Only thing I'd feel confident on is Netherlands not winning the tournament.

This guy hates England. Its hilarious. They have the best starting 11 in the tournament. Bellingham, Saka, Foden, Kane, Walker, Stones, Alexander-Arnold etc are all world class. I agree they are playing boring football and it's poor, but it's the Southgate way. At least try to pretend to be impartial rather than show your England hate.
@@AngeloFCB world class based on facts. Foden best player in the Prem, Bellingham in La Liga, Kane in Bundesliga. Those are the facts. Facts that trump your hate towards England
As a Dutch guy, i have to agree with you on this, even if i don’t want to. England played hella ass Southgateball but we haven’t impressed either. Idk why Koeman doesn’t play Frimpong or Malen on the right flank and why he still chooses Depay to start. Why doesn’t Weghorst or Zirkzee start instead of him who had a great season at bologna? Like you said ‘just choose your best players’. Let’s just hope for great football and tbh i would like a Spain Netherlands final, that is in my opinion the best outcome if you just fun attacking football. Anyway, great video :)
To be fair tho, Leao had an absolute field day with Kounde in the quarter final, whats stopping Nico from having that as well. Same style of play, similar speed etc
I think that with Spain and France facing each other with those missing from Spain and France following almost the same fortune that England has gained, Spain will score and punish France by scoring early forcing France to actually score from open play against a less cohesive back line( or get a penalty) where international Mbappe actually looks like his normal self. Possible makings of having a crazy shoot out, just my thoughts 🤷🏽♂️
Im English and how we've got this far is crazy😂.we should have been beaten by now but we never got the Email,we just wont be beaten,stubbon,wilful,individual moments,mentally strong pig headed, WHO knows, 2 teams playing poor footy,and 1 team playing reasoably well,and 1 team thats spanish there playing good footy.Wont back against england so its spain and England in the final and even i cant believe it.⚽👍⚽⚽🥃🍻🥂🍾❤
totally honest, france are probably gonna win it all just because of how good, well organized and experienced they have been when they get late into major tournaments
“What is it with England”? They’ve had the easiest draw possible. It is kind of crazy how they score when they need it. They have that kind of quality, but overall they are so timid and just lack personality. I don’t think they would reach the final if they were on the other side of the draw
easiest draw possible, right. swiss drew 1-1 with Germany and bullied italy for 90 minutes. the Danes were in complete control against Germany also until the ref gifted them the lead.
i dont think any team can underestimated, buddy. calling any team the "easiest" is just unfair and disrespectful to that team - i mean look at 2016, we literally lost to iceland
@@Espeo It's relatively easy. Team just don't have the attacking quality to hurt you. We can be in denial and say otherwise but it's true. You're telling me you would rather play Germany/Spain and France/Portugal than Slovakia and Switzerland? There's a reason they have been the favorite for bookies, because their path is relatively easy. With that said, Netherlands will be a tough game.
@@jamesog2858 It's all relative. You can't look at both sides of the draw and say that England didn't get lucky. Switzerland are a great team, but England should be beating them with the amount of talent they have. All of the teams that can challenge England when it comes to talent are on the other side of the draw.
The bookies have Netherlands with the lowest odds to win it all, the way I see it that’s a great bet. England probably won’t be able to score against their defense and assuming Spain beats France, their free flowing play style (with no outstanding goal scorer) may run into problems against such a solid back line
I appreciate you're a relative newbie to football but if you knew your history you would know that Italy and Germany have made their histories on playing poorly yet winning tournaments. Meanwhile flair teams like Holland and (until 2008-2012_ Spain have historically been been great to watch yet fail. England used to be like Holland and Spain (70, 86, 90, 96, 98 an with the golden generation of 04-14) but now they're doing what the Germans and Italians have done and its paying off.
If you do actually read the comments pick, I know Uruguay will win the Copa just because they have bielsa as their manager, I’m a Leeds fan and what he did for us was nothing short of a miracle he will win the copa 100%
@@tillespeli7652 So purposefully ignore the fact that Kroos should have received a red card and jump to the "robbed" shortcut. You just want a free point without working for it.
@@saiyerugara9038 The referee didn't call the offside, we didn't see any lines drawn whatsoever. The game didn't stop so Cucurella's handball should have counted.
I don't get why Koeman doesn't start Frimpong, and instead keeps using Dumfries as a wingback when Frimpong was one of the best wingbacks in Europe last season. If you want to attack just start Frimpong and sub Dumfries later on for that defensive presence.
