1. Has the Ronaldo / Messi debate been put to bed? They've traded La Liga titles and Ballond'Ors but now Ronaldo has an International tournament win to Messi's Olympic gold medal.
2. What next for Italy now that Antonio Conte has left for Chelsea? This maybe the weakest generation of Italian players in the history of forever and Conte had them playing like world beaters in a tight system. Can the next manager keep them anywhere near this level of play let alone better it?
3.Whats eating Paul Pogba? After his amazing domestic season viewers and fans were queueing up to see Paul Pogba dominate this final, but it didn't happen...
4. Where will Robson-Kanu be playing next season? He let his contract at Reading wind down, he scored the goal of tournament, is that enough to get a new club interested in him?
5. Will England continue fooling themselves into thinking Wayne Rooney is a world class midfielder? All through the tournament England had many faults but the worst was this joke of an experiment in midfield, surely they wont persist with it for another tournament?
6. Is Will Grigg still on fire?
7. Have Belgium morphed into Holland? Belgium, full of skillful players like Kevin De Bruyne, Jan Vertonghen and Eden Hazard but played like strangers and full of infighting rumours. Do we become our worst enemies?
8. What next for the underdogs? Iceland getting to the knockout stage, Wales to the semi finals and Hungary taking the lead against Portugal three times - it was a tournament for underdogs but attention turns to the World Cup qualifiers and with less places up for grabs will they even qualify let alone bring the tournament to life again?
9. Where next for Antoine Griezmann? The winner of the golden hoof/boot/slingback and after a magnificent two years for Aletico Madrid, surely the worlds his oyster?
10. Is finishing runners up enough to bring the people of France together? Bombings, murders we all know what happened in France and this tournament was seen as the ideal opportunity to bring the countries people back together. Ladies and gentle readers it is the firm hope of this blogger that it was enough.
