progresses. Been hugely impressed with them in this first...

Not sure, to be honest I agree with you. They should have enough for Poland (especially a demotivated Polish side) without him. I guess Deschamps doesn't wanna take any chances. He's gone for a defensive midfield so looks like he wants Mbappe magic in front of that.

Exactly, it was definitely gonna happen when I picked him in fantasy lol. On a serious note, he tends to play every game, and France aren't assured of first yet, so this is a surprise. I also am with you on Barcola; he hasn't really had a chance for the NT yet and will be interesting to see if...

Mbappe playing; no Griezmann. Of course I picked Griezmann in the fantasy game as I didn't wanna gamble on Mbappe starting. Baumgartner rested for Austria too.

No, never heard of him.
