November 21, 20231 yr Author Play-Offs - One team from each path will qualify. A draw on Thursday will decide which team gets to play Wales, Israel and Bosnia & Herzegovina and which nation will host each final. Path 1 Poland v Estonia Wales v Finland/Ukraine/Iceland Path 2 Israel vs Ukraine/Iceland Bosnia & Herzegovina vs Finland/Ukraine Path 3 Georgia vs Luxembourg Greece vs Kazakhstan You have to favour past winners Greece to win path 3 but any of the other 3 could easily win against them.
November 22, 20231 yr Potential for some tricky groups on paper then looking at the seeds. I actually think Hungary are the team to avoid in Pot 2.
November 22, 20231 yr Geez, didn't think I would say this a few years ago, but I'd take Germany or Belgium easily over the other four teams in Pot A. Good luck to ya if you get any of the others. Imagine any of those four (or any of the six really) paired with Denmark/Hungary, Netherlands/Croatia, Italy. One of the biggest 'groups of death' in history. Praying Iceland are placed in Path B as it's their only shot. Poor Estonia is going to get thumped.

March 26, 20241 yr Heartbreak for Wales, wish they had qualified as Poland rarely do much in tournament football. Great to see Georgia qualify as they always impressed in irelands groups over the past decade and have vastly improved!
March 27, 20241 yr Wales football's top official has confirmed Rob Page will continue as national team manager despite the failure to qualify for the Euro 2024 finals. Football Association of Wales president Steve Williams has moved quickly to remove doubts over Page's future. It comes after the penalty shootout defeat to Poland in Tuesday night's play-off final.
March 27, 20241 yr Sad for Wales, but agree it's great to see Georgia make it in as a debuting country!
May 21, 20241 yr Imagine telling someone after Saka, Rashford and Sancho all missed their pens in the last Euros final that 2 of them wouldn't even make the squad for the next one.
May 21, 20241 yr England have an incredible amount of attacking talent just hope Southgate can get the best out of Foden
May 21, 20241 yr Some brave decisions from Southgate to be fair, not sure the fans can have too many complaints from here. Although left back looks a real problem area for us and our midfield looks really light. Not sure Gallagher/Mainoo are the answer and as much as I like Jones, he's struggled to get back to form post his injury in early 2024. Really happy for Quansah. I don't think he will make the plane, but I think it is the right decision for Southgate to take a look at him. He's still incredibly raw but he's come on leaps and bounds and he's got a super high ceiling if he keeps performing at his current trajectory.
