    These international games get in the way of domestic football and the players who go to play them return to their club injured of fatigued. Sometimes they even have bloody friendly games during a season, I couldn't care less what England do. I don't mind internationals games at the end of the season but during is a complete waste of time.

    I agree having friendlies mid season is disrupting the league games, but the Euros are not as long as the World Cup and not seen as being as important as the World Cup. 

    I know it can has created some injury problems, but not many to cause for concern.

    I'd be shocked if we couldn't progress through that group. Except group A ours is the easiest group.

    We should be able to beat Ukraine in the opening game. Traditionally we have good statistics again England and we know english football very well so at least a draw. Not sure how we will do against france but I think another draw. 5 points is enough to get through and the rest have to fight for the second spot.

    Odds are we'll draw to France and beat the other 2.

    Ukraine will finish in the top 2 in that group and the other place in the quarter finals is equally likely to go to any of the others.

    As for Ireland. Wasn't the best draw we could have got but wasn't the worst either. I don't like the order of games. Croatia get to play Spain when they may be already thru. If that turns out to be the case, they'll play Spain's second team which could be the difference in that group. We've played 4 games against Italy and Croatia in the last couple of years and lost none of them. So something very small could be all the difference!

Howdy, Stranger!
