Belgium > Italy, just because we lost to them, doesn't make Italy suddenly better. Or if you really do believe that logic, then you just called Wales, Portugal + whoever joins them today and tomorrow the best 4 teams of Europe.

They are on paper lol, they should have enough about them to beat Italy. That game came down to Italy being tactically set up better.

@Don

Except, Belgium pre-Euro have consistently been performing well, except against Wales 2x (and then once against Portugal because we missed 5/11 players and were basically playing with a B-team), whereas Italy pre-Euro struggled to even beat minor teams like Bulgaria, Malta and Azerbaijan in the qualifiers. You can call Italy better than Belgium if you want to, but then it just shows you didn't follow either team pre-tournament.

This.

And that means that the issue is the manager and not the team itself. I am sure England will get better results under a new manager and likewise for Belgium, and I'm sure that Conte or Coleman (Wales manager name?) are among the better strategists of this tournament. In fact, for tonight I even predicted a 0-1 win for Italy and against Germany. Why? Not because I think Italy are better than Germany, Spain or Belgium (because Italy aren't), but because Conte's tactical plan has been working.
