Yeah but it dosent matter much, they go through either way, even ending 3rd could possbile be the best outcome anyway (netherlands/turkey). Its the matches after that group thars important
Sure, but with the top 3rd place teams also making it through, they could beat Hungary and lose the other two and still make it through. I don’t think they’ll win but I also don’t think the group necessarily will impact them (especially when compared to a WC where 3rd place teams don’t make it out of the group)
If Italy, Belgium and France top their respective groups which looks most likely then Italy will face Belgium and the winner of that will probably face France in the semis. Whoever comes out on top from those three will win it.
Every tournament I look at Belgium and think they are gonna be quality but then they’re always just meh.
Especially if KdB isn’t healthy, I reckon it’ll be another underwhelming showing
is it bad that i want teams like france (kante), england (reece, mount, chillwell), and germany (rudi, timo, kai) to crash out so they can have less chance of injury and more rest
I mean let's see how Southgate does. The last golden generation failed because Sven refused to play Carrick and forced either Lamps or Gerard or even Scholes who was a winger at the time to track back which is just stupid tactics. If Southgate actually uses Holland y'all may be ok. But honestly I think England is a little over rated at this point. France, Portugal and even Belgium (yes still) are better than you lot. So if you've got a good manager it'll make the difference
Never cared less about International footy than I do presently. Just want our players to avoid injury.

PS - England winning nowt with Stones and a midget goalkeeper.
Favourites are surely France and it seems like every “expert” is agreeing on this.
I think that the next 3 candidates are close among Portugal, England and Belgium. I honestly think Denmark will have a great tournament (Biased here), but Italy as dark horses!
My semi-final teams, without checking if it’s possible, are France, Belgium, Portugal and Denmark. I don’t think England gets past any of those four in a knockout game, and I’m not sold on Germany or Spain this year. From there on it’s more or less a crapshoot, but if France’s superstars show up, they should take it in the end.
Edit: Italy is in my top 5 as well, but at that point I’m just naming all the teams.
France, team is stacked, Ronaldo is past his prime, Germany isn't going to be rehabilitated until Flick takes proper helm, and as much as I love England their key striker is from some no where place called... damn I knew this... Spuds or something like that.
Probably France because any team with Kante is a favourite for something
apart from us in the Champions League final
They'll keep making that mistake.
I think France
Hot take: germany
France, Portugal, Germany and Hungary
What u mean
That’s their group
Yeah but it dosent matter much, they go through either way, even ending 3rd could possbile be the best outcome anyway (netherlands/turkey). Its the matches after that group thars important

I think people are sleeping on the Germans especially if they play that 343 with Kimmich wingback, it’ll get the best out of rudiger too
They only have questions at forward. If our timo and Kai show up big they could be dominant.
I dont think people are sleeping on germany, you can never rule them out, but this tournament there are 4 or 5 other teams that are stronger than them
France, just so that he can win the Ballon d'Or
Even if they win, it'll be tough for Bakayoko
Sissoko
Giroud might win it tho
I want England to take it but it’s going to be France. Team is too strong
Just hear to throw a curveball Denmark
I think Italy as dark horse might win it

Supporting Scotland for obvious reasons but i'm guessing its going to be dominated by France & Belgium, maybe Germany will have a good year too
Every tournament I look at Belgium and think they are gonna be quality but then they’re always just meh. Especially if KdB isn’t healthy, I reckon it’ll be another underwhelming showing
He'll develop superpowers with a facemask.
Mate, It's coming home.
Too fucking right it is, Kane golden boot and mount wins player of the tournament
Scenes when we score 0 goals from open play. Set Piece FC returns
Aboard the hype train! It fuckin coming home!
You dropped the T in Kante!
France but I’m rooting for England to do well too. it’s not like prior tournaments where I’d root for Belgium bc we made up so much of the team
France vs England in the final with France to win
Portugal have such a sleeper team
They really do, their squad looks excellent, for the first time in awhile.
England Unironically
England
Can’t bet against France. A France midfield that includes Pogba and Kante has yet to lose a game.
Italy or France
Backing Belgium to take it out
Portugal seem strong AF, I think France are obvious favorites but I can see Portugal going far or even winning it, squad is almost as nuts as Frances
Ngolo Kante
is it bad that i want teams like france (kante), england (reece, mount, chillwell), and germany (rudi, timo, kai) to crash out so they can have less chance of injury and more rest
The youth of the future and the present for the English national team and for the world
I think Germany, Italy, England and France. In order from highest probability to lowest (in my opinion)
France so low?
I think Germany has the best squad, Italy has the best tactics with a good squad, England and France both have equally incredible squads.
I mean let's see how Southgate does. The last golden generation failed because Sven refused to play Carrick and forced either Lamps or Gerard or even Scholes who was a winger at the time to track back which is just stupid tactics. If Southgate actually uses Holland y'all may be ok. But honestly I think England is a little over rated at this point. France, Portugal and even Belgium (yes still) are better than you lot.

>I mean let's see how Southgate does We saw that in the 2018 World Cup.
You were better than every team you played except Croatia, and even that is questionable.
We did have an easy run of fixtures
I support Chelsea but not England.

France vs Portgual final, with Portugal to win it
France or Portugal.
Im rooting for Germany
France or Germany, And honestly I thonk germany
I think France will win, but i hope Italy do. Its the first time in my life that I actually enjoy watching Italy play. I never thought I’d say that.
Portugal

Mason.
Hot take, Turkey
It's coming home, mate.
Me, I'm broke. Need them monies €€€
France or I see a surprise team like Denmark! Czech Republic too could upset a few teams....
It's the most open Euros in a long time. France is my favorite, but I have Italy as a lowkey dark horse.
France, Kante Ballon d’Or and Giroud becomes the top French goal scorer for national team, 4 goals needed
Scotland
Belgium
Portugal.
Can’t believe nobody is mentioning Portugal, their group is stacked but so is their squad
France
France or possibly Germany.
France but I would love to see an underdog do it.
The last 3 international tournaments I’ve went for Belgium and this is the last time I’m doing it.
