TEDDY SHERINGHAM HAS GIVEN HIS PREDICTION for Saturday’s huge clash between England and Ukraine, while also tipping Belgium to reach the final from the top half of the Euro 2020 draw. England to beat Ukraine 3-0
“I’m guessing Ukraine are going to be sitting deep against England on Saturday night; they won’t be trying to come out and play against us. We’ll probably be having to break them down, so our formation will change again. I think it’ll probably be a 4-3-3, but with a little bit more going forward. We look very solid as a back four.”
“I wouldn’t be surprised if Gareth takes one of those holding midfielders out and puts a little bit more flair in that are of the pitch. Instead of playing with two sitting and one in front, I think he’ll go with one sitting and two in front to give us more chance of breaking the Ukrainians down.”
“As for my prediction for the England v Ukraine game, I’m going to go England to win 3-0.”
“I think England at least reach the final from this point. I just think we’ve dealt with everything so well so far, in the four games we’ve played. I’m not taking anything for granted, but I just like the way Gareth Southgate speaks. You only have to look at when England beat the All Blacks in the rugby, in the semi-final. They were celebrating like mad, then lost against South Africa. The job wasn’t complete; and it’s a little bit like that. Yes, we’ve beaten the Germans, and we’re all delighted, but it counts for nothing if we go to Rome and lose to Ukraine.”

“I definitely think England reach the final, and then from the other side of the draw, for me, I think Belgium come out on top.”

Belgium were shat. Had no idea Eden Hazard or Carrasco was not playing or would have backed the Italians. There’s no creativity there without Hazard. At least we avoided Martinez. Judging by the referees UEFA were after a Italy v Spain semi. Lukaku and Shaqiri were always scoring yesterday. Look at the 2 keepers Shaqiri scored past this tournament and see if you can spot an odd anomoly….
The Swiss v Spain match was dodgy as a 9 bob…
We should be ok tonight but Denmark with their full throttle never die attitude will be tougher.
Really though if its not England v Italy i will be gutted ,never a better chance.
Italy were superb tonight.
It’s Italy v Spain. England v Denmark likely.
Teddy was awful at Stevenage. I once thought he’d make a good manager
Teddy’s right I think. England v Denmark. Switzerland v Belgium.
De Bruyne is injured. A Belgium without him is a weakened Belgium.
Italy all the way.
