Prior to 2024 Euros: Bellingham- Best player in La liga Kane - Highest goalscorer in Bundesliga Foden - Best player in English Premiership Prior to 2002 World Cup: T. Henry - Highest goalscorer in English Premiership D. Trezeguet - Highest goalscorer in Serie A/Italian . France as a defending champion was defeated by debutants/Senegal and never made it out of the group stages. My point? Individual accolades takes the team nowhere ...teamwork pays at the end!

I remember France and Argentina were the top favourites before the Word Cup 2002, and both went out in the group stages. Only in hindsight it was 'clear Brazil had to win this' with their attack including Rondaldo, Ronaldinho and Rivaldo.

I do think Germany have been a little overrated, this tournament. Especially compared to Spain. They hammered Scotland so people ran with it. They drew with Switzerland, then had a bit of luck with decisions against Denmark. They deserved to win that match but it wasn't a particularly impressive win. Still have home advantage though, so who knows?

An underrated point for France is that they have a super strong defensive effort. 1 goal was conceded in 4 matches and they played Austria, Netherlands, Poland and Belgium (all decent sides). They have 6 players whose main strengths are the defence skills, Kounde, Upamec. Saliba, Tchochuam. Kante and Rabiot. I think they advance against Portugal.

I think Micah has got it somewhat right about how we beat Switzerland. But he's got a major thing wrong in his analysis, Switzerland's right side (defensively) is actually their strongest, and we saw that against Italy. I re-watched the Italy Switzerland game in full, and it's actually their left side (Rodriguez, Aebischer) that is very weak, Rodriguez looks for pockets in midfield and the runs of Embolo/Vargas on his amazing left-foot (rarely uses Aebischer as an option), but when he's pressed and forced onto his right side he is heavily reliant on Akanji saving the day. Also Aebischer even when he's not high up, gets caught in behind a lot, a simple 1, 2 has been enough to catch him off guard. If we press as a team, and go out there and be brave, we'll breeze this Swiss side. But again, it's a massive IF, just as every other game has been. I hope Gareth finally gets it right.

Palmer Gordon Tony Bowen will all be last rolls of the dice in late pragmatic substitutions? This is Safegate’s LAST game?

Regarding ENG - we all hope Southgate will suddenly change tactics and play 2 wingers, but we also know it ain't going to happen. However, will the absence of Guehi force him out of his shell? Can we play with more confidence and freedom like it's a U19 game? Can we control midfield - agree, that' s the key. C'mon England.

Spain - Germany is a difficult call but I’m going with Alan on that one. France v Portugal? Somehow I think France will show up today and get a couple of goals.

Sky sports reporting they have been training with 3 at the back. One possible line up is: Pickford Walker Stones Shaw? But probably Konza TAA but probably Trippier Rice Mainoo Saka Foden Bellingham Kane.

You can compare Mbappe to aged Messi and Ronaldo as a superstar, but he's not on the same level as those two guys were with the football. With Mbappe you've got to accept he's not the greatest finisher or passer but he's so quick he'll always have multiple chances to score, hence his record. Also there's no way I'm taking penalties for England like Gary, if we're not good enough to beat Switzerland in normal time or at least dominate the game in an attacking manner we don't deserve to go through, simple as that. No disrespect to the Swiss but it's a comparatively small country with less talent in the squad.

It's about time Southgate released the handbrake and released the dogs of war if this is his final tournament

It will be Saka and Foden again. There will be one enforced change in defence, so it’s more of the same from Southgate. Try for a narrow, slow, backs-against-the-wall win

@waynehutchoNFFC 3 күн бұрын

If Gareth changes formation to a back 3 with Jude & foden both no. 10's then I can see a much better performance coming. I just hope the end of the Slovakia game where he changed it, is the moment it turned for us

@LocoJunius 3 күн бұрын

I think he'll change it and is gonna go for it now, it's been widely reported he's gonna play 3 CB's and high WB's. Southgate has been noticeably different in the media after last game and it seems he might be listening but we will see.

@steveallen3434 3 күн бұрын

England wins if we play Godon as the out ball over the top. Because England needs an out ball and Kane is not the answer. We need someone to run with the ball as well, and Gordon fits that bill as well . With Kane being our best long passer I think Gondon could be the man for Kane to find if he drops. I would drop Fodon because I think it would give Kane more room and give Bellingham more room when moving forward. May the luck be with us

@jeremymuir4332 4 күн бұрын

the bizarre thing is that the way to beat a back 3 is with wide men receiving cross field balls or running high with overlap and Southgate's team has thus far played in antithesis to that. I'm not surprised Kane felt discombobulated. England have made defending a relatively simple task so far. No penetration. I wouldn't gamble on England winning this game BUT Switzerland will score first.
