The Euros have not been great so far. Quite a number of average matches, no breakout players and an insistence on high-pressing football as the ONLY way to address the modern game has meant it’s not been a classic.
So far, it’s the sublime beauty of England’s creative flair that has, alone, moved the dial. Only kidding! They’ve been terrible! By the time you read this, they might be out. If they are, and you support them, I commiserate with you. It must be frustrating to be promised so much and to see so little so timidly delivered. And yes, that’s a very obvious bald political analogy – thank you, thankyouverymuch.
In truth, only the freewheeling, frantic chaos of Türkiye has offered genuine never-know-what-to-expect-next excitement.
One benefit of Euro 2024…
