I think it is a good group for us. Of course we are underdogs and probably end up to the bottom of our group, on the other hand there are four very even teams that will take points from each other, so maybe we have a chance if that happens.MoSe wrote:Finland in Gr.I (lastgroup, with just 5 teams) with TUR & UKR so far

At least we were saved from the horror draws France and Italy from pot 2

Quite interesting group for Finland. Turkey and Ukraine are the worst picks but after that Iceland and Croatia aren't that bad compared to Italy and Belgium for example. Like Finisher said, very equal teams and probably all of them could take points from each other.

I'm as irrationally optimistic of Scotland's chances as I am after every draw.

By the way, how does it work there in UK? Do you also support England and enjoy their success, or is it totally irrelevant national team for you?

Yup, Scotland and Finland have had similar levels of 'success' in recent yearsFinisher1 wrote:I know the feelingthesilkworm wrote:I'm as irrationally optimistic of Scotland's chances as I am after every draw.

I was brought up to want England to lose to anyone, and would say this is how the majority of Scots view England. I've gradually warmed to England in the last decade - I live in London now, my girlfriend and most of my friends are English. Sometime around the 2010 World Cup I realised how ridiculous it is to root against England, and these days I do want to see them do well. In fact, during the recent women's World Cup, I was more disappointed than most of my English friends after their elimination.

I'm not sure what's funnier, English football success or Scots passionately cheering on England.

Manchester United might be challenging for the tile after that performance

Re: The Rounded Keeper - FPL Pub Talk & Matchday Banter 2015 - 16
I agree. Centre backs might be only problem. Depay looked really good and definitely ready for the EPL. Schneiderlin good signing, Schweinsteiger won't be flop if he doesn't get injured and full backs looked okay. I just don't understand why they play Depay in the centre. He's really fast and skillful, of course he would be better winger than Young. I see best midfielders would be Schweinsteiger, Schneiderlin and Herrera.¨owenclass wrote:Manchester United might be challenging for the tile after that performance
In my opinion this looks very great team. LvG seems to be 4-2-3-1 but in my opinion 4-3-3 would be better for that line up. Schneiderlin little bit deeper and Herrera and Schweinsteiger giving great passes and other attacking threat.
Depay-Rooney-Mata
Herrera-Scheinderlin-Bastian
Shaw-Rojo-Smalling-Darmian

Everton 1-0 down against Hearts
From Liverpool Echo - "That’s twice now Martinez has been gesturing to Kevin Mirallas. Must feel the Belgian needs to impose himself on this game more"
Martinez looking for more reasons to not play Mirallas regularly this season?

Lukaku makes it 1-1 from the penalty spot.
Comfortably outscoring Benteke in pre-season and £0.5m cheaper.

Lukaku with another, assisted by Coleman. And he could've had an assist if Mirallas' chip had hit the target.

Chelsea bossing Barcelona in the first half. Hazard looking a must have and Costa continuing to cast doubts in my thoughts of him as a must have.

Southampton sign Steven Caulker on season long loan, after Cardiff in 2014, and QPR last season, is he going for a hat trick of relegations?
Bournemouth I would understand, but the Saints?
