Going to have a great career. Feels like he's been around forever already.

Any rumours where he's off to?

Haha. I don't mind it being given, no real attempt at playing the ball, but a lot of refs wouldn't & Doku makes the most of it.

They did spot the sneaky Italian feigning injury, still hoping for a VAR penalty, then getting up when he realised they'd scored

I think the defenders been done for pace and uses his forearm to shove him over, when seen side on it's a definite penalty for me, some refs wouldn't give it but they should

I'm not sure that our side of the draw does us any favours watching this

If we got to the final then we'd have played Germany- who actually weren't that good, Ukraine & Czech/ Denmark. Not easy but not scary hard matches.

If Italy got through then they'll have had massively competitive matches against Belgium & Spain- they'll have seen it all.

Bit like fighting 2 journeymen then taking on a fully prepared & in form Tyson Fury

If you're writing Germany off as not that good, you can do the same to Spain too.

24 hours from now we'll be...

(1) reflecting on a humdinger of a first half and watching replays of our two goals
(2) nervous as hell with it 0-0 and us struggling to break down a stubborn Ukraine & demanding Grealish comes on to avoid penalties
(3) wondering if we're gonna blow it with Ukraine 1-0 up after a terrible defensive mixup

I think (2)

All the teams in group F had massively competitive games in the group stages. Where are those teams?

Big difference for England over the likes of Belgium is strength in depth. Anyone think Nacer Chadli would get anywhere near our squad?

People making a lot of the lack of quality in Germany's squad too. It's got world cup winners, champions league winners.

It's like one of the top 4 losing in the cup to a lesser team. One bad result doesn't mean they're not a top side.

Playing quality so regularly will exhaust you. We should be more rested going up against whoever we're scheduled to beat in the final.
