In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran are here to talk about a frustrating 2 points dropped at Crystal Palace. They then discuss the regeneration of Old Trafford. Finally, Nik is joined by special guest Michael Statham from the Football Oranje podcast - who gives us a more in depth look at our EL opposition FC Twente, and then runs through the (many) Dutch connections currently at United.

Interesting to see if Portugal can put in a dominant performance. What's the expected line up?
After a day full of upsets I'm just hoping Portugal can get over the line with some nice Cancelo and Bruno fantasy points. 
Cristiano Ronaldo
awhh just the 2 games today 
Curious to see how Turkey get on today.
Some good young players at the moment in the likes of Guler and Yildiz with the experience of Calhanoglu in support who has just had a really good season for Inter.
They have disappointed in the last few tournaments but Montella seems to be doing a good job getting the most out of the team in qualifying, so let’s see if that translates to the actual tournament.

Bummerawhh just the 2 games today
The early game will probably have a meh atmosphere. Half empty stands with mostly Georgian fans I suspect
It will be a sea of Turkish red in Dortmund.

Just saw the white text
I suspect it could be the most fun game of the opening around. Some crazy 3-2 to either side.
Imagine if Greece had won that shoot-out. It'd have been Turkey-Greece and would probably set off a new World War
Turkey's opponents this Euros won't know what'll hit them atmosphere wise, they might as well just play all their games in Istanbul
Still rooting for Georgia, first international tournament for them, great to see!

No 2pm game. I feel sick.
True, that should be some atmosphere. The only country where you can be sure they have tens of thousands of people living in each city where they play and don't need to travel to get there.Turkey's opponents this Euros won't know what'll hit them atmosphere wise, they might as well just play all their games in Istanbul

Have now also updated group thread OPs. Let me know if people would like anymore info in them.
Will there be no more early games? Or is it just today?
Next stage of group games will but don't think there will be from then on.
Croats too, but not on the same level as Turkish people
should be on the bench.
I think the opening game is the reason there are only 2 games today .
Id imagine matchday 2. will be 3 games a day for 4 days .

Feel the same way.
Just today, because the opening match was the only one on its day. Next matchday will be four days with three games each, but those will be the last early games
Getting over the no 2pm game by watching the Denmark vs Slovenia game I missed.
Still can't make my mind up on Portugal . Don't know wether they will win 4-0 or just edge it .
Strangely really looking forward to Turkiye vs Georgia, and Portugal as well. No 3pm game this early into the tournament is disgusting though.
Did they provide a reasonable explanation as to why?
Think Portugal will give a strong performance with a 4-0 win
Ye doesn’t make sense. Probably because it’s the last group to play. But they should have done this group and then 1 game from the first group aswell.
Have fond memories of Turkey in 2002 and 2008. They're good value for fun if they actually turn up.
I thought I was a little weird for being upset that there isn't an early match. Apparently I'm in good company.
Not to mention the next World Cup is in the USA, Canada and Mexico, so no early KOs either for us Europeans.
Next Euros in England though
Yeah that totally sucks. Especially since I believe the Dutch NT will be quite nice in two years.Not to mention the next World Cup is in the USA, Canada and Mexico, so no early KOs either for us Europeans.

Aren't you worried about age catching up with Weghorst?
I would be worse if it was Turkey vs Armenia
We have requested the FIFA to allow one player to use one of those electrical carts for the elderly in 2026.
Yup... I should have gone into the office today. Have to go in on Thursday and somehow escape by 4pm.
SJR would fire me instantly
Or Armenia - Azerbaijan. High chance couple of players survive the game and the stadium is not entirely burned down
Fancy turkey to beat Georgia but I’m looking forward to watching that Napoli winger for Georgia. He’ll be hoping to put on a show to push through a big move this summer
Asian derby in the Euros today.
Tomorrow until Saturday. Last 2AM game Georgie v Czech.
The way it's raining in Dortmund the game will either be a shit show or canceled.
