They're always like "Switzerland have no outstanding players" and then they list all the outstanding players they have. Sommer, Akanji, Xhaka, Ndoye, Embolo etc. lol

That Gab guy had Switzerland 4th in the group. You would expect that after yesterday he would give Switzerland at least a little bit of respect.

[zalemdreams]

Marcotti has this weird bitterness and superiority complex towards Switzerland where he can't give them full credit because he can't accept the fact that a tiny neighbor country has surpassed the mighty Italy at this sport. He's become pretty much unlistenable with Italy's downfall.

I realized against Germany that Switzerland was legit. Germany was very lucky to pull a draw there. With how slow Italy was, I knew they would get wacked. England aren't playing much better and are very lucky to go through. I think Switzerland will do the same to England. That team is barely floating above water and with Southgate, the morale is no existent.

Gab the guy who had Switzerland finish 4th in group A by the way. lol

[IntoMotivate]

Why is an American talking about football, 98% of them cant even find Germany on a map

[dunegoon]

What does tbis guy Gab have against switzerland. Really sounds like he lost a big bet on Italy lol.

Normally you’d be excited and happy that your country has reached the quarterfinal, but, let’s be honest, they’ve stunk the place out.

[laurasands]

It'll be the same starting eleven against Switzerland no doubt because in Southgates opinion it has worked.

[enrkfarn]

After watching Switzerland yesterday, i really dont fancy our chances. Their passing is so precise and they look relaxed in possesion. Wouldnt be surprised to see them in the Final 😢

[peterelsey]

Switzerland beat France in last euros no?

[brooklyniron]

Love the way Marcotti threw it back to the Scot. They drew against 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[cidiracing]

Yes please let England think "it's Switzerland, there is nothing to worry about we will be just fine".

[waxwork]

keep it up Gab, us Swiss love to be underrated - we'll let actions speak on saturday ;)

[KonstantinosTsirikos-ppmi]

England is going to win one way or another bye-bye Swiss 🧀

[nbaumann]

Conveniently indexing on the Scotland game while ignoring the Hungary and Germany game.

[krftkrft]

I guess we are lucky that they switched the coach assistant to Contini and maybe Xhakas trainer diploma is a pluss too. The mood in the team seems to be very positive.

[saidhammar]

"as long as they don't play as badly as against Slovakia... England will be just fine".
This guy is talking as if England had shown at some point anything different in the past four games 😂
If England plays better than against Slovakia, it wouldn't be England anymore 😂 it would probably be Slovakia in English shirts 😂

[coolman]

You bet Switzerland will give England a very hard time, given how the England team was clueless in their match against Slovakia.

[milannalim]

The guy in the middle is absolutely clueless! 😂
Please don’t come „England played shite“ when we beat you on Saturday!🇨🇭
