The Fun Factory Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 (edited) Its such a shame as when it was a 16 team competition the Euros was great. Now the group stage is largely pointless and the tournament doesn't really get going until the quarters.

Bastard to spell both Hazards are in the squad. Saelemakers didnt make it but Chadli and Vermaelen did Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AXD Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 3 hours ago, BOF said: A grand total of 5 defenders in Belgium's Euro 2020 squad Although they have Castagne down as a midfielder so we'll say 6. Same with Meunier. 5 players for 3 positions (CB) seems fair enough. Also Dendoncker can also play in central defence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Verschaere and De Ketelaere are far from ready to be regular PL players. They have the talent but are not ready yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonderful RB He is But he also can't play in a Southgate back 4 because he's not good enough defensively And he's been shit this season, cash has been better If we play 5 at the back and don't take him then yeah we've **** up but otherwise got no problem with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 French media reporting that Benzema is back in the national side. So much for the lifetime ban i guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes a wonderful player and back in form and he could play in a back four with two solid holding midfield players. But Southgate wont pick him or Grealish anyway.

After Alexander Arnold should have been sent off for crippling Trezeguet because of his poor defending. Great footballer shit defender, you cant bring a liability like that to a tournament when England have better all rounders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foden outshone Mbappe in the champions league games. I think England have a great chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
