We were better than France last time out, but they got lucky. I think both sides are quite even. Except their defence is a lot better!
The latter part is why I think we have no chance. We are in terrible form as well, which doesn't help but we a group win would likely put us on the favorable side of the draw at least.
We more than matched them at the WC imo. Lost due to two long distance efforts and our record scorer skying a pen. I've a feeling France might have a dodgy tournament. They're certainly due one.
I think England are more likely to have a dodgy tournament tbh. Our defence is so bad. No fit LB, RB had a poor season and is past his best. Add in an untested CB partnership including one novice at international level and one who has been out injured ages and is a bit lightweight. Not sure we know how to play all our forward talent together either tbh. We are the weakest of the ‘favourites’ imo. The last Euros was the one we should have won The good news is I get international football wrong even more than club football so we’ll probably win it
I momentarily feel bad for them, but then imagine all the **** they would give us for something like this.
Good job we've got this American rules expert. Don't think we'd understand what's going on otherwise.
