Thanks for these, these are very interesting, I was just checking out Rashford's value on the website that you mention in the transfer value list, and he is only listed at £4.5 million, that is surely a bit on the low side, as I doubt that any team that came in with a bid to that value would get their bid accepted for him, so if he was valued correctly, England's squad total, would definitely go up, perhaps into third place.

Only squad to contain 23 players who play in their home country ? England
Only two countries to have a squad of 23 players who all play outside the country ? Northern Ireland and Republic of Ireland |

Why is Russia's Leonid Slutsky working for free?
Russia goes from having the most expensive manager to having a free one. Typically Russian |

N.Ireland and the Republic don't have any full time professional teams of course making it virtually impossible for any domestic players to be picked.

Heard this on the radio the other night, in the last 8 Euro Championship finals England have qualified for they haven't won their first match and have 4 draws and 4 defeats.

Though in a way, that shows you how threadbare their squad was.....those guys would have been only part timers and would even have had day jobs.

How's this for an unusual stat - Sławomir Peszko is probably the only player at the tournament with four kidneys. Quote:

Group Stage Stats from Opta:
- Sixty-nine goals have been scored so far, a rate of 1.92 per game, the lowest average for a group phase at a European Championship since 1992 (1.75). - Forty-five of the 69 goals in the group stages were scored in the second half (65%). Also, 27.5% of the goals came from the 80th minute onwards (19). - This is the first time since 1996 that no team won all three of their group games at the Euros. - Ukraine were the only team to lose all of their group games and fail to score at Euro 2016. - Portugal are the only team qualified for the knockout stages that didn't win a single game in the group phase (three draws). - There were only two red cards in the group phase: Lorik Cana v Switzerland and Aleksandar Dragovic v Hungary. - Wales are the first debuting nation to top a group at the Euros since Sweden in 1992. - Gareth Bale became the seventh different player to score in each of his three group games at a European Championship (since 1980) and the second from a home nation (Alan Shearer in 1996). - Bale is the first player since Thomas Hassler in 1992 to score two free-kick goals in one European Championship. - England won for the first time at a major tournament having trailed at half-time, beating Wales 2-1 after being 1-0 down. - Niall McGinn scored in Northern Ireland's 2-0 win against Ukraine on 95min 48sec - the latest goal in regular time in Euros history. - Germany had 79% possession vs Northern Ireland, the highest tally in a single game at the Euro Finals since 1980. - Petr Cech has conceded 21 goals in Euros history - more than any other player. The former record was 20 goals conceded by Peter Schmeichel. - Emre Mor is the youngest player to assist a goal at Euro 2016 and the third youngest in Euros history (after Enzo Scifo in 1984 and Wayne Rooney in 2004) - 18y 332d. - Spain have failed to convert four of their last seven penalties (excluding shoot-outs) at the Euros. - Alvaro Morata's defeat v Croatia was only the second in his career in a senior game where he had scored, after the Champions League final v Barcelona. - Cristiano Ronaldo made his 17th European Championship Finals appearance in Portugal's final group game against Hungary; an outright record. - By scoring against Hungary, Cristiano Ronaldo became the first player to score in four different European Championship finals tournaments (2016, 2012, 2008 and 2004). - Currently, only Michel Platini (9) has scored more goals in European Championship Finals than Ronaldo (8). - Zoltan Gera became the second oldest goal scorer in a EURO finals match (37y 61d old) - behind Ivica Vastic (Austria v Poland - June 2008 - 38y 256d). - Zlatan Ibrahimovic only had one shot on target in 270 minutes in his last major tournament with Sweden. |

79% is mad. One thing that's stood out for me is that all the debutants have won games, and only one has gone home. That can't happen too often in tournaments.
