2021 Euro 2020 - Page 3

Man, we really should have reactivated Miroslav Klose, who must be about 45 years old now, but would have had a better goal tally than those X-legged wimps we have for forwards.

Oh well, there's still time to latch onto the hypetrain across the Rhine. Hopp, Schwiiz!*

I bet Klopp will be getting a call on his handy to be the next German coach sooner rather than later.

Westheim · 06-29-2021, 05:51 PM

The new Bundestrainer was already lined up before the tournament (Hansi Flick of the revolting Red Munich team).

And because Red Munich is Red Munich, they raided Red Bull Leipzig for their manager to put them in their place.

Michael Oliver drops Switzerland 10 ten men with a questionable straight red card. An example of why there were no English refs at the last World Cup.

Westheim · 07-02-2021, 03:44 PM

That was a couple of pretty pathetic penalties there.

Yeah. As sharp as they looked taking them against France, they looked as bad against Spain. Not that Spain was spectacular.

I think he will be able to continue his playing career if he is willing to find doctors to give him the go-ahead and a FA/League/team willing to take on that risk.
And he and his family offer to waive any liability if he was to die or being seriously injured from playing.

Daley Blind an ex teammate of Erikson will be the go to guy for any info.

I'm surprised at just how bad Belgium looked. I figured Italy would win, I just didn't think Belgium wouldn't put up a fight. They were good at countering, but that's about it.

Roberto Martinez plain and simple, I watched him for years at Wigan Athletic, when he needs to change things he's lost. Of I were Belgium I'd change their coach, once some of those players start to retire or slow down specially defenders he'll be even more lost.

****ty tournament so far, go Italy!

Well, not exactly ****ty, I just don't dig the fact the Euros is held across Europe.

Nothing to do with the fact the Dutch sucked, either

That was a screaming stupid idea even before 'rona.

But hey, the next Euro is over here, and you guys don't have to drive very far at all with your RVs.

If you qualify, that is

I deserved that one.

Meanwhile, we're down to five with the Czech Republic sent home.

I am rooting hard, but in utter futility for Ukraine later.

Ragnar · 07-03-2021, 03:10 PM

I thought this first match was gonna suck, it did everything but. Maybe I'm weird, but that match was exciting. Best one I've seen. Second to only the France loss.

Hageneezz · 07-03-2021, 03:15 PM

We did win the last time the Euros were held in Germany, in 1788 or so...

These guys are tired, playing long tournaments against season schedules crunched by The Coof. It’s no wonder the games are becoming more boring as they go on. Doesn’t help how most footballers today are as interesting as wet dirt. Wtf happened to all the personalities in football?? It’s the reason I wanted Portugal to go far, because Ronaldo is so fun to watch.

Westheim · 07-03-2021, 05:10 PM

Well, that bread is buttered......

Westheim · 07-07-2021, 03:50 PM

France lost to Switzerland on penalties.
Switzerland lost to Spain on penalties.
Spain lost to Italy on penalties.

Maybe Italy will want to not be tied after 120 minutes on Sunday.

rudel.dietrich · 07-08-2021, 09:10 PM

So UEFA rule that Schmeichel had a laser shown into his eyes, but England gets to keep their win 🤔

Maybe one day England will win a major tournament they actually deserve
