Anyone else bored by this tournament so far?
It's just not been competitive.
All favourites won and other than Switzerland they've won easily so far.
Italy back on terms within 10 mins, ahead on 15 and now on cruise control.

Has everyone stopped trading the summer leagues while the euros and copa America is on? I’ve just noticed some of the summer leagues form has gone bad. An example today Utsiktens v Varbergs BoIS, H2H the away team had never beaten the home team, in fact the away team hadn’t won all season. In addition its 4th playing 14th as well. This is one example but there have been a few freak results like this. I cant imagine any of the Swedish league players are playing in the euros but perhaps its having an effect? Anyone else trading the summer leagues and noticing a dip in form?

Thought someone said Spain didn't have alot up top
Youngest ever to provide an assist. 16yrs old and he's already worth close to £70m apparently
-
Over 1.5 goals in the Hungary v Switzerland match was 1.52 pre kick-off. Nice price that
-
@Arran-Shackell Spain v Croatia came up in my over 1.5 list.
-
@Shannon-Townsend Yep, value is value. 1 corner short but I'd take it again and again with the boosted price!
-
@Alex-Rule I saw this as well and think it should be easy money but sadly I'm stake restricted to £1 on the sports book... Still did it, every £1 counts and all that.
-
Interesting to see some of the euro games turn up in my filters
Germany and Scotland have already played 3 games apparently. Where has this data come from?
-
@Akiva-Anderson Yep saw this - captains only allowed to speak to ref. Hopefully its enforced. But it's the rules in the prem I think and you don't really see as many bookings as you should?
-
Excited for tonight and the start of the Euros. I just want to see lots of goals.
There could well be a ton of yellow cards. Apparently, the only player allowed to speak to the referee are the captains
-
@Wayne-Thomas 100% Spain are solid but sometimes they take a while to get going!

@Ryan said in *****New Football Thread*****:
@Wayne-Thomas That's a hell of a price on both Portugal and Croatia, both are teams when they get it right they can play tournament football and usually have a good camp of players as well.
Absolutely. Croatia are a big price beacuse they have Spain and Italy but they won't mind that. In fact, it plays to their strengths to be the underdog. It's an interesting group for sure.

I layed England. I don't mind if they lose!
Hard to look past France.
Agree with Portugal being a good price, as are Spain, though the Spanish lack a goal scorer and I think they can be vulnerable from set pieces
-
@Martin Portugal definitely look strong and are my pick. Backed them at 9.2 a week ago and they're in to 8 already. In terms of outsiders who look good for trading, I like the look of Hungary. Strong qualification and the group isn't the toughest. Backed at 150 last week and into 120 now.
Croatia are also tempting at 46. Another good tournament team and that group is very open. Fancy Albania to ruffle some feathers in there too. They topped their group ahead of the Czech Republic and Poland.
England's odds are crazy! Could have layed them at 4.5 a few weeks back but agree with Stephen, I don't want to have to hope they lose. Southgate knows how to play tournament football though and we have some game changing players. It's hard to be objective with England I think, so I always steer clear.
-
@Stephen-Hancox I got Portugal in my family sweepstake so would not mind seeing them make a deep run!
-
@Martin I think England are way too short. I don't want to lay them though and keep hoping we lose. So I'll back Portugal who I think have an impressive squad. Also Belgium still have good players, if their new manager can make a difference then 22 to back seems big to me.
