I think it will be more adventurous than the game we've just witnessed.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
Is the England-Scotland game at Wembley too?
Calm down, Gareth.
the biggest problem with the Euros now is that we only lose 8/24 teams after the group stages.
there’s no need for it to be so big. Having these 3rd place teams qualify takes away so much from the group stages.
also makes qualification a joke.
need to reduce the no of teams to 16.
yes.
A very even match without many great chances. England was the best, but not much. A draw had not been wrong.
I really have zero interest in the next 2 games. I might check the last 30 minutes of Netherlands game or something.
Yeah all of England’s group games are at home
Austria - North Macedonia is a game to remember.
Surely at Euro 2033 we will have Gibraltar-Kosovo in the group stage from which all 4 teams will qualify.
It’s at Wembley
Croatia's team is past their cycle, for some reason people expect them to still be at the level they were in the world cup
Something tells me the rest of today's matches will be more entertaining than the early kickoff.
True. As I said before, it was more based on our history against the top teams in tournaments, us missing Maguire, and them having Modric. I fully admit it was my own pessimism more than anything
The Euros used to be a great, pacy, no nonsense tournament, 16 teams, straight to quarters, not a single off game allowed.
That, say, Germany might still be able to progress after coming 3rd behind Portugal and France is just not right.
Besides, year is already crammed with football, at least in the summer I need some fecking time off.
Good points for England. Very dull game though. Croatia look past their expiration date.
it’s stupid. Group of death… but actually all three teams might qualify!
Alright, but they came 2nd in the world cup. Knocked us out. That's what matters.
Exactly. I hate it.it’s stupid. Group of death… but actually all three teams might qualify!
Austria with 21 Bundesliga players.
4 players more than Germany
4 players more than Germany
You're not forced to watch (all) the games if you need some time off, you know.
How the feck can their best players be 5 years older than when we played them 3 years ago?
Like increasing the pack size of cigarettes and telling a smoker, you don't need to smoke all of them you know
Clearly Croatian people age differently.
Austria has nominated more Bundesliga players than Germany
I think it’s more to do with our fan base. After the game ‘it’s coming home’ being played and every single fans being zoomed in on were steaming drunk
. When our fans go to major tournaments that what other nations see from us. We are a nation of piss heads.Their own league is called Bundesliga too.Austria has nominated more Bundesliga players than Germany
I know, but I'm talking about the German Bundesliga.
yeah, but there are only 2 players from the Austrian Bundesliga in our squad, while 21 are playing in Germany. The Germans only have 18 of them.
It's like they are our little cousin.
Amazed that 2010 CL winner Goran Pandev is still playing
Even more amazed that he gave his national team debut 2001.

I mean that was 3 years ago, a lot changes in that time.
Italy weren't even at that World Cup, and look at them now.
Agreed. Some of the posts read like - now, what is the most stupid and controversial thing I can post. Because that way, someone (another half wit) might actually agree with me.
What they completely miss is that Gareth Southgate understands more about the game of football and infinitely more about the players than anyone of us.
The players seem level-headed to me, it's the fans and the media.I think it’s more to do with our fan base. After the game ‘it’s coming home’ being played and every single fans being zoomed in on were steaming drunk
I know right. Who have they even beaten this year in a competitive match?
No idea who Austria beat
Good finish.
best goal of the tournament so far.
Austria ahead. Lainer.
Great pass, greater finish.
Showing to Kane how it's done.
