honestly , i think england won't do good in this euro as usual , but u got Germany , France , Spain and Netherland , and am sure Germany won't be easy to beat , portugal will do something if Ronaldo plays with teamwork , England must play with teamwork every Euro or world cup they lose because there is no teamwork maybe they will pass the Groups stage but in the knockout stage they will have big pressure , i really feel sad for robben cuz he lost the world cup and Champions League ( 2010&2012 ) he must do something special this euro to win it . that's all i got for now Gobble

England wont get past group stages lets face it they can't perform as a team, Germany,Netherlands or Spain to win Smile


But... the lack of pressure now and the fact that they haven't got the same slow, uninspiring players in the middle, might do them the world of good?

Personally I don't think missing Barry and Lampard in the midfield is as bad it seems the team may even have some flair to them for once - well I would say that but they don't seem to have any defensive midfielders now lol?

They looked a bit flat against Norway although attackingly they look fairly strong especially with Young in top form and hopefully a Rooney Welbeck partnership a few games in.


haha may put £1 on it, odds will be in the 50's Winky Winky and yeah no CDMs at the moment, henderson replacing frank, and as a Liverpool supporter I'm still disappointed :\

not worried about attack, hopefully carroll gets a few games, I do believe in him stare but young on the wing is a must have

Yeah Carroll looks like a good pick actually. He's played well in his last few games.

I defeated!
England might supprise us you never know. I'll be supporting them there is less expectation to do well everyone thinks we won't get past the group stages so that might work in our favour. Previous tournaments we have said England will get to the final but don't get past the quater finals so maybe if we say the opposite we will do well. Happy

Defensive Midfielders? Maybe Roy Hodgson could call Michael Carrick or even Paul Schools back into the squad? Better if he would call back Michael Carrick due to how much fitter he is than Paul Schools and that's what we'll need if we have any chance of winning the Euro's,
Good Passers
Good Players With The Ball
Good Defensive Midfielding Players
and overall Someone Who Can Pick Out A Pass get those strikers working is what we need.
