It's beyond ridiculous how some teams essentially play entire group stage at home, while we have to travel from Russia to Spain and back to Russia again, all within 9 days. Far from the only case too, whoever approved this tournament format should be flogged.

It's the baby of that rat Platini.

Enough said. 🤦🏼‍♂️
 
A win is a win but Southgate will come undone if he sticks to playing people like Trippier as LB wtf. Also I really wanted to see Grealish....... instead of Sterling.
 
Bigger blame would go to shambolic defending, wtf was that.
Also seemed Glik got a small deflection?

Yeah I think it was a tiny deflection. Still should be making that save 100% of the time though, all the Slovaks in the box were double marked, you just have to cover the post.
 
Well that's bullshit, tournament basically over after 1 game. Super unlucky first goal, super soft red-card, we still dominated the play with Slovaks wasting time since 70 minute while having 1-man advantage. And now we have to go travel 4000 kilometers to play Spain in Sevilla, thanks UEFA.
 
Goal of the tournament already from the Czech yesterday. WOW!!!!!. Devoed for Scotland as they matched them in all but the quality up front.

@Tyton Sorry mate, looked two defo bookings for me. Stupid challenge to make when you're already on a card. You know how it goes in majors. Poland are by no means out of this tournament. That group isn't strong at all.

The Spain game left me wondering which is the biggest flop of a big name/ price strike across Europe? Morata or Werner?

The same Werner who played a key role in getting his side to a Champions League trophy?

Still Andy Carroll.
 
Interesting definition of 'key' role you have going on there.

Started nearly every single game in the entire run…His run was decisive for Havertz goal in the finals. Scored vs Real Madrid in the 2nd leg.

Why do you think his role was not ‘key’?
 
I mean he called Tuchel also Top 4 manager fraud soooo

But Werner and Morata seems to be made from the same mold, cant argue there. Cant hit a barn door, confidence will bottom fast. Morata somehow, no idea how, managed to jump from top clubs to top clubs.
His stint at RM 2016 was the saving crace i think.

Aye.

Which he completely bollocksed up without the help of Brandan Rodgers and his latest spineless team collapsing late. For the second straight year.

Kudos to him for the CL mind.

He offered little difference that you couldn't have got out of other players.

Let's not pretend Werner had either a good individual year or is a top striker just because he was part of a team that won the biggest prize of all last year.

But he is rapid like ......

Group is weak sure but when we lose the first game and now have to travel half the planet to Spain who have unfair advantage of playing at home, it's gonna be rough to get even a draw.

I never said he is a top striker or had a good individual year. But credit has to be given to someone who was a regular starter in a team that won the CL. Clearly he offers something important aside from the goals.

That said, he definitely has to massively improve on the goalscoring front next season.

Just crossed my mind. Alexis Sanchez deserves a shout. If it wasnt a swap deal, he would be numerno uno.
