Combed through the squads yesterday and my have Chile fallen(as far as the clubs their players play for). The Americans have come a long way with players playing for Milan, Juve, PSV, Fulham, Palace, Dortmund. Holy shit, Paulo Guerrero is still playing for Peru. He’ll be captaining them as their #9 at the age of 40! Edit a lot of the Chile team is the same as the old one they just all play in Chile now. Team is old as fuck. A lot of the teams are.

Who is that player? Mainoo?

At work so not watching this one but last game they were uncharacteristically direct with goal kicks and had 47% possession. Feel like they're ahead of the curve yet again. Everyone else is building up from the back and they're going direct. Need to learn from them again and play to our strengths rather than trying to play like Barcelona 2011.

Bellingham annoyed me today. Plenty of times he ignored the wide players and turned inside only to be tackled by the Danish midfield two on one. Needs to play simple and use his abilities when needed not forcing it.

Last time we played well was against Italy with Rashford in the team.

Rather him than Foden

We play so slow.

That's sealed his place for the next 10 years.

I swear every player you don't know in this tournament plays for Wolfsburg.

Not gonna go too crazy because Denmark need to attack so should be a more open game.

If I’m going Germany, it’s gonna be all goalkeepers. Kopke, Kahn, Neaur. Not Lehmann, though, too rash.

I loved him and old Tommy ‘onion bag’ Smyth on ESPN CL back in the day but he’s just going over the top right now.

Aye, absolutely jarring.

We get it, Derek, you know about Germany.

That’s shocking from Orban and he’s supposed to be the experienced one.

Feel for Albania.

Italy: Baggio France: Henry Spain: Fabregas Holland: Seedorf Brazil: Ronaldinho Argentina: Messi

Jota will score the winner at some point no matter what happens.

The Czech have been completely suffocated so far.

Aye there was some conversation on the world class talent in their squad yesterday and I think he's one of them.

I don't like change. Doesn't sound as cool or powerful as The Czech Republic

Czechia? What's wrong with The Czech Republic?

Great tragedy the Saudi league taking him from the Premier League. I mean fuck Chelsea but quality player to watch.

Rabiot's clutch. Not as glamorous as Camavinga or Tchouaméni but always gets the job done.

Also if you don't think words hurt, check out Jason Lee's Undr the Cosh where he said being mocked by Fantasy Football back in the day played on his mind every time he missed a chance.
