Joachim Loew sniffing his Crotch on global tv

I have decided that I like Slaven Bilic as a pundit. He speaks sense and has a nice laid back manner. He looks like he’s had a crafty drag on something before the camera is turned on.
that is surely going to be the miss of the tournament. Awful from the polish chap.

How did he miss that?
Almost the best tactical change in football history - we switched to Zoladkowa Gorska Honey Vodka at HTC…

And now Lewandowski is taking all the time in the world for a shot and ends up getting tackled/blocked. Should have at least have led to a shot on target.
Oh. That has to be the foul of the tournament.
Nightmare levels of tension here in Krakow
And the place goes berserk!

so todays games
Italy v Sweden. Italy to win
Czech Republic v Croatia. Croatia to win
Spain v Turkey. Spain to win
Germans looked blunt going forward, but Poland seemed happy to play with 9 behind the ball and go for the counter… frustrating game. Must admit, not a big fan of sides that seem happy to just sit and absorb waiting for the break… get all that about playing to your strengths… but its boring to watch and negative… and you dont improve and broaden your strnegths if you never do anything different…
Strange day yesterday.
Watched the game in a school hall full of 7-11 year old. They created an amazing and unique atmosphere.
Great result.
Then headed off to go for a long walk with a mate, aiming to watch the Germany match in a pub in Romsey.
Weather was shit so we had a couple of beers, ostensibly waiting for the storm to pass.
Long story short, woke up on Romsey station platform having missed the last train and having had an altercation in a pub.
Apparently I was accused of calling someone a cunt.
I’m nearly 100% certain that I didn’t do this. Bletch charm defused the situation and his mate came over to join us and brought a round of Jager bombs with him.
That didn’t mix with the Suicide cider I was drinking and that explains my current low ebb.
Midweek drinking. Don’t do it kids.

‘Cuntgate’ - did he or didn’t he? I’m undecided right now and I’ve known Bletch for a very long time…

I am pretty sure everyone in the pub I was in saw the goal but also missed that 
I’m not normally a negative type after a win but do our “Sotonian’s Pundit Panel” think the old duffer was forced to make the half time changes yesterday in desperation or by cannily engaging his shrewd footballing brain?
It seems he finally employed the out and out attacking game most were clamouring for from the outset one and a half games into the tournament.

I have no doubt that Beltch was dropping c-bombs in front of those 7-11 year olds, particularly when Bale scored. He’s only human.

If Bale hadn’t forced Hodgson’s hand, Kane & Sterling would still be on the pitch even now, running down blind alleys, and giving the ball away with Poor Touch

I am so excited because we have finally stumbled across the idea of putting our strongest team on the pitch.
If we had thought of that in 1970 and stuck with it, things might have been very different.

Rose still played. And as for the keeper…guess we’ll let him off.

There comes a point in every England managers career when he realises that he could actually lose his job. Roy’s came when Bale mugged off Hart.
Fortunately Roy did something positive - and to be honest I still cannot believe that he made a double sub at half time. I am even more astounded that it worked and it wasn’t Milner / Wiltshire

Gareth Bale has now scored the worst two free-kicks in the history of the European Championships.
Wonder strikes?
My arse.
