Euro 2012 day 12. France V Sweden and Ukraine V England.

[FoxForceFive]

We're set up badly to play these, they're quick down the wings so should be playing a high line & pushing them back into their own half so we can slow play down & press further up the pitch.

 

[Fabio]

Carroll DEFINITELY would have got that on target

 

[Rosco]

Wayne with natural hair would have gotten it on target.

he's got no feel with that thing on his head

 

[FoxForceFive]

Carroll DEFINITELY would have got that on target

Bex would've got that on target*

*this is a lie.

 

[Bradley]

Carroll DEFINITELY would have got that on target

Was on my way to say just that.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Fuck me, Carroll must be gutted, there's more balls flying round the box at head level than in a Dutch swingers party.

 

[Fabio]

The movement in the Ukraine attack is phenomenal

 

[Athens]

I can't believe Rooney got implants just to grow that monstrosity.

 

[the_dude]

yeah parker, just dont shoot any more please

 

[JonesyRed]

Milner is anti football, he is black hole into which every england attack is sucked up and fucked up.

Young hasn't been much better.

 

[the_dude]

literally our back 4 and gerrard have been good and that's it

 

[Fabio]

Buy yarmolenko

 

[Athens]

Rooney's new do shall be no on called 'The Bronson'

 

[dave2]

Parker is a fucking hero. Knight the cunt now I saw.

 

[Modo]

Buy yarmolenko

He's good, no?

 

[FoxForceFive]

I often wonder if fans other than ours watch england & realise how much better than everyone else Gerrard is.

He looks like the only international in an England top with the exception of the defence.

 

[Frogfish]

The movement in the Ukraine attack is phenomenal

Fucking hell Fabs. Ukraine, like England, have been uttershite so far. They have zero ideas except shoot from 30+ yds !

 

[dave2]

Worst half of football I have seen for a while.

 

[dave2]

France 0-0 too. Also fucking dire.

He's been superb in every match, just oozes class. Johnson has been excellent in all 3 too (Milner should learn from him).

 

[gkmacca]

I wish England would finally realise that, when you've got the ball in the middle of the pitch, with plenty of space and options around you, passing it all the way back to the keeper so that he can then boot it straight back to the middle and thus lose possession, is one of the most witless 'strategies' in football,

 

[FoxForceFive]

This mars ad is like something from the 80s. As is the Nivea ad before it.

 

[Frogfish]

Rooney, and especially Welbeck, have been complete cock so far. Carroll would have been a far better option than Welbeck.

So would lineker

Hence my 'Hart's passing stats' comment earlier. It's fucking painful to watch.

Disagree

The intelligence of the wingers and midfielders have been top noych

Gusev too, has been boss

 

[rurikbird]

So far so good

 

[FoxForceFive]

Parker has been shite. Again.

Carroll is on fire.

Rooney is too rusty in front of goal but needs to play.

Take parker off for Carroll & move rooney back into midfield FFS. He's very good there & cannot be any worse than 'Scottie' fucking Parker.

England are basically begging Ukraine to come at them. They have been making the Ukrainians look good.

Sorry mate but in 45 mins they have created absolutely zero real, or even half, chances and all their midfield has done is run from one side of the pitch to the other. Snooze football.
