Whats the deal with the eagle thing? Read the article on the BBC and it says its the symbol on the Albanian flag?

They both come from Albanian families i read earlier , the Serbian fans had been singing about Kosovo apparently which obv backfired on them

But how can replicating the sign of a well known bird on a legitamate countries flag be punished as a political gesture just because the have grief with them. PC shite to me

Its a countries national flag though. The st georges cross or saltire has never been deemed political because its simply not

I know it's stupid as fuck, and I know virtually nothing of the actual war, but surely Swiss people having an Albanian flag on their boots and doing a gesture of it's flag due to the war which I'm guessing was political that happened is kinda political?

It was defo political but it was still a legitamate flag of a country who participated in the qualifiers and one of those ones where if you were offended then fuck off n die.

I didn't even realise it was in the box until now. I assumed it was outside the box. I would have had the money spent until it was pointed out it was outside.

[ForeverAndEver 71,453]

England - 1, and BTTS in the other two are my tips to avoid tomorrow

[TMB 14,167]

Mitrovic was brilliant against Switzerland.  He's so strong and good in the air the opposition CBs couldn't cope.  Watching two of them surround him and drag him down was hilarious.

I had checked it straight away as I had on a goal from outside the box and a headed goal

Mitrovic is really entertaining to watch, guys a fucking nutter, he bullies defenders for fun and always plays on the edge. Not bad technically either.

Fuck I've got Toni Kroos as one of my bets for player of the tournament !! 

I suppose that game could have went worse for us ? Reus goal and Kroos screamer.

Got Rashford to get 2 shots on target thinking he’d get a start ?

He'll be on on 70 mins and still achieve it. His pace against their tired defence.

only reason he's not starting is to get one over the press for leaking the team where Rashford replaced sterling
