I tend to think that too, but not sure Slovenia have enough. Sesko hasn't done much the last two games. We'll see though - I have until Monday night to decide.

I changed Portugal to 2-0 as I am not convinced Slovenia are able to score. Might take on board the advice about not going for an England win with more than 1 goal difference, might keep it, haven't decided. Other than that I am sticking with the same predictions I posted the other day.

You've convinced me, and I do like Federer to be honest. If I change and they win I will be kicking myself, so I am gonna back them.

Still not sure on the Swiss prediction. Thinking about changing it to Italy but will be kicking myself if the Swiss do indeed progress. Maybe stick with my first hunch/instinct.

I wondered if he was playing with me, lol. Yeah they're great. Asylum and City are fun.

No problem. The image is cool, you're right.

Fair enough.

We will see what happens then mate. I would like to see a Spain-Germany QF, think it will be some game. Like you say if Denmark win it would be a big upset. On my screen you have an avatar photo of the Joker in the Arkham games. Horatio has an anime avatar? Maybe you just like the photo and...

True, I never said he was as good as Maradona or Messi, because they're a lot better. I am saying he's arguably a top 20 talent of all time. I think that's fair.

I agree with you that Germany should win. However, Germany aren't infallible - if Denmark can frustrate them and keep a clean sheet they can score a goal on the counter. Hjulmand being suspended is a blow. They also need a big game from Hojlund which I am not sure he has in him (not a fan)...

True, Neymar is an absolute genius of a footballer, he's just a bit of a knob of a man. He achieved a lot but he could have achieved much more. A player of his quality should really be a World Cup winner (though not really his fault he isn't as he was injured when Germany hammered Brazil, but he...

Watched him a lot at Man United (admittedly through anti United eyes). He's still a bit of a head down and run merchant, overly direct at times and doesn't have the right idea when to attack a full-back and when to maintain possession (though United are a counter-attack team anyway). He should...

Too many people (including players) care way too much about the Ballon d'or imo. Individual trophies in team sports make little sense. I mean it's right that Messi has won it so much, but he would still be the best even if he hadn't. I just feel that it's silly to have an individual award in a...

Fair enough. Some good points there even if I don't agree with absolutely everything.

Good stuff. It has a good chance of happening, though there's a few games that could turn out the opposite.

Lewandowski has been a great goalscorer throughout his career, but Barcelona really shouldn't be relying on a guy who will turn 36 before the season starts, in my opinion. I know they don't have much option though, such is the bed that they've made for themselves. I'd still try to give others a...

Me too, I just am not brave enough to back Austria or Switzerland against them, if they face either at any point. I mean those teams have played better football than England, look better than England...it's simply that the historical teams tend to find a way through against middle-ranked nations...

You might be right mate. I can edit it right up til kick off of Switzerland-Italy anyways.

Yeah true - that was the toughest choice for me. I believe the winner of that game (should they both make it through the R16) will win the tournament. Spain v Italy and Austria v Netherlands were the most impressive performances of the group stage for me. Might be missing one or two.

He's a real class player from what I have watched in the last three years - hopefully the injuries start to leave him behind, though you never can tell. He really can become a controller and a force for Barca and Spain. Barca are in a difficult position at the moment as you all know, but...
