As it now appears common for players to move sponsors drinks at a press conference. Think 3 players have done it now.

All I want to see is one crack one open and down it !

Thing I didn’t grasp with the Pogba one is the story puts it down to him being a devout Muslim, but the drink he moves is an alcohol-free beer (I should know, I’m partial to one myself!).

I think Italy will be Wales because they simply have more quality but there's not denying Wales will give it a good go which makes them a great team to watch.

Who wants tippy tappy nick a goal and sit back bollocks from Spain? Give me end to end stuff all day long

Bit wales barely have the Swiss a game and snuck a draw out of it. Italy just brushed the Swiss aside with ease. I don’t see how that means wales will give Italy a game.

How good was the VAR check there. Just had a quick look and said he's not obviously off so let it stand, no dicking about with lines for 5 minutes.

This entire tournament is putting the PL’s use of VAR to shame.

Matterface with the awful scripted line there. “A goal that will be remembered forever” as if they’re some minnows in their first tournament

I don't know if its me getting older and more miserable but commentators talk so much shit nowadays. Full of script and cliche hoping they will be a soundbite forever.

FIFA's ranking system is not really that good in terms of accuracy. It is very arbitrary.

We all know the rankings are a joke anyway. But even “on paper” Belgium aren’t that great. KDB is the only potentially world class player and he doesn’t get you goals.

They do have plenty of top class players still, won't say world class as I see Evo lurking in the thread. But I do think perhaps their chance passed last time around. Hazard at his best was up there with the best in the world. Clearly not the case anymore.

Lukaku is world class. Despite drawing Belgium in the sweepstake, they really aren’t on the same level as they were in 2018.

Admittedly, I thought the Eriksen incident would deflate the Denmark team as it did against Finland. Credit to them, they’ve been up for it and playing really well!

See I think there are quite a few ahead of Lukaku in European football. Quality player yes, but not amongst the very best for me.

Out of curiosity, what out and out strikers would you put ahead of him?

Is there a definitive list of Euro 2021 players who have played for Cov anywhere?

Manager: Page

Henderson
Van Arnholt
Schmeichel

Is that the lot?

Hazard is definitely world class. Maybe not on good form at the moment but definitely world class.

Of course deBruyne gets you goals, either by scoring or creating. You say he is only potentially world class? Crazy

Surely by rights the keeper should be sent off for raising his hand?
