Roy has made two fucking putrid decisions, moving Sterling out wide and taking Wellbeck off.
 
Glen Johnson should never play for England again
 
Well done Cahill. Might come down to GD.

Fuck Roy for being a coward and not even TRYING to shore up the left side at half time.
 
Fuck Baines.


Fuck Johnson.


Fuck Rooney.



Great match though. This World Cup is really setting a standard. Absolutely amazing start.
 
We were good, but Hodgson really needs to figure out this teams strengths.

And fuck the fuck off fucking Rooney, you fucking shitarse.
 
Rooney and Johnson should be embarrassed. So should Roy for moving Sterling onto the wing.

Still encouraged by the performance. Costa Rica's win means England still have a decent chance to qualify.
 
Always a pleasure to see England lose.

Bah.

First half we were really good. Second we just didn't know what to do when Italy got themselves organised.

Baines and Rooney were gash (cross aside). Sterling class but was rushing things at the end. We're shit at set pieces.

Saw enough to think we might make it out of the group, specially considering Uruguay's performance.
 
Italian football: Horribly effective. People always say us Germans are the organised ones. Strange becaue the Italians have always been the better organised team.
Boring but you can't argue with the results.
 
Subs were bad imo. Not bad substitutions, but the performances of te subs weren't good enough. Barkley could have done something if Rooney wasn't such a cunt tbf. Looked too tired to pile on the pressure necessary to break them down in the last 15 minutes.

2 main things to work on:

1) Wide defending, especially on the left. Can't just allow a constant stream of crosses like that.
2) Attacking set pieces. Floaty, mishit shite from Gerrard, Baines and Rooney.

Confident we can beat Uruguay, especially if Suarez isn't ready.
 
Jones and Ashley Cole would have been decent.

Ah well. Italy were good but it's the first game for both. So it's a good performance.
