FORZA ITALIA

I'd hate to see Terry lift an other trophy this year

 

[Kyoufu]

Robben's head looks like a spud that someone with fat fingers has peeled with a knife.

:lol

You're a Sunderland fan, but I still love you.

Forbidden love.

He'll just show up in the background of whatever country ultimately lifts it anyway.

Hixx is certainly one of my favourite Mackems.

Shearer - "Ballotelli hasn't won anything"

HAHAHA

 

[BlindCommunication]

Are Italy going to play 4 at the back since Chiellini is out?

 

[K1LLER7]

somehow I feel like Chico and Kagawa are gonna be BFF's. I wouldn't be surprised if chico acts as Kagawas translator since he did it once with Anderson.

Think their partnership could be like Kagawa with Lowendowski. Think a player like Kagawa is what Chicha needs.

 

[Hixx]

Oh shit kick off has sneaked up on me! Aaaah

 

[Messi]

Shearer - "Ballotelli hasn't won anything"

HAHAHA

 

[Willkiller]

Mmm

[Scum]

G'wan, StokEngland! \o/

 

[Hixx]

Balotelli destroying Terry..

 

[Feorax]

Just read former LFC youth defender Miki Roque has died of a tumour. Only 24. Fucking horrible.

RIP.

 

[Messi]

We're back

HOLY SHIT BUFFON, *BOW*

 

[Clegg]

Terry can't play the offside line, he's just too slow.

Balotelli can't finish for shit right now.

Pirlo has been running the show.

Rooney has just been off the pace the entire game. Welbeck has done well winning the ball for England but their wingers have done nothing in attack.

Enjoyable first half though. Much better than Spain/France.

 

[bjaelke]

Terry can't play the offside line, he's just too slow.

Opta Sports ‏@OptaJoe
0 - England haven't caught any opposition players offside at Euro 2012. Line.

Should just read Terry instead of England.

 

[aaaaaaaaaaaa7654]

Milner and Young have been terrible. Get them off

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Our wingers are pointless right now. Ox and Walcott on please.

 

[santi_yo]

Oh god, i'm depressed right now...

Real Betis defender Miki Roque has died at the age of 23. Fuck. He had cancer.

Shit.

 

[Willkiller]

Milner and Young have been terrible. Get them off

Disagree, Milner is clearly on defensive duty. Johnson has look wobbly at times so I'm glad he's there. Terry has been shite though, he's too slow to play as high as he's playing.

 

[Gareth Bale]

Why put Rooney or Welbeck on Pirlo? Both are doing a poor job and it's a waste of their energy. Either stick Parker on him or take Welbeck off for Jones and just tell him to follow Pirlo everywhere.

edit: Milner's doing his job. Not sure why people are complaining. He's there mainly to protect Johnson and he's done that.

 

[keit4]

RIP

Very sad news

I'd take off Rooney instead of Welbeck tbh.

He looks shattered out there.

 

[Arnie]

Shit.

Ahh that's fucking horrible.

RIP

[Gareth Bale]

Promising start so far! I expect the next 44+ minutes will be much worse!

 

[Kyoufu]

Mark Lawrenson is so painful to listen to.

Worst commentator ever.

 

[dc89]

Milner expected one of the three players to make a different run then. Yet all three made the exact same run.

 

[Blablurn]

de rossi u stupid fuck

 

[Gareth Bale]

Haha wow

 

[Willkiller]

Hahahahhahahahahahahah

 

[dc89]

England lethargic in coming out then which played him onside. Should have punished England.

 

[dc89]

Balotelli was going to deck the England player then, until he realised it was Milner.

 

[Bumhead]

Milner and Rooney have been the weak link for me so far. Rooney did better then but has looked a few yards off the pace upto then.

Need to step it up.

 

[Lightning]

Italy look the more dangerous side for me. They just can't finish but sooner or later one of these chances are going to go in.

 

[aaaaaaaaaaaa7654]

Disagree, Milner is clearly on defensive duty. Johnson has look wobbly at times so I'm glad he's there. Terry has been shite though, he's too slow to play as high as he's playing.

True, i'm being a bit harsh on him but balzaretti is getting all sorts of space on that side of the pitch.

 

[dc89]

England are riding their luck now. Anywhere else except straight at Hart and Balotelli would have scored.

Balotelli is being a real menace now.

 

[Gareth Bale]

Jesus fucking Christ. Jeff is right, Hart parrys everything.

 

[elsk]

Think their partnership could be like Kagawa with Lowendowski. Think a player like Kagawa is what Chicha needs.

Kagawa complained about Lewa being a poacher, actually haha. He prefers someone like Lucas Barrios, who can also pass the ball to him.

 

[dc89]

Stevie Starfish.

 

[aaaaaaaaaaaa7654]

Young off ox on please

 

[Lunchbox]

gerrard thought he was in the box

 

[dc89]

Young's been poor. It's like he's been star struck this game and a true rabbit in the headlights.

 

[Gareth Bale]

Why let Pirlo just spray these passes around? He's the only one creating anything for them. Fucking close him down. Don't just run towards him, stop 5 yards away and wave your arms about!

 

[Lightning]

Neither of these sides better present Germany with this many chances or they will conceed 4 goals....

 

[dc89]

Balotelli showing his strength and flair. Say what you want, he is talented.

 

[aaaaaaaaaaaa7654]

Wellbeck played very well i thought, won nearly every header, not sure why you'd bring him off.

 

[Gareth Bale]

Welbeck put a good shift in. Young should have come off instead of Milner.

 

[BlindCommunication]

Shame, Young should have come come off but Roy won't play Welbeck, Carroll and Rooney together. Welbeck had a great game, dominated in the air and defended well too.
