Very enjoyable tournament. Not missing England not being there at all, to bring down the technical standard

.
Most enjoyed watching teams with excellent touch, Spain,Italy, Croatia etc. all take those short free kicks to a team mate, whether they are marked or not, they have the quality to play themselves out of trouble.
I do think the physical side of the English game has improved some players. Fabregas, Torres etc, all look very strong and don't tend to fall over as soon as touched nowadays.
