Agree he was a bit of a knob.

I mean as an English person i will admit sometimes the pundits do go over the top but most of the time they are honest whether it's a good performance or bad performance but as for Rio he takes the biscuit didn't realise he was like that until i listened to him i mean treating Italy like an easy team a team they is unbeaten in 33 games didn't concede a goal for 2 years until dropping one against Spain i mean it ain't San Marino they are playing.

San Marino they aren't mate for sure. He probably would make San Marino look good!!

But I think their record overall is only bettered by Germany - or even ours or Spain's. I do fear our clean sheet record comes to an end tonight. But I think we would have to go some to batter Denmark I think we would be that more tired than Italy, they have the extra day to recover than us if we don't go to penalties
then i 'd out recovery is going to be about the same.

It's astonishing now to realise how many games Germany won under Low - 124.

For Southgate to break that stat, that would likely take him well beyond Qatar and the next Nations League and Euros and next World Cup to even reach that or get close. I don't think we will have a better chance than now to win a major tournament and I would be stunned if Southgate changed his mind and stepped down if England ddin't win tonight. It would take England a fair time to find a coach of Lows quality and experience.

Incidentally how many different nations (discounting multiple games wirth each team) have England played as a whole? I reckon it must be up to at least 70-75?

no matter who supports who, or whatever the result, I just want to see a good clean game tonight, regardless. One that both sets of fans can enjoy & make it a great occasion, and England fans to behave before, during, and after the match.

Why are we singing 'Coming Home'. We haven't won the thing before.

The official number of England opponents is 96, but the real number has to be less than that. For example, CIS was really the USSR under a different name. I think 89 is probably the best answer, but only if you regard Germany as a different country to West Germany.

Both goalkeepers tonight made their senior football debut for ……. Darlington

^That's a gpod starting point!!!

England have kept 5 clean sheets in this tournament so far. No country has ever kept 6 clean sheets in a tournament.

The match will be drawn 2-2 and go to extra time and Denmark win on penalties. What are the odds?

Yeah that's the one thanks 7 stars.
