Another for Holland. 0-4.
Only just realised Reus was playing for Germany.
3 assists and a goal for De Bruyne, Pogba is gonna have to step it up a bit for this balon dor and player of the year bollocks some people were predicting.
Gnabry finishes off NI.
NI have played germany mostly even for 75 minutes, even had 3 huge chances
Too bad games last 90 and the first 15 of the second half were brutal
Gnabry with the 2-0, motm performance for him in the second half.

Gnabry somehow grabs another one. 9 in 10 from him, impressive numbers.
Gnabry... that the fella that used to play for Arsenal?
Predictably shit and boring match from Poland ending with a 0-0. Slovenia won their game so I think they're like 2 points off us now, time to shit our pants.
That's him.
De Bruyne 3 assists and 1 goal.
Lukaku 1 goal and 1 assist.
Back three was also very good.

Real shame Sané isn't there to partner up with Gnabry, we might look a lot less mediocre with both of them in the team.
My boy Berghuis was terrible 
boring win in the end. Pointless opponent really. You're 3-0 behind, try something.

Seesh. Decent win but could've been worse.
One thing, Neuer is fecking amazing at passing from the back. I have no idea what Loew is concocting with his crazy passing from the back obsession as if he's blessed with Beckenbauer and Koeman at the back, but Neuer is constantly saving the defender's arses because they can't find space to pass and have to give the ball back to him. I really want to see how many passes Neuer played because I'm any other goalkeeper (maybe even Ederson and Ter Stegen) would've shit his pants when given the ball in the situations he was given in. Loew needs to stop this shit right away.
On the game, it's been typical of Germany this whole fecking year. A few steps forward and then a shite performance back, people are forgetting we've already won 4 games out of 5 and are done with our most difficult matches. NI were fantastic in their pressing and I can easily see them taking some points from Holland.

Germany and the Netherlands are now probably on their way to the Euro finals.
But Northern Ireland have played very well.
Russia have finally scored against Kazakhstan and that means Belgium & Russia are qualified for the Euros.

Another interesting group now
It makes qualifying a bit harder although we'll probably do it.
Sick of them saying it was a penalty on McNair. Clear dive and second yellow card. The commentary was so biased I wanted Germany to thrash them just to shut them up!
NI had a good first half but Germany was all over them in the second. Aside from a few counter attacks they were well on top.
Was frozen out from Arsenal after he had a big knee injury. Loaned, youth team etc. - went to the Olympics for Germany as the German teams weren't keen to let to much of their own players go. Played very well there and was sold to Bremen (who already had an agreement with Bayern for the next year). Played a great year in Bremen - than transfered to Bayern but had the wish to get loaned to Hoffenheim for a season. Played a great season at Hoffenheim and was "player of last season" in Munich.
With Gnabry and Coman Bayern already has two great Ribery and Robben replacement. And both are still very young.
Fair play to him. Arsenal must be gutted.
Wouldn't call them 'great'. Still very inconsistent and don't see them having the potential to reach heights similar to Ribery or Robben, that was why Bayern were desperate to get either Sane or Hudson-Odoi. Don't think Gnabry will be more than a squad player in the future, if he remains an important first team player I pray for Bayern's future.
In the second half of last season he had an xG+xA90 of 0,99 and an xGChain of 1,49. With good chance conversion that would have been a direct goal or assist every match and the participation on the direct way to goal in every second match. The triangle on the right with Gnabry, Kimmich and Müller worked different but was on an as good track as the old triangle with Robben, Lahm and Müller. Coman is a different story as he has a different kind of dribbling.
The problem with Gnabry and Coman is their injury history - Bayern needs 3 of that kind.
When your opponent parks the bus. And another. And another.
Kevin de Bruyne is a absolute joy to watch and it's criminal he's a City player.
Who is this Eran Zahavi guy for Isreal who just keeps scoring for fun? 9 goals in 6 games right now. Looks like he had a couple years in Palermo where he struggled, but other than that, his career is full of nothing but goal scoring. 32 years old though, but even now he has 24 goals in 21 games in the Chinese Super League. Not suggesting anything for United, but I'm surprised I've never heard of him before...
What happened to Croatia? They have been trash after the World Cup. Important win for us in Belfast, was thinking we would drop points in this game. Still not convinced about our statud as a top elite team and I think we will lose when we come up against teams like France and Italy.
Portugal’s fantastic 4 are starting for the first time in a game together. Should be interesting what the formation will be like.
Will Felix play out wide?
Will he force Bruno out wide?
Is it a 3 man midfield a 2 man?
I hope he is able to get the team dynamics rights.

Luxembourg vs Serbia tonight. Hopefully a good game and a lot of goals. Will scout Milenkovic and Milinkovic-Savic if he plays
I thought he was way down the pecking order after he was dropped from the wc squad
Maybe a late bloomer like one of our academy lad
Finally
@SportingCP96 The fantastic four in the starting lineup. In the stadium waiting for them to put up a show.
In the stadium waiting for them to put up a show.United sign him in every single fifa career mode I play.
They played together 70 minutes vs Switzerland in the Nations League, it will be the same.
This fantastic 4 bollocks needs to end though
Jury is still out on Felix but Bruno is not good enough to be put in that company. He can do so once he starts playing better than William.
Sadly I’m going to miss a majority of the game@SportingCP96 The fantastic four in the starting lineup.
I truly hope they smash them and you enjoy the game I struggled badly with all 4 of them on PES2020 so you're right, it's more than just throwing them out thereThey played together 70 minutes vs Switzerland in the Nations League, it will be the same.

I hope we can get a goal against you guys just for fun although I reckon it’s going to be a massacre.Sadly I’m going to miss a majority of the game
Aren't you obsessed with Pogba ?
