European Championship Playoffs

I cant get my head around it.

How Norway, Sweden are not making the play offs but Estonia and Kazakhstan are? If its reliant on the Nations League surely the highest 12 placed teams who have not qualified should make the play offs. How can a nation in League C for example make it over say Norway or Sweden.

France

I hope Portugal get that group with all my heart. They always seem to get easy qualifying and easy group at tournaments.

(This might just be in my head because I’m sick of the Ronaldo show now)
 
To be honest, there's no nation out there that scares me, other than France and even then, I think it could be an evenly matched game.

They have a certain superstar that can do anything at a given moment, but we have some excellent individual players....and we arguably have the current best midfielder in the world.

I think the Euro winners will be out of us and France.

Germany are a mess
Portugal refuse to drop Ronaldo and look worse for it
Spain are without one of their best players.
Belgium just consistently flatter to deceive.

Then the rest are Pot 2 or below.
 
We've got tickets for D2 v D3.

Best case probably Croatia v Netherlands, worst case Albania v Slovenia.

That said, my only previous Euros game was Hungary v Iceland and I loved it..........CLAP!!!........

Agree, between us and France to win it. Think Spain could have a very good tournament even with injuries.
 
Well judging by the recent result of the England U17's, the next couple of tournaments for England might be our best chance of winning something for a while!
 
I think there are a number of teams with puncher's chances against England or France on the day.

However, I have to agree there is no one too scary and France are the obvious competition.
