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 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.

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.

Surely got to go with 3 at back with guehi out and saka and Trent can play wing backs Switzerlands wingers ndoye and Vargas been there two best players need to keep them quiet also xhaka who will sit and ping the ball all day long to two wingers

Germany scored more goals in their first game than England have managed in the tournament to date. An Spain have scored as many in their last game, as England in the tournament. Will be a good game.

Against a terrible Scotland side, a poor Hungarian side, drew with Switzerland, then they knocked out a very average Denmark, with a lot of help from Var and the referee. I just don't think this current German generation is all that good.

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

3 at the back with walker RCB, Trent RWB and saka LWB, Jude and rice in the middle then Kane up top and take your pick from any 2 of foden, Gordon, palmer either side of Kane. That stretches the pitch and gets the best out of each player

Half-time scores: Alan: 2 Gary: 1 Micah: 0 With all three predicting both England and the Netherlands in the next games, Alan is guaranteed the win. 🎉

One aspect ythat you guys have overlooked. I'm 100% a patriot yet, I do not expect England to win this competition. However, the point I want to make is this: I doubt there's an Englishman watching this competition, that wouldn't PAY for the honour of pulling on an England shirt and running out for the team. I'm equally sure that, these same men, imagine thery would run and run, until their very last breath. So, if England DO go out, we would at least be appeased, IF we saw that the team had done all they could. To paraphrase an English saying: We came into this...'like three Lions', lert's not gou out, '...like lambs'.
