Not so sure you can beat Holland myself. I'm all Holland tomorrow as there's 2 Liverpool players compared 2 to 1 who doesn't start which is really odd in itself.

At least we know the job ahead, tough game against Netherlands, IF we can beat them, then we play the best. Otherwise all Gareth's critics will say but yeah you had the easiest teams, you know how these numbskulls think.

Knowing England and the way we’ve lucked it through so far, we’ll get to the final and beat Spain on penalties having had no shots on target in 120 mins and just 10-15% possession, with Spain having hit the woodwork 6 times and Pickford continuing his prime Buffon impersonation that he often does for England with about 9 phenomenal saves.
Would love it.

I'll be watching out in west Wales.

No idea what the locals will be like, I think they're a bit more England friendly in Pembs but never watched a match out.

It won't be enjoyable regardless.
There's a few that get a strop on if there's any kind of sign that you're enjoying England winning in any way, it's tempting to wind them up.

The best team doesn’t always win. Look at last season’s FA Cup Final

The one in which we were the better team (on the day) you mean?

Can see where you're coming from, kind of, but there is no indication that Southgate can pull that tactical rabbit out of the hat based on any previous evidence.

Got to win tonight first of course.

Yeah, first we have to worry about the Dutch, not even worth thinking about Spain at this point. I’m hoping for a far more open game than we’ve seen from England so far.
