    France vs Albania. First they start off by playing the national anthem for Andorra and then after realising their mistake apologise to Armenia. <doh>

    To be fair they all begin and end with an a. At least they played European ones, could have ended up with Angola, Argentina, Australia or Antigua and Barbuda as well before hitting on the right one.

    Looked from the highlights a comfortable win, Sterling has certainly improved under the coaching of Guardiola, he looks the complete player now. It will be a harder test Tuesday, they haven't lost for 15 games, so will be interesting to see how we perform against this opposition?

    Simply ticking over England at the minute. Doubt we’ll be tested until we play somebody with a midfield good enough who deny us the ball for long periods of the game,and that won’t happen until round about the semi finals of the competition.

    FIFA WC 2026 in the US, Canada and Mexico..I'm saving up already...
    Thankfully, the bulk of the games are in the US.

    Kosovo shouldn't be taken lightly; they've now got a fully professional side, which is remarkable considering two years ago they were ranked 177th.

    They have some players based in England, such as Atdhe Nuhiu, Florent Haderghonaj and Bersant Celina.

    Their star player is Valon Berisha, a midfielder.

    Will be an interesting game, they're certainly a better team than Bulgaria, despite their ranking.

    Agree with this - should be an interesting match.

    If I do bet on this match, I will consider betting on Kosovo to score. BTTS is something like 12/5 and England looked vulnerable on Saturday.

    Don't get me wrong, I expect England to win, but I do expect something from them - even if it's not as remarkable as a goal. They're on a 15 match unbeaten run too and have an excellent chance of second spot - which considering there's Czech (and the other two generally speaking are no mugs) - shows the progress they have made.

    Also, note the match at St Mary's. Recall Macedonia giving us the runaround there a few years back in a 2-2 draw.

    If they were around a few years ago they could've had an even better side - players like Xherdan Shaqiri, Adnan Januzaj, Granit Xhaka and Valon Behrami among a few others.

    Don't you know your geography? Australia is in Europe. Watch Eurovision and get educated. I've even been to its wonderful capital city, Vienna. Everybody throwing shrimps on the barbie as I recall.

    Not anymore they’re not.

    They’re not as good as England, but they’re better than Bulgaria. They’re second in the group for a reason.

    Are you for real? Canberra is a very large country located above the United States, full of snow, and ice hockey is the national sport.....jeez, you say some outlandish things. Could the moderator intervene here and ban this cretin.
