Looks like Roy is going to play Andy Carroll and drop Oxlade Chamberlain for this one. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/eu...-Welbeck-Alex-Oxlade-Chamberlain-dropped.html I think it will be another draw,
As well as Ox did in the last game I think this is a smart move. Wellbeck looked isolated and Young didn't play the support role too well. Playing Young on the wing and two up top should give us a bit more going forward. It also means we can use Ox as a sub, meaning Henderson can stay in the stands where he belongs.
This match will hinge on Zlatan. If he is up for it I can see Sweden sneaking a 1 - 0 win. If not it will be a 0 - 0 draw. Woy should drop Milner as he is useless especially on the wing. Play Walcott and/or Ox/Young on the wing. We need pace on the wings not a workhorse donkey like milner/downing.
I was saying Caroll needed to be brought on to move their defence a bit higher upfield. Our game plan was threading balls behind defence and with no tall striker to offer aerial threat, frances defence was sat so deep even superman couldnt have made a run behind into enough space for a decent shot. With Carroll on their defence will be forced to play higher up else a long ball could easily be nodded either into the net or knocked down to an attacking player in a dangerous position where they could smash it in first touch.
Way too harsh on Henderson, there's definitely a place on the bench for him. Either handing out the water bottles or tracksuits for subbed players. I'm sure he could manage that.
though I wasn't going to watch the euros iv watched every game . ( and lost 5 £10 bets so far ) £10 on England to Win 3-1
Best not be I nearly chucked £50 on England -1 at 3/1 but decided to play safe on England win at 6/4 instead.
The OX should drop to the bench IMO. He can be used as an impact sub imo. Ashley Young to the wing and Carroll up top is the perfect foil for Welbeck. Sweden will be a battle and AC is the perfect battering ram. I expect England to finally break the Swedish hoodoo and the Frogs to draw with Ukraine. England 4 pts Ukraine 4 pts France 2 pts Sweden nil pts Going into the last game and with Rooney back Happy days. Then the fun will really start. Italy or Croatia in the QTRS.
1-1 draw tonight and prob a boring one at that.Anyone know the odds for Holland to win or finnish runners up?,on works comp.
Well they have a train system that works, great health care and gorgeous blondes. overall 6th vs 18th on the quality of life index. Sweden win. But you meant football. So England 2-1.
Good, but the best way to do it is back Denmark to finish bottom. If holland beat Portugal by 2 clear goals and Germans beat Denmark, they will finish bottom. £2 stake gets me £60 profit on Betfair. Just checked again and the odds now dropped to 25/1 but still a cracking bet that.
Cheers P Bob,wasnt clear meant win the euros outright or runners up.(are e/w bets poss in football?).The Denmark bet sounds a good un n worth £2 of anyones hard earned.
Fab odds!...worth a small punt reaching final? or just unrest in camp and out with a whimper ala england 2010?
I've already got a tender on them to win, might chuck a fiver at them reaching the final but it's looking increasingly likely to be the krouts and the spaniards. Good odds on a France/England promotion from our group but I don't think it's written in stone. Can see either us or France imploding.
Roy will go all out to win this. Sweden are the weakest team in this group so we'll have nothing to fear regarding the opposition, Ibrahimovic included as he rarely puts in match winning performances for sweden. i see the media and others once again are getting on the managers back about tactics, team selection or whatever they can think of. no matter what england do it wont be good enough, they'll always be something to pick at and slag off. one of the worst things in our country is the bloody media. personally i think we'll win 2-0.
