I'd like to think we'll make the semis at least with these young lads having a bit more experience by next summer.
I think a lack of leaders and nastiness might leave us short.
I feel I can get behind this lot more than last year.
We've got rid of the 'spice boys' (Ali & Lingard) and Ashley Young. I just can't be doing with them.
We also seem to have better options than Eric Dier now.
Im being a bit sarcy there Hodger about 'its coming home'.
(btw I hated that stuff last year when we were doing well in the World cup, all that kept doing was setting us up for another bigger fall!!).

We should indeed make the knockout stages next year, and then of course anything can happen. But there are some ridiculous rules this time as to where the teams could be playing, as these Finals are spread all over Europe for the first ever time. We might have a Last-16 round match in Denmark or Russia, and we might have a Qtr Final match in Rep Ireland or Holland etc... (Im not quite sure, and Im only guessing there at the moment).
But if we can get to the massive stage of the Semi's at Wembley, then who knows eh ?.