Tbf Spain have started with Cucurella over grimaldo all tournament and I don’t think anyone would’ve predicted that. International football is a lot more different than we think
@@bluesEvanskro Yeah but Cucurella has been great since the tournament started, Dumfries...not so much. I like him as a player, but for the system that Koeman is trying to implement i believe Frimpong would be much better.
As much as it pains me to addmit since I m romanian and they were clearly favored by the referee, Netherlands showed commitment and that they are willing to push it compared to England who is just slaking. 100% Netherlands will come on top
You are also missing the fact that whilst there weren't many shots on target, England controlled the game, had more possession, more shots, more completed passes and tackles etc.
England has won only 1 game in 90 mins so far. Denmark, Slovenia, Slovakia, Switzerland: all tied after 90 mins. England controlling games results in boring games and draws.
@@DutchMolenaar and all that is irrelevant. My point was in response to the claim made that SWZ dominated and were the better team when they weren’t. As for ‘boring games’ that only matters to neutrals and a football team has no obligation to entertain anyone let alone neutrals. Italy and Germany’ remarkable WC and Euro success on playing boring football, playing poorly, scraping, narrow, victories, against weak opponents, drawing games. Catennacio is the most boring style of football yet is ingrained in Italy’s history. Conversely, the entertainers - Spain and the Netherlands - have historically always failed to win and up until 2008 (when Spain started a brief spell of success) they, along with England, were the great mysteries of international football for not having more trophies.
We lions gonna win from england i know they have a good team and all but they play like the netherlands a few years ago not the world cup but europa cup keep ball possession that the tactic but england gives a lot of low through balls after al the matches i've seen i think thats our weakness
We, the Dutch will beat you English. We have a similar tactic with possession in defence but with weghorst and malen subbed on we would beat you. 🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱

@@user-nj8io4kl1u that Bert goalkeeper is a penalty expert.
The players gonna be frozen in the English v Spanish final
ENGLISH OR SPANISH!
🇨🇵2-1🇪🇦
🏴1-1🇳🇱
Bro talking like a future pundit in the making.
everybody kicks us dutch out every round in every prediction but we still here
Bergwijn is playing because koeman wants to have a box in the midfield. You need a right winger that can play in the inside for that
Spain vs Netherlands final!!
Im English and how we've got this far is crazy😂.we should have been beaten by now but we never got the Email,we just wont be beaten,stubbon,wilful,individual moments,mentally strong pig headed, WHO knows, 2 teams playing poor footy,and 1 team playing reasoably well,and 1 team thats spanish there playing good footy.Wont back against england so its spain and England in the final and even i cant believe it.⚽👍⚽⚽🥃🍻🥂🍾❤
Pickford not good at saving pens? what
totally honest, france are probably gonna win it all just because of how good, well organized and experienced they have been when they get late into major tournaments
I think Mbappe will destroy Jesus Navas. Carvajal is a big loss , he pocketed Musiala last game
“What is it with England”? They’ve had the easiest draw possible. It is kind of crazy how they score when they need it. They have that kind of quality, but overall they are so timid and just lack personality. I don’t think they would reach the final if they were on the other side of the draw
easiest draw possible, right. swiss drew 1-1 with Germany and bullied italy for 90 minutes. the Danes were in complete control against Germany also until the ref gifted them the lead.
i dont think any team can underestimated, buddy. calling any team the "easiest" is just unfair and disrespectful to that team - i mean look at 2016, we literally lost to iceland
@@Espeo It's relatively easy. Team just don't have the attacking quality to hurt you. We can be in denial and say otherwise but it's true. You're telling me you would rather play Germany/Spain and France/Portugal than Slovakia and Switzerland? There's a reason they have been the favorite for bookies, because their path is relatively easy. With that said, Netherlands will be a tough game.
@@jamesog2858 It's all relative. You can't look at both sides of the draw and say that England didn't get lucky. Switzerland are a great team, but England should be beating them with the amount of talent they have. All of the teams that can challenge England when it comes to talent are on the other side of the draw.
