You can see they're lacking in overall skill compared to some, but they have spirit and character in the spade loads... they're a fun team to watch.

Our MD, FD and SD are missing from the office today... Turns out they've decided to fly to Germany last night.

But now there's no senior management in the office to tell us all to go home early so we can watch the match too!

Looks like my idea of hell.

I'm only watching it as the van is packed and the BBQ doesn't need to go on yet.

Denmark will destroy them.

I guess I'm happy to be proved wrong but I have to wonder if they've done any team training for this competition.

They do play well sometimes as they're 5th on the FIFA rankings.

Yes, but should be better. That was frustrating to watch. Kane and Rice should have come off earlier.

Year on year it's the wrong tactics. How can Foden and Bellingham go from the 2 best players on the planet, to complete shite so quickly.

Because they're being given shit instructions on how to play.
