    To be fair to morata, even though he was a heartless pansy and misses loads of sitters, he got more in his first season since duane dibley secured his retirement fund for you boys.

    Also thought that was an easy pen to give to the spanish. The bloke just comes and steps right on the boys ankle. Was a stupid challenge.

    Glad the spanish are doing **** though, probably the most boring team ever. This is how they have played since they won their trophies, pass pass pass no incision.

    He looked like a fish out of water in the PL, but to be fair he decent for Real before the Chavs splashed £60m on him. He just bombed in England. Not sure how his career has gone since, but he seems like a bit of a journeyman.

    Hes a confidence player and he can easily be roughed up. To be honest im surprised he put himself about a bit and held the ball up quite well. Hes deceptively quick (but not with the ball) and has great movement but his finishing is shabby and when things go a little bit wrong, you can see him lose heart and he goes to ****.

    Yeah he went to Atletico and I think that's his second spell at Juve ?

    Edit : just checked and he had a decent season for Juve scoring 20 goals <ok>

    We are in a far better position than Spain.

    That win against Croatia is looking crucial now.

    will be interesting to see where we end up in our group though, as the winners will play either France, Portugal or Germany depending on where they finish.

    I think that’s the case anyway ?

    Yeah if we win the group we play runner up in that group at Wembley. If we finish runner up then we play the runner up in group E in Copenhagen.

    Maybe Southgate wasn't being as daft as so many thought. To end up second, will be an easier tie, we are certainly capable of dealing with Spain. Wouldn't fancy our chances so much against France or Germany. I'd only fancy playing Portugal to watch Ronaldo cry.

    It feels like the best result for us against the Czech republic will be a draw...
