Your dark horse for the Euro's. Pic related
>>66368620
Blind patriotism is already a category, what's your real dark horse?
>>66368633
No I'm seriously. I feel that the decline in international football worldwide over the last 10-20 years has been so rapid that there are no great teams anymore. Honestly feel like ireland could make the last 8 easy
>>66368633
Austria, nobody expects them
>>66368696
Only one good player
Honestly I feel like turkey is going higher than most people expect
>>66368620
>dark horses
>none of them are dark
>>66368725
Nah, they have a solid first 11. And I thought Astronautovic was rated these days.
Norn Iron actually.
Did well in qualifying, even if it wasn't a great group.
>>66368725
>Alaba
>Arnautovic
>Junuzovic
>Dragovic
>Fuchs
>Janko when he gets proper service
>only one good player
>>66369320
only good player is Alaba
>>66369354

>>66369320
Wimmer has been good lately. Wonder if he will play.
>>66369049
da meaning
>>66369320
>Alabin & the Dippers
>>66369412
Yeah, I realised after posting that I'd forgotten him. Dragovic-Wimmer would be a solid CB pairing.
>>66369354
Oh fuck off. Arnautovic is fucking great.
France. Can't get much darker than that.
Is "dark horse" an Irish idiom meaning cannon fodder?
>>66369595
Belgium's strikers are 100% Congo
Origi - Benteke - Lukaku - Batshuayi
>>66368695
their best attribute is determination desu most of the squad is total shit in terms of ability
they are more cohesive than most international teams though i would say
>>66369453
Dragovic will always play, he's an absolutely brilliant man-oriented defender and likes to move into the midfield from time to time. The main question is who will play alongside him.
During the qualification his go-to partner was Hinteregger, famous for his incisive passing, love of hunting and causing 2 own goals in his first 8 games for Gladbach.
Then you've got Prödl, who is a tall lad without any ball-playing skill whatsoever.
And then there is Wimmer who hasn't even played one entire game for the nt.
I'm really looking forward to the friendlies, just to see the CB pairings that Koller comes up with.

That one against >Schalke was comedy gold. Honestly one of the most >Schalke goals I've seen in a while.

pathetic nigger mercenaries.
hope the muslims get ye again
Realistically England or Italy t b h
>>66368620
>ten men behind the ball
>hoof it up to Shane Long
>this shit actually works against the world champions
Ireland confirmed for dark horse desu.
>>66368620
Who is that fucking guy in between John Walters and Randolph?
His fucking neck looks insane
but they're white
>>66369516
t. Marko Arnautovic
>>66369807
He's currently in Austria, signing autographs and making TV adverts, it's probably his brother or something.
Arnautovic was fucking shite at Werder, how can he be good now that he plays against superior defenders in a superior league?
>>66369981
He's stopped acting like a cunt. At least most of the time.
>>66369981
This >>66370010. He was mediocre for most of last season but Hughes sorted him out.
Russia will place 2nd. Cap this
Iceland
Austria or Wales.
>>66368620
Not with O'Neill in charge they won't. Shite hoofball cloggers.
>>66369981
He wasn't shit, he was horrendously inconsistent. Hughes and Koller simply man-managed him so much that he turned into a somewhat dependable footballer, instead of the nutcase he was at Werder.
To be honest, Werder is also a pretty badly run club that likes to make one particular player a scapegoat for everything wrong with the club.
>>66368725
You are fucking retarded. Austria are much better than Ireland right now.
>>66369595
scared to meet our BBC midfield
oh wait...
Is Ireland the Purdue athletics of Europe?
That's fine, france is the black bulls of the tourney, we all now bull > horse
>>66368620
>dark horse
>dark
Definitely france.
Poland is the real dark horse for this Euro
>>66369981
He's still not great. Very inconsistent, only had a couple good games
Netherlands
>>66370703
>>66370572
>>66370214

>>66369595
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH I get it. "DARK" Horse means black people and some of the french players are dark AAHAHHAHAAHAHAHA OMG SP!!!
>>66368696
This. They seem to be a motivated team with one world class player and many decent ones.
>>66371056
> some
wew lad, you are trying too hard.
Poland are dark horses.
>>66370866
Trust me, we will be embarrassed in the group. Like Lewandowski is legit bad for poland. His finishing tanks, he holds the ball for 2-3 touches too long, his passes are inaccurate. We suck.
>>66371513
You guys had the most potent attack of the qualification, you can't be that bad.
Croatia tbqh
Has to be England. Everyone thinks we're shit. NOW IS THE TIME TO STRIKE
>>66371773
aye, this lad gets it
>>66371796
Says England at every major tourney
>>66371796
No people think you have more of a chance then ever retard
>tfw just received my final exams schedule
>tfw won't have to miss any Belgium games
It's an unexpected and very good feel tbH
>>66368620
>>66368695
mate, you're in a group with Belgium, Sweden and Italy, you won't make it out of the group stage
>>66371513
>>66371687
Tbqh, I believe that Arek Milik will outscore Lewandowski
THIS ONES FOR BILL
>haven't lost in 12 games
>won 9 while only conceding 6 goals
>always perform well in tournaments
Finally figured out what the starting 11 might look like at the euros for Wales
>>66372411
I kinda want turkey to donwell because
A) Serb butthurt is brilliant
B) I had a turkish flatmate at uni who I owe for multiple taxi rides
>>66372549
if we perform well, I don't think it'll be just Serbs who are butthurt.
>>66372642
The Czech Republic will be as well because of Euro 2008
>>66372711
Both Croatia and CR whom we've fucked over in Euro 2008 are in our group, should be fun.
>>66372411
they're doing well but to be fair you were playing Sweden without Zlaten, Czech and the worst Netherlands team in decades
>>66372775
i'm already butthurt
>>66368620
idk all teams are average apart from germany. I see only france challenging them in 3-4 years.

>>66372823
To be fair, we didn't have Çalhanoğlu today who is very important to the team. The Austrian game should be the big test before the tournament
>>66372906
So is Ivan Bebek apparently
>>66371056
>Unknown
Is this an ayylien flag?
>no one mentioning ice land
Their meme is trending upward atm. Expect them to have a big summer.
>>66372146
Mate, we're going to make sure this is the second time Belgium get BTFO this year.
Austria, Poland, Wales, Iceland
>>66372411
Basically this, Turkey will win the yuro easily.
Merkel also make sure of that in appreciation for taking the refugees.
Lifelong turkish here

Prepare anuses lads
>>66372549
I want Turkey to perform well because we will actually beat them in later stages. And because I like Turkish football in general
>>66372997
How well would any of us do with him as coach?
Chris Brunt is injured and he's like their best player. They'll do shit.
>>66379735
>because we will actually beat them in later stages
>implying you're getting to any later stage
