I watched the Serbia v Germany game last night, and I have to say I really quite enjoyed it, especially the first half. The goals were two absolute crackers (I didn't realise Can was a German to be honest), and it was very refreshing to see a German getting sent off after a quite ridiculous dive (in fact the referee was excellent). If the rest of the tournament is as good it will be interesting.

Bit dodgy at the back Germany like, see them getting hit on the break if they play England.
Holland never qualified for this and their national team are struggling, food for thought.

They did look all over the place at the back at times mate, I wonder whether a part of that was because they expected to win the game easily. I think the Serbs took them by surprise by getting in their faces and pressing high on them as well. It was a dangerous game but it paid off for them because the German got sent off. I expect the Germans to get better.

Very weak league defensively the Bundesliga. You will also note that there is only 1 Bayern Munich player in the squad I think, highlights why they are always in heavy for most young and decent German lads from the other Bundesliga Clubs that as their own youth system is very poor.

Southgate generally sets his teams up well, playing decent football so looking forward to tonight's match.

See England lost 1-0 eh? Did anybody actually watch that garbage last night? Sounds like Southgate is bedding them in nicely for when they make the step up to the full squad.  |

Played well in qualifying like, did anyone watch any of those matches? On holiday so never saw it on Thursday.
Done something Spain and Holland never did anyway - qualify.

Yeah I watched it and we were the better side except for 25 mins in the second half where they came into the game and scored.
Another night we'd have won so just gotta see how we play against Sweden.
Portugal were diving sh*ts mind, Carvalho or whatever his name is (holding midfielder) was very impressive for them though.
