They're a team of cocky bottlers though. Just like England.

I figured you'd be rootin for the french Mitchum.

Malheuresment, non.
Domenesch doesn't know his best eleven.
Abidal over Clichy etc. Malouda. Blah. Blah. Blah.

Fancy Benzema to finish top scorer at 30/1 though.
He probably won't even start.

We all did really really well with our World Cup predictions two years ago: http://www.thumped.com/bbs/showthread.php?t=36803

I've just rediscovered the Roberto Baggio game that I played throughout Germany 2006: http://www.tvnet.lv/resources/games/game.php?id=1991945

Happy days.

If he won't start then why would you fancy him?

 

[avernus]

If he won't start then why would you fancy him?

cos he's so good he'll probably end up top scorer from the bench.

This has to be the worst opening to a major football tournament ever. It's like a really bad new order video.

 

[Janer]

Did New Order actually have an actual bad video?

 

[Stan Bowles]

Yes

God Croatia have looked awful so far, they're just strolling around the field and apart from scoring the penalty Modric hasn't been in the game at all.

The fact that Croatia were able to beat England twice puts into perspective what a terrible job Mc Laren did. I know they're missing Eduardo but Boban, Suker et al they are not.

Also I thought Turkey were rubbish last night, they have to be contenders for the most talentless team in the competition. The Czech Republic looked average too.

It makes it even more frustrating that we didn't qualify. Bleedin Stan.

 

[Luther Blissett]

The Italian commentators have just given Modric the man of the match award. I must have been watching a different game.

That German manager is pretty damn stylish.

Was going to put some money on them to win it, never placed a bet before...are you still able to even though the contest is started?

I heard about this comedy but didn't see it! What happened?

course you are, but their odds as favourites will be even shorter after that tight display.

ah i see, thought that might have been the case alright..i should have got in there sooner.

they began at 4-1. I doubt their odds will get shorter than that - or at least before we see what happens today.

International football boo, competition devalued, no sense of occasion, Rooney stag, will Ronaldo leave? will you Cristiano?, ITV not showing devalued final, who cares?, struggling to summon any interest at all, poor standard, devalued, boring Europeans, who will you support?, devalued.
