Young was better tonight IMO, although 'better' doesn't mean I disagree with you.

Haha spot on. Ukraine deserve an equalizer.
And wow Seb Larsson scored a 2nd goal for Sweden, hilariously bad from France.
Yep or else Spain will give them a beating
It's hard, cause I suppose you need to start your best 11 regardless of group stage form, but he's seemed really wasteful in all 3 games.
Why would he protect his head if he wasn't even using it in the first place?

CHAMPIONS OF THE WOOOOOOOOOORLD

Well there we go. Not pretty but we've won the group which is more than I expected at the start of the tourney. No team looks invincible, the only team I'd really not want to play at this point is Germany.
One thing England have this time which we haven't for a long time is luck.

Italy vs England, uh? Can't wait, really. Looking forward to it, this week is going to be so intense. 
They've done well. They've exceeded expectations and they've topped a group containing the hosts, an outside favourite and a team they've never beaten in a Championship before.
And they've done it professionally. England have qualified by being effecient, something we all used to praise the Germans for being for years.

From best Twitter feed ever:
Goal of the tournament?
Want semis of Spain v Portugal and England v Germany.
Looking at Spain in the past 3 matches and If Ronaldo keeps up his form, Portugal could win this thing.

Any gif of Ibra's goal?

We need to make a literacy test a requirement to use the internet.
So basically, if Andy isn't on the pitch, England don't win.
Lionheart Terry and Lescott will handle him.
What a strike!

Sweet! How about that close up of the shot?
There are enough people in that England team who will know which buttons to press to get him sent off.

So then, Welbeck or Carroll against Italy?
Milner or Walcott? (aka rock or hard place)
Best England player so far?

Question for anyone playing the Euro McDonald's fantasy game that has encountered this before:
The rules regarding captaincy are a little confusing -- it says I can switch my captain using a manager substitution. Does this mean I'd have to completely remove the player from my Starting 11 to remove his captain's bonus and put it on someone else? Or could I just change it and he'd only lose his double points bonus?
Thanks!

caroll probably merits it a bit more as welbz was so anonymous today but i'd rather use a pace attack against italy.
walcott. i can't watch anymore of milner on the wing jesus
gerrard has been vital in all our results and has put in some of his most disciplined performances
Hurry up and buy him City. Bring him to the PL
