I'm nothing if I don't keep to my promises.
Lol Ashley Young "I'm not a cheat. I'm not a diver. I go out to play football fairly and I've done that ever since I was young. A lot of people have a lot of different opinions and things are said. But it doesn't affect me at all. Not one bit. I don't dive."
Sorry Ash, love ya, you are a good player but you are a diver. Dive for a penalty tomorrow son and all will be forgiven

Lol Stewart Downing "I'm not shit. I'm not a fucking waste of fucking talent. I go out to play football well and I've done that ever since I was young. A lot of people have a lot of different opinions and things are said. But it doesn't affect me at all. Not one bit. I'm not fucking crap."
Hard to agree only because he's been consistently great everywhere he's been, not just for Italy!
Ergo, the conclusion is that Allegri is an idiot.
How do you see England lining up tomorrow?
Hodgson seems happy to have his teams sit back and hit the opposition on the counter attack. I just can't see this working against France though.
I'd start Welbeck tomorrow. It might be my United bias showing but I think England look more threatening with him than they do with Carroll.

I would go:
Hart
Johnson - Terry - Lescott - Cole
Parker - Milner
Chamberlain - Gerrard - Young
Welbeck
The team will be
Hart
Johnson - Terry - Lescott - Cole
Milner - Gerrard - Parker - Downing
Young
Carroll
EAT ASS
Shearer was better than the both of them combined
Ronaldo (R9) was better than Shearer, so was
Heskey
I hope they play Wilburys 1st team, but it'll most likely be the 2nd team. Can't leave Big Andy out

Ronaldo was incredible yes.
As for the bold....just get out.
I never really watched Villa closely as much as you, so I was being unfair with my impositions, I apologize.
And for example, if Torres maintained his level of 2 years ago until he was 30, and still didn't win many titles, I would consider him one of the best players during my time watching football.
But I wouldn't put him with the likes of Ibra.

Torres will be remembered forever for his beautiful hair and the fact he went from good to shite quicker than one of Kyoufu's posts
That's quite an achievement.
Where is Kyoufu anyway? I don't think he likes the EURO much.

Anyway, apparently Di Matteo is being offered a one-year contract at Chelsea. That will do, I guess.
I think he's playing Diablo or sniffing a pair of Cisse's shorts and masturbating into a sports bottle
Yeah, Roman's gonna try for Pep next year confirmed. I look forward to it.
And the goal that made G.Neville have an orgasm on live TV
Holy fuck I forgot about that hahaha, I'm gonna go listen now
Welbeck will start with Young behind him, calling it.
I fucking hope so. Carroll will be better against Ukraine.
While I believe it's a tad disrespectful to Di Matteo, I think it's the right call. Amazing job that he has done, managing for a season is a much different beast to that of an interim basis. Doubly so considering Chelsea.
I just... don't see Guardiola taking it if Abramovich is going to go over his head. The signing's they've made have no doubt made a better team if someone like Pep is going to take over. But to spend £80m with no manager?
Consumed by Diablo 3, but I saw the Spain-Italy game today and will see England-France tomorrow.
Supporting France for sure.
May I ask why? John Terry?
Hello there! Wessiej is around sometimes, he's an Ajax fan. He posted orgasmic pictures of Ajax winning stuff last year.
Will listen to it tomorrow, cheers. First two episodes were class.

How has Bulykin and his flowing locks been like this year for Ajax? I remember some people demanding he get a call-up to the national team. Seems crazy to me since I've never rated him at all.

My local team has arranged friendlys against Wycombe, Aldershot, Fulham XI and are closing in on a QPR XI haha.
I would love to see Joey Barton play at a non-league team.

He will one day, prison teams are non-league aren't they?

Pretty useless. He spent most of his time on the bench and is only useful for scoring easy tap in goals. A poor man's Gomez but ten times worse basically.

I just want to see the semi pros kick the shit out of him. I would like to think he would be killed if he pulled the same shit in non league haha.
Frank de Boer used him as a last option to storm trough the opponents defence. That worked out fine a couple times, he even scored an important goal against title concurrent PSV. I was glad to have him because our first striker was injured most of the season. He sure contributed to the title.
But I don't he got anything on players like Arshavin or Dzagoev.
With nine goals I wouldn't call him useless. But not good enough to earn a spot on the Russian squad for the Euros.

Ah, just like I remember, lol. Bulykin was trying to argue that the only reason he wasn't called up was because he doesn't get along with Advocaat and not for the real reason, because he's shit.

Nine goals? I would've guessed six or something. But I don't think he fits in the current Ajax squad. He's a fine 'battering ram' but pretty much useless on the pitch. Take away the PSV equalizer and you don't have much left.
Definitely. Just look at Dalglish; he was brilliant as an interim manager, revitalised the way we were playing and united a disillusioned team. Then the summer came, he didn't spend wisely and perhaps he attempted to change the style and structure of the team a bit too much, to our cost.
It'll be really interesting to watch how RDM does over the year.
Damn you, I was just about to go to bed. Love Amy Laurence's voice.
Oh, and if anyone wants an entertaining read for all the wrong reasons check out Rafa's blog hosted by the Independent. It's great reading it in his accent.
True. He's not fitting the Ajax system. He's way too slow. But we have Sigthorsson who will be doing just fine next season.
By the way, is Sadist active on football Gaf?

Never seen him post here, think he's more in Gaming than OT. I'm the only IGFer in the footy-GAF as far as I know.

River 2 - Boca

Does Juan Riquelme still play for the real Boca? I used to love him...
Also which team got relegated last year, was it River?
Any Italian football fans know much about Fabio Borini?

I hope Russia continue to play like they did against Czech. They've been my favorite team to watch. Dzagoev is fantastic. Honda, Dzagoev and Doumbia make CSKA one of my favorite teams in Fifa (but I pick Spartak because they're only 4 stars
The thing about Dzagoev is that he's inconsistent. If he's on, he's good but sometimes he just seems completely disinterested playing teams like Amkar, Terek, etc. He seems to be developing a big-game player reputation though which could bode well for the rest of Russia's tournament.
If you Google Rasmus Elm from The Netherlands Google ads the word 'gezicht', in English that's 'face'
The poor chap is having some skin troubles. But he's very important for AZ. Don't know how he will hold up against world class players though.
What's up with this Fady K guy by the way, according to the fist post he supports every team out there
