Bilic is the best analyst for this tournament on UK TV.

He's like a drunk guy at a pub with strong opinions, very honest and forthcoming.

The usual draw in the 2nd game of group stages.

Better defensively but on offense there's not enough movement(it's not even close to it) and therefore teams sitting back are easily able to defend it.
Should be a fun game against Northern Ireland who'll play nine guys in their own box. :lol:

they should have eight groups of 3 and have top spots move on to quarters. would turn every game into do or die.

They should go back to the 16 team format and stop with that 3rd place might get you in the knockout stages crap.
The whole tournament has turned into a tactical festival and is insanly boring so far.

once it expands there is no going back, probably goes up 32 within next two tournaments.

Boateng the best CB in the world, right?

If that happens they should do away with the qualifications and give everyone participation trophies for showing up.

He's not as good as Boateng. Boateng has done much more on the big stage(CL, WC etc.)

- Khedira was utter trash (bench him next game)
- Muller was the invisible man (don't start him next game)
- Ozil looked frustrated (give him more support)

Boateng and Hummels were the only good players
Mustafi, Schweinsteiger and Can next game.
