Spain

Spain is in a bad spot right now, with very obvious weaknesses. If they don't improve, I don't see them going far in the Euro imo.

Would have been refreshing to see VdB replaced.

VdB should complete the generation shift. Glad a few of the veterans understood that their time was over, however, there are a few left who has not yet understood that. Iker for one, a legend, but he is not as good as he was and he is getting older, DDG should be number 1 asap.

Spain still has some problems


Horrible defending yesterday on set pieces. Ukraine had a free opportunity to score nearly every time. A better finishing team would have destroyed them.

Certainly more entertaining to watch than Barça this season, the fluidity of the build-up play is still there, much faster and cleaner than Barça- Silva, Iniesta, Busquets.

Dont see why they have such issues, i understood them in the wc, alot of old players and alot of new ones, it was basically a mix between the old style and a new, didnt work well. Now they should have got rid of the veterans and sorting their issues out, the players they got at their disposal is still second to none.

I was away and extremely busy this past week so I did not watch any football games. I did watch the highlights and read the local newspapers though.

It seems that it was an ordinary performance by the team. Although Casillas apparently did not screw up then I believe that de Gea should become the goalkeeper at the UEFA Euro 2016. Hopefully he will put up a good show tonight.

Happy that Morata scored. Somehow I always believed that he could make it.

Looks like Del Bosque want to change the entire starting 11 against Netherlands tonight. It's a friendly so the result should not matter much although I am sure that the team want to avenge that embarrassing 5-1 result at the World Cup in Brazil last year. Aside from that then I always want to trash Netherlands. Anyway such games should be used to experiment.

Expected lineup;

Looking forward to Vitolos debut and obviously the performances of Pedro, Bartra and de Gea. I don't think that Juanmi can make it at this level but I will give him the benefit of the doubt.

Xavi Iniesta and Busi midfield is the greatest midfield ever. Without them any team would suffer, barca are lucky that they have messi. I can't even imagine what position we will be without him.

Pedro trying too hard but at least trying!
My god, middfield is inexistant !

Albiol ... no comment !

I hope he puts Bartra on, since it's already lost.
