Euro 2016 thread

I think there is a growing number of Spurs who think the colossus Kevin Wimmer might be the better defender. However, it may necessitate a spend on another centre half when we really need to be spending our pennies elsewhere. With Dembele out for the first 4 games and Vertonghen missing for a similar period, we will be a bit thin on experienced cover.

Maybe Dom Ball or CCV will get the chance in pre-season to lay a claim to a meaningful squad place? I hope so.

 

Anyone agrees with Lee Dixon that Slaven Bilic is the man to replace Roy Hodgson? He wouldn't want to leave West Ham anyway!

 

I like to take a risk in job interviews. When I get the "what do you know about our company?" question I answer "well your range is ****, that's why you need a buyer like me to sort it out"

 

That Renato Sanches looks class.

 

He's only 18 and Bayern just spent €35 rising to €80m on him. You'd bloody hope so!

 

first time ive seen him, i was going to suggest we put a bid in for him

 

Well that's official

 

Portugal have played 5, won 0 in 90 minutes and are now in the semis

 

Its not what you do but the way that you do it..... x3

And that's what its all about.

 

Apparently Vertonghen is 4-6 weeks only.

 

I don't read emoji. Is that disbelief/derision or pleasure he's back for the opening game?

 

I thought it wasm

I thought it was 'Happy' but the more I look at it, the more it looks like a cross between 'Dopey' and 'Sneezy'.

 

Moronho is probably rubbing himself off at the thought of such bold, inventive football.

 

I'm much more kindly disposed towards Portugal than I was. With all these games starting at 3 my time, I face the difficult choice of watching the second half when I get home from work or taking a nap. With Portugal, I got to do both. Within a few minutes of turning on the Poland game, I was out like a light. It would have been even faster had I not been distracted by the comparatively thrilling spectacle of grass growing. I was up just in time for pens. While disappointed that Portugal won, I look forward to another profoundly relaxing experience in the semifinals.

 

Has anyone ever won a tournament without winning a game in 90 minutes? Could be a first.

 

I keep asking myself what particular plans Nemesis has for Portugal and CR7 in Euro 2016.
Something akin to the Brasil-Germany WC SF game ??

 

Great strike. 1-0 Belgium. Bye bye Wales.

 

Eden Hazard has somehow picked up more assists (four) during the Euros than he did in the whole season for Chelsea.

 

Or maybe not
