OFFICIAL Euro 2016 Pick'em

Never trust England in a major tournament. I should've known better.
I actually think they will turn it around and make the next round.

I got a kick of the Belgian coach saying "Italy didn't play real football" in criticism of their counterattacking style. No, you got out coached and were too stupid to know that Italy has always played that way.
 
Italy's underachieved for a few years, so it might just be their time to come around.
I don't think this is their year. They are missing their playmakers in Pirlo, Verratti, and Marchisio. They won't beat good teams like Germany and Spain. However, I picked them above Belgium because they are a matchup nightmare for a team like that. Belgium lacks the discipline to play with a team like Italy that will pick you apart on the counter.
 
I'll figure out first round results tonight.

Here is the knockout bracket (open in new window if it looks fuzzy):

10 for each finalist (20 total)
20 for the winner

Fuck off.

BUMP
 
1. I like #MyKrauts today. If I'm wrong, it makes the above post hilariously wrong.

2. @doogsinparadise Take a look at Renato Sanches. Edgar Davids clone. 18 year old kid who has had a better tournament than Paul Pogba.
