The ONLY Euro 2016 thread

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

Homecomings for teams can be cringesome at the best of times, but I'm going to go slightly against the grain here and say Wales did deserve some sort of recognition for their tournament achievement.. For Wales to reach the last four and go out with suspensions as a factor was an achievement.
The problem with perceived success at a national levels is it spawns new experts.. See Oierland 1988/90/94 etc..

I agree,I think that they have been the best games so far. :barscarf:
wHAt england v iceland was shite england
Particularly shite

The reason they were "Excellent" was because Iceland ( a part time pub team - whose manager is a part-time dentist) beat England whose manager was on £3.8 million a year.

See the faces of the england players when the final whistle went was such fun! :barscarf:
Im not thick bard :shock: i know iceland done well but it was awful to watch as an

Mind you I also heard that Ingerland were having one too - Especially for Wilshere as he survived training and a few minutes on the pitch without doing a Diaby.

Don't have any great affection for Portugal but seriously could not stand the idea of Giroud being convinced (along with Wenger) that he led France to a major title.

Game has started well, few chances at bpoth ends but France seem to be more fluid going forward

That tackle was designed to hurt Ronaldo and even though he is a knob at times, I feel sorry for him. As for France, how come they get to host so many tournaments?

I'm gutted for Ronaldo. Wait, no I'm not. Attention seeking til the last.

Not sure Payet has it in him to 'do' someone tbh.

Poor sportsmanship from the French fans, booing Ronaldo when he was clearly injured. Has killed the game really. Hope Portugal win.
