    Nice. We’re often fumble the bag in the playoffs, but things seem very promising with Rebrov as a manager. Love this man and love what he’s doing to the national team. On a side note, I have a weird feeling that Luxembourg will qualify. It would be epic to see at least.

      You’ll be good if we’re at anything below 100% strength. Even then I’d still see you as clear favorites because we’re mental midgets when it counts. The only way I’d fancy us is if all our key players are there and you’re missing a few like Dovbyk, Tsygankov, and Zinchenko. Otherwise, enjoy Germany next summer!

      I think all neutrals will want to see Luxembourg get in, because it would be such an achievement for a team that is usually such a minnow, and also because they actually play good football and score some great goals too

        Weirdly enough, they wouldn’t be the smallest country to get in, that would still be Iceland. Yet to me Luxembourg feels way more obscure than Iceland, but they actually have twice the population

          I looked this up, and you’re right

          Mind is COMPLETELY blown, I had absolutely no idea about the populations, apparently even montenegro has slightly less people then lux

          I feel people kinda fuse Luxembourg and Liechtenstein together. Liechtenstein has a way smaller population (only 40k), but still liken to Luxembourg with it’s geography, nature, size and being small, but with rich people. So confusing the two or mixing them together is understandable.

        Which is strange because they are double the population of Iceland for example

          Sure, why not, for similar reasons, although not as small as Lux, and I don’t know their style of play

          Nothing even against Georgia, seeing Kvara at a major tournament would be great, and I don’t know what Greece are like these days but surely not as defensive as they used to be right

            No interest in watching Georgian players rolling around. Shower of cheating cunts. I don’t think Luxembourg have qualified for any tournament before. Good luck to them!

        I mean with this stupid format everyone has a realistic shot on reaching the KO stage. Including Luxembourg if they reach the main competition
