You bet on them in the first game. Funny that
Internationals September (Nations League + Friendlies)

Learned from my mistake though. I watched tonight as a neutral and it was really poor from the Irish again. Its a real shame, but there's no real defending that tonight.
EDIT: Not that its much comfort, but England were also really poor yesterday.
Strong side from Germany. They want to win nations league!
It wasn't great at all no but I wasn't expecting a huge amount except some signs of the direction the team was taking and hopefully some promising performances.
It's the new manager's first two games. He's implementing a new philosophy with a new formation and while it wasn't a totally new lineup he has brought in new players in so lots of new combinations.
All of this combined with the fact that many of these players haven't had a pre-season and the lack of crowds meant it probably was the worst time to back them for the win
Penalty to Spain already. Fati fouled. Ramos scores just. 1-0.
Should be named Pemos for all the pens he takes and score.
If you watched Iceland vs England you probably slipped into a coma through sheer boredom so I completely understand

Nice shot Gündogan, otherwise we've been a bit shit.
Oof, nice hit
Sane looks good.
0-1
Gundogan

Beautiful header by Ramos. 2-0.
Comical finishing
Ansu Fati is something else. Unreal
Spain playing well, especially through the left with Reguilón-Ansu Fati.Ansu is a constant threat every time he attacks, and now a nice goal
Beautiful finish from Fati. No wonder Barca won't sell him. 3-0.
Fati has been on another level in this match
Fati is an unbelievable talent.
Apparently he’s having an incredible debut. I’ve not seen it yet but Ballague is setting himself on Twitter.
Werner is so bad, it's almost comical how overrated he is by people, that didn't watch more than bis highlight tape on YouTube.
Red Bull system made him look good
How many prem goals do you think he will score this season?
Pretty much. Ukraine is getting murdered on their right hand side by Reguilon and Fati combination.
Wtf is sane doing ? He was through
Depends on how Chelsea will play. Funny thing is that he'll probably get worse the more dominant Chelsea play.
Imho he really only functions in a counter-attacking system.
His first touch, technique and link-up play are just not really good at all.
The best way I can describe him is as a (really) poor man's Aubameyang.
edit (limit is reached): I would say around 15-20 goals, if they play like they did last season. He won't contribute much to the overall game though.

So how many goals do you think he will score for Chelsea, assuming we play as we did (style wise) last season.
Similar to Auba, if Chelsea will create a similar amount of chances compared to last season.
Auba is more clinical with his chances, but Arsenal hadn't that many chances compared to Chelsea. Both aren't the best "footballers", but are incredible good in terms of getting into the right positions for chances.
What do we make of this Spain generation, do they have a shout next year?

He is mate, he really is. He nutmegs people at will, I've had to rewind sky a few times to appreciate things he does. Hi so soeed of thought and decision making is what stands out the most. Unbelievable
It's amazing to hear Löw shout commands in his rusty squeeze box voice
Nice play by Embolo.
I knew that was coming haha
Is he "consulting" his balls today?
1-1
Widmer

its irritating as feck.
He's shouting enlightening stuff like "play good passes". A mastermind as always.
Embolo injured again. Guy just can't catch a break
