Day 3 | Poland vs Netherlands | Slovenia vs Denmark | Serbia vs England

Its really wild how deep that Balkan dislike goes. I worked with two employees here in the US who were second generation and they had so much irrational hatred for each other they had to be let go.

It is easy to be nationalist and swing your dick from USA. A lot of people on Balkan want to be just left alone and live.
 
I'd actually agree with him, this almost feels like a transitional tournament from England's perspective, I really don't think it's as strong a squad as others seem to think.

You mean transitioning as in turning back to despair once Kane's ankle is done and Walker retires?
 
Oh no, our boy Hojlund is down :(

Edit: Phew, he's ok!
 
shit game. But hoping Rasmus does well. Nice to see Ilic back for Slovenia. Unbelievable talent who has returned from retirement.
 
Sesko and Oblak aside, I'm pretty convinced this Slovenia side is one of those randomly generated national teams on Football Manager that show up when a country doesn't have enough real players to field a full team.
 
Denmark look pretty good so far. Confident start.
 
I would say that he might be right. Goalkeeper, defenders and central midfield are not that good at all. Lot of overrated players. I wouldn't be surprised if England don't go further from this group.
England will do well to qualify from this group. They are masters at beating cannon fodder. It's the quarter-final when they meet one of the top teams they will come unstuck as usual.

A lack of a Kane replacement is the big worry for England in the short/medium term. He’s probably got two more tournaments at top level assuming reasonable luck with injuries, but there’s no obvious up and coming youngster.

I'm not sure I agree. Kane might be washed up in the next tournament. IMO he should really shine in this EURO.
