Yes yes I know soccer is ghey and all that. So what say you my Futbol loving friends. I'm actively rooting against Turkey because of the match-fixing cover-up so in addition to any team that plays Turkey I'm pulling for the Cymru (who doesn't love a good underdog) and Italy (because of my brother in law and also to piss RD off  It would be priceless to see the Italians lift the cup in France! Degager Les Bleus! |

Pulling for Italy? Finally out of the closet I see, congrats.
Italy just took a big blow (no pun this time) with Verrati who is out for the Euro. Don't know if you've seen any PSG games, but you'd love this kid. The next Pirlo. His loss is a sort of double whammy because Thiago Motta is abysmally bad when he's not with him.
As for us, I'll just take whatever comes as long as we're not shaming ourselves (see Benzema sextape blackmailing his teammate scandal). We're going without Benzema which is good IMO. Attack and midfield we're pretty good, back 4 are bad.
Wouldn't mind Belgium, they've got a good young team.

I've really been out of it this year. It's been really bad for Galatasaray so I've just shut the soccer part of my life down. I mean I just heard leicester won the Premiership I didn't even know they were in the running. Belgium is just a malnourished adoptee from the third world somewhere of its gay parents; France and Holland. So no wonder you're pulling for it. Whenever everyone agrees that the Azurri will bomb they surprise everyone (usually by boring everyone to death) see 2006. But I would really love to see Wales make a run for it. Or the Irish too. That would be fun with all the drunken fights breaking out every twenty minutes. |

Not rooting for your own country.
Rooting for a country you've despised for years
You're more French than you think.

In any case, I hope it's not Spain or Germany.
Fuck them.

Turk...having a tv in the delivery room was a primative practice. But I'm pretty sure you can discreetly stream the matches on a decent smartphone or tablet.
Secondly...when it comes to Der Mannschaft it's pretty clear that their shit is ice cream and everyone else wants two scoops.
Do I get to dust off the old 1/10 formation for this event?

French 23 are in:
GK : Hugo Lloris, Steve Mandanda, Benoît Costil
Defenders : Raphael Varane, Laurent Koscielny, Eliaquim Mangala, Jérémy Mathieu, Patrice Evra, Bacary Sagna, Christophe Jallet, Lucas Digne
Midfielders : Paul Pogba, Blaise Matuidi, Lassana Diarra, N’Golo Kanté, Yohan Cabaye, Moussa Sissoko
Strikers : Antoine Griezmann, Dimitri Payet, Anthony Martial, Kingsley Coman, Olivier Giroud, André-Pierre Gignac
If we adapt to life without Benzema, we could be really dangerous up front. The last 2 friendlies tend to show that guys had more liberty instead of systematically looking for Benzema. The attack seemed more balanced. Koman and Martial have been used as subs lately and just dynamite everything.
Defense will be a concern, especially set pieces.
