Euros yawn?

So far I am finding this tournament to be one of least inspiring & least memorable international football competitions for many a year.......

I just hope it can finish with a bang, because so far it has been one massive yawn.

He that hateth dissembleth with his lips, and layeth up deceit within him; When he speaketh fair, believe him not: for there are seven abominations in his heart. Whose hatred is covered by deceit, his wickedness shall be shewed before the whole congregation.

I find it hard to be serious all the time - it's nice to try and lighten the mood every now and then!

Boring

I have to agree with this article and I was saying the same thing after the utter bore fest that was Spain v France.

Where´s the excitement ? Where´s the quality ?

This tournament is starting to remind me of the last World Cup which was also another bore fest.

The only team really worth watching so far is Germany.

The standard of football is very average so far and some of these games look more like training matches to me.

I think that the problem is that many of these players are exhausted after long hard seasons and I can see the sense in playing World Cups and Euros at the beginning of the season instead of at the end of the season.

We should follow the African example and play mid season.

Africa is the way forward

Much better than the world cup. Stick your negativity up your starfish

That really annoys me - I can understand that they play the ACON that time of year due to the weather but why every TWO years.

The WC & Euro's are only every four!

I´m not being negative, I´m simply commenting on what I´ve seen.

The media keep trying to tell us what an exciting tournament it is but I´ve seen more excitement in a graveyard in truth.

The general standard has been poor and I can think of only two maybe three games that I found genuinely entertaining.

The players look tired and Del Bosque has even admitted today that his players are exhausted.

It would make much more sense playing these tournaments at the beginning of the season.
