No hooliganism or drunken rioting in the streets.

Just isn't the same for me.
That's because the English, Dutch & Germans are not there in their numbers.

It would be carnage if they were there. especially as fans from different nations are sitting/standing together.

We even had trouble in our sleepy local town from the English drunkard yobs, one 14yo lad who worked in one of the pubs was almost kicked to death last week as he asked fans to calm down, he is now hospitalised seriously poorly in a coma, rumours from the local community saying he'll be a cabbage if he recovers, poor lad.

Wait for Van Gaal :lol:
71 years old, had been retired for 5 years when his nation came calling.

20 trophies to his name.

Unbeaten in 19 games since returning to management.

Has been battling an aggressive cancer whilst managing Holland.

Can't help but love him :)

He also said this about the USA which is perhaps something there manager could learn from.
Oh and he is Bielsa's hero.

Giroud choked. Dembele set him up on a silver platter.

With a healthy Benzema, France might have the best front four (as a group) ever.

Not a fan of Berhalter as a coach. Unfortunately, I think he's going to be given the next four years, especially since the US won't have to qualify.

Perhaps, you'd know more than I.

But made it easy for Van Gaal and Holland.

Thought the talk was you may go for Marsch?

If we do, then I guess we'll still be vulnerable down the flanks. ;-)

Fantastic touch & control to bring the ball down from Giroud in the build-up for the goal.

He makes Harry Kane look second-rate.
