Personally I'm on my second one now and you need to be very careful in the early days as the wiring to the heart takes time to settle.

    Tyldesley is fucking insufferable.

    Turn the sound down If he upsets you.

    Superb start by Denmark, who have hit top gear and are playing a fast tempo.

    I think he's good. I don't really notice him, which I feel is a good sign.

    Will Belguim have the ball in the 10th minute to kick it out ?

    The Belgians really were rethinking that 10 minute gesture there.

    One of those games where denmark will need to take some of these chances or they’ll end up losing

    Tyldesley should know, coming from behind is now called Doing A Golfie.

    Useless commentator.

    Belgium been very poor so far, Denmark have looked like scoring almost every time they attack.

    Don't want to miss out on the noise of a packed, mask free stadium. 

    All Denmark still though. Bit more composure in the final third, and they could have had 2-3 at this rate.

    I'm amazed that Blind has continued to play on. To play top level sport with an ICD fitted seems incredible.

    I hope yours has been working well.

    I’m sure he turns up to each game with about 20 contrived lines/phrases that he’s mapped out to deliver as if he’s on stage at the Palladium or something.

    I actually think so far, ITV commentators have been much better than BBC. They always seem to do the job seamless (without noticing much) or the other day in particular they had me laughing alot

    Agreed. He really isn’t that bad at all.

    Isn't it great to know that it's not mandatory to make 50 passes before putting the ball in the box from an advanced position.

    The Danes level will dip and surely Belguim will work their way back into it.

    Liked that, but IMHO it deserves a promote.

    Am I wrong in looking at the current score as Thomas 1 Roland 0 and very much hoping Thomas wins this?

    I find him sanctimonious and preachy, with a regular ability to point out the obvious and treat HIS audience, as he probably sees it, like they would never have noticed without his brilliance.

    Belgium are looking 4 players short:
    De Bruyne, a sharp E.Hazard, Witsel and  Trossard.

    You may not realize but there are some people who only watch Euro's and WC's so it's not just Geeks like us/me who watch 250 games a season. 

    I have no problem with any of the commentators.

    Any team that high press and has quality in the last third should beat Belgium. 

    Lukaku looks like he’s back in a United shirt. They can’t be this poor for the last 35 mins surely.