Nick is honestly giving incredible analysis
*Pick
I agree he's the best TH-camr at it in my opinion he actually knows ball
The bookies have Netherlands with the lowest odds to win it all, the way I see it that’s a great bet. England probably won’t be able to score against their defense and assuming Spain beats France, their free flowing play style (with no outstanding goal scorer) may run into problems against such a solid back line
England be playing ea fc at this point
Nick rooting for every team that England play is kinda annoying considering most his audience are english
I appreciate you're a relative newbie to football but if you knew your history you would know that Italy and Germany have made their histories on playing poorly yet winning tournaments. Meanwhile flair teams like Holland and (until 2008-2012_ Spain have historically been been great to watch yet fail. England used to be like Holland and Spain (70, 86, 90, 96, 98 an with the golden generation of 04-14) but now they're doing what the Germans and Italians have done and its paying off.
Let’s go
Best keeper was Donnaruma, Italy just can’t attack
Spain look really strong, definitely can win against France especially if we see some more strong saves by Cucurella and Simón
Nick: The REAL Spoiler
Rabiot should not see the XI after that cama performance, but with deschamps u never know
If you do actually read the comments pick, I know Uruguay will win the Copa just because they have bielsa as their manager, I’m a Leeds fan and what he did for us was nothing short of a miracle he will win the copa 100%
Germany got robbed tho. We don't know how the game would have turned if Germany would have been awarded the penalty they deserved.
@@tillespeli7652 So purposefully ignore the fact that Kroos should have received a red card and jump to the "robbed" shortcut. You just want a free point without working for it.
@@es1ib Not necessarily. If Kroos would have been booked he would have been very careful to avoid getting booked a 2nd time.
@es1ib That and before the handball, there was already an offside.
@@saiyerugara9038 The referee didn't call the offside, we didn't see any lines drawn whatsoever. The game didn't stop so Cucurella's handball should have counted.
@tillespeli7652 Well, the offside was 1st so that's what should have been looked at I think.
I don't get why Koeman doesn't start Frimpong, and instead keeps using Dumfries as a wingback when Frimpong was one of the best wingbacks in Europe last season. If you want to attack just start Frimpong and sub Dumfries later on for that defensive presence.
Tbf Spain have started with Cucurella over grimaldo all tournament and I don’t think anyone would’ve predicted that. International football is a lot more different than we think
@@bluesEvanskro Yeah but Cucurella has been great since the tournament started, Dumfries...not so much. I like him as a player, but for the system that Koeman is trying to implement i believe Frimpong would be much better.
Dumfries is better at defending, that's why.
🇫🇷 v 🏴 final
As much as it pains me to addmit since I m romanian and they were clearly favored by the referee, Netherlands showed commitment and that they are willing to push it compared to England who is just slaking. 100% Netherlands will come on top
cold
Ive predicted england to lose the last 2 and thats gonna continue, but i havent been impressed with any of the final 4 other than spain
Bro, Be my fifa coach
Hey they have elite talent just need moments of magic
I hate Southgate but reality is England and Spain have better players
England has won only 1 game in 90 mins so far.
You are also missing the fact that whilst there weren't many shots on target, England controlled the game, had more possession, more shots, more completed passes and tackles etc.
England has won only 1 game in 90 mins so far. Denmark, Slovenia, Slovakia, Switzerland: all tied after 90 mins. England controlling games results in boring games and draws.
@@DutchMolenaar and all that is irrelevant. My point was in response to the claim made that SWZ dominated and were the better team when they weren’t. As for ‘boring games’ that only matters to neutrals and a football team has no obligation to entertain anyone let alone neutrals. Italy and Germany’ remarkable WC and Euro success on playing boring football, playing poorly, scraping, narrow, victories, against weak opponents, drawing games. Catennacio is the most boring style of football yet is ingrained in Italy’s history. Conversely, the entertainers - Spain and the Netherlands - have historically always failed to win and up until 2008 (when Spain started a brief spell of success) they, along with England, were the great mysteries of international football for not having more trophies.
Holland beat turkey which were playing the best football in the tournament
the same Turkey that lost 3-0 to Portugal (which then lost to France on penalties, who also drew with the Netherlands) funny how football works
Weird you took a vacation now, so you didnt have to stream Spain Germany. If Spain doesn't win, there are no Football gods or cosmic justice.
We lions gonna win from england i know they have a good team and all but they play like the netherlands a few years ago not the world cup but europa cup keep ball possession that the tactic but england gives a lot of low through balls after al the matches i've seen i think thats our weakness
We, the Dutch will beat you English. We have a similar tactic with possession in defence but with weghorst and malen subbed on we would beat you. 🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱
@@phantomplayz3686 saka is better than both
@@Espeo cap
I’m not gonna lie, I’m English and I’m scared to watch that semi final game.
I'm Dutch but me too bro... Maybe the best man win!! 🤝
