This is the point where minds wander and the tournament drops off the boil for me.

I think the press will be full on but the hacks will be back on the rumour mill as theres only so much england stuff you can write during the week.

The same tired rumours will start and we will probably not get press hunting round england for bad stories or leaking the team as the journalist will be hung drawn and quartered
 
if we get thru we will have played the teams ranked 7 8 10 16 in Uefa rankings noting we are ranked 3rd and Spain Italy are 5th & 6th .

Rankings don't mean too much though tbf. We're definitely not third best, Belgium aren't the best.

So we’ve had easy ride given we’ve played list of teams massively lower ranked than us?

Just to clear it up. England currently ranked 4th

4th

Although I expect that will change after the Euros.
Belgium, France and Brazil are the only teams ahead of England.
 
both <laugh>
not so sure Italy will beat Spain and if they do i doubt they will dismantle us since Southgate is a very pragmatic manager .

I think Spain are bang average tbh. Morata offers fck all up front and I can't see where the goals will come from against Italy. Italy on the other hand have played the best football most consistently of any team throughout the tournament. Their attack will pull that Spanish defence apart imo.

They're an incredible side. Insigne is the player of the tournament for me, I could watch that bloke play all day.

Italy vs England final - by which time Italy's injuries will be too much for them to play their natural game, and we'll be too good.
