    So the draw is on Friday.. Quarter finals is 2 legs ? Does anyone know for sure ? Also do we get home field advantage since we won 1st in our group ? I hope we draw Italy or France I want a good competition, we haven’t played Italy since 2018 nations league games.. Always a dog fight.. Same with France maybe we get revenge for getting knocked in penalties in euro 2024..

    Pote needs to see the pitch, it blows my mind this fraud is slowly becoming more of a football terrorist than santos was.. At least we won 2 trophies with Nando! In a way I miss seeing him on the sideline having agonias and lighting up a cig right after the final whistle LOL

    Oh wow, what a novel idea. Why doesn’t everyone simply play like the best national team in the world or the 4 best clubs in the world?

    Stat padding is demanding to play 90 minutes in an irrelevant game and forcing every play to go through you even while offering nothing in return. Bruno doesn’t do that. He has been shit no doubt though. But it is hard to take you guys seriously when you continuously try to praise Felix because he does a pretty flick or some other useless, cute little move that passes the famous “eye test” and then turn around and shit talk Bruno because he tried a through ball. Again, Bruno has been shit for both club and country, but there is not a single manager in the world that would take Felix over him.

    Zero chance this guy gets fired. If he survived that fiasco of a euro without even a rumour of getting fired, he’s here for as long as he wants to be.

    I don’t really understand what he’s trying to do out there. Different formation every game, and only plying premier league or Saudi boys. It’s embarrassing. But ronnie almost 1000 goals yeww

    Yes it's two legs, and they can only draw one of Italy/Netherlands/Denmark.

    That is the problem. This team has ZERO chemistry.. Forever... We need pairings, we need chemistry with our attackers, midfield and defenders... It seems every game they are switching things up and just throwing out random lines and formations.. This team is absolutely begging for an IDENTITY... If we developed an identity like in 2006, 2016... This squad would be lethal.. They are already this most talented we have ever seen, 2019-present is our golden generation and we haven't established an actual identity... They have scary potential and that is what sets me off.. These guys could be winning World Cup and more Euros if they actually locked in..

    Bro the FPF is Jorge Mendes will gimp show. He gets Proença, Martinez , and all those cuckold gimps in the FPF with their ball gags and drags them around and their hands and knees and tells them all where to go, who to call up, and who to play.

    As long as he is running shit this NT will continue to be a fucking joke. Do yourself a favor and don't bother. Pretend they're like the Maple Leafs and just act like they don't exist.

    It replaced the pointless friendly matches.. Nations league is becoming more popular since we won the inaugural tournament in 2019.. I’d much rather this tournament where we are sharpening our skills and playing against the best of Europe than friendly games that don’t even count.. To me it’s the Mini Euro..

    Nah its just pointless friendlies, except more games now. Just an excuse to make more money. Like expanding the world cup and euro to include weak teams who have no business being in there. National team games used to feel a lot more special when they weren't happening every couple of weeks. Disrupts club games too. Hard to argue with rich people getting richer though

    Yeah, I agree. That's why he's one of my favourite players. Can still try hard and play like shit though.
