    Getting bored with all these draws, feels like the game was a waste of time.  I should probably only watch games that can end with penalties!  :D

    I think 3 draws out of 21 games do far is very low

    Is that all?  It's been 3 out of the 4 games that I've watched!  Sounds like I need to make better game choices in that case!  :D

            Maybe if the players found the passion their fans have we would see much better games  ;)

    @OverlyAnxious it was 2 out of 3 draws yesterday alone lol. I apologise it's been  4 out of 21 as I forgot to add last night's late game.

    England were quite poor last night, well done to Scotland. Although I feel as though an England side that plays with tempo and purpose would have won that game, in the instances where they stepped up their intensity they created chances.

    Very difficult watch last night, England lacked intensity, drive and the ability to create a clear cut chance. It's hard to see how they can go far in this tournament. With the greatest of respect, Scotland are the third lowest ranked side and we struggled to create anything, well done to Scotland though, great performance and were unlucky not to take all three points. I don't know why England played as sluggishly as they did, maybe the occasion got the better of them, for most it was their first game against Scotland, but I do think you also have to question some of the decisions made from the touch line. Foden was arguably our best outfield player and yet he was subbed in the second half :open_mouth: Oh well, a point is better than nothing and we must move onto the next game. Thank you.

    I'll certainly be following along @Sandy_123, surely a France win? 

    I agree with you @WestHam06, after the first two games it's hard to see England going far. I'm contemplating in my mind whether the slow build up and cautious approach is deliberate and planned, because it feels as though that's the way we've been playing for the whole season. I do wonder what happened to the site that was playing fast attacking football and hitting 5 past teams regularly in 2019.

    @Ross_Scope yes France are a good team, depends if players have been changed etc,

    Looks as though they haven't been @Sandy_123. I'm cheering for Hungary :)

    Germany get two lucky own goals against Portugal, would you believe it.

    Portugal should win this though. Maybe...?

    I must admit they were forced errors @Ross_Scope, could be yet another draw.

    I have a small bet on Germany as I won a bit from them winning the World Cup :D
