    Euro 2024

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

    Likely Hungary, small chance of Netherlands.

    Euro 2024

    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.

    Euro 2024

    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.

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

    Euro 2024

    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.

    Euro 2024

    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...

    Euro 2024

    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...

    Euro 2024

    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.

    Euro 2024

    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...

    Euro 2024

    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.

    Marshall Island has something against football

    No, never heard of him.

    Marshall Island has something against football

    What about the Pitcairn Islands? I am sure they're a country too. Though with about forty people including women and kids they couldn't make a squad ha.

    Euro 2024

    Predictions for tonight, then France 2-0 Poland. Mbappe first scorer if he starts. If not, Griezmann. Netherlands 1-1 Austria. Baumgartner first scorer. Denmark 1-0 Serbia. Hojbjerg England 2-1 Slovenia. Kane first scorer.

    Euro 2024

    Imagine if it was Austria? An Austria win and a France non-win does it. Unlikely but never know.

    All time XI

    Obviously it is hard to rate players like the full-back reserves and Di Stefano we have only seen on video, but it is just a bit of fun. I have left out so many great players (Zidane, Muller, Best, Puskas, Zico, Ronaldinho, Gullit, Van Basten, Moore etc) but we have to be ruthless. I'd rather...
