Why was Henderson brought on for Parker? Gerrard looks like he can barely move in the middle, I guess Hodgson was already thinking about penalties.

Fuck England. I should have never set my expectation on reaching the semis. We do this every competition. Now I feel like crying. Someone hold me. :'(

Ashley Young. Cunt.

There was another cunt named Ashley that missed too.

I don't blame players that miss in shootouts.

It takes balls just to take a penalty.

I'm not just talking about the PK shoot out.

Oh and Busquets is a cunt also.

Justice done, England deserved nothing tonight. We gave Pirlo the easiest night of his career. Young a non-entity. Rooney was fucking crap.

Have to remember we exceeded expectations to get this far but to go out on that performance stinks.

Cole missed? He always scores...

To be fair though, we didn't deserve to win. Italy thoroughly outplayed us. Still hurts though.

Young was awful all tournament

Why on Earth would you expect England, under Hodgson, with what mediocre personnel they have further reduced by injuries, to reach the semi-final? Many were expecting them to not even make it out of the group stages.

Congrats Italy. They were the better team. Some great penalties. Pirlo has been brilliant this Euro's. Hope he gets player of the Tournament.

England should learn from this, get some young players into the team. Get wilshere, Cleverly, OX all integrated into the team and hopefully it'll help the technical side of the team.

They gave Roy Hodgson a four year contract... four more years of that shitty football. Jesus Christ.

It'll take more than four years to start bringing through the players to change how England are able to play anyway.

Hodgson did everything right upto now to get England this far. He was let down by individuals tonight.
