The pace on the Italian right back..

"The first glimpse of Tiki Taka football".

Shut.Thefuck.Up.

 

[Hansern]

We bought the wrong Roma midfielder, thats for sure. Love De Rossi!

 

[Modo]

Nausea setting in...

This is going in

Damn close.

 

[Modo]

Love the Xabster

 

[dave2]

Damn close.

Not really.

I don't think any country deserves a team like Ingerlund. It's the sheer stupidity that grates. There are loads of quite clever people in England, but sheesh what a team!

 

[Modo]

Not really.

The bounce made it look a bit dangerous

Looks like he's taking a shit standing.

Well, to be fair hardly any of today's professional footballers strike me as candidates for the Nobel prize.

Let alone 11 from one country.

 

[livvy145]

Italy are doing quite well

 

[mark1975]

Just to undo what Ballague was saying, right now they lack a focal point. Great run by Iniesta, but there's no real outlet, they've got in the box a few times but there's no one ahead of the play for the follow up or to get in behind.

 

[mark1975]

Good play there by Cassano and Balotelli was unlucky not to get a tap in.

Exactly. tubleweed rolls past.

No, but on the field players who normally for their own clubs can seem bright and inventive seem reduced to neanderthal status for England. It's the sheer witlessness that's shocking. Every two years the ad goes out: 'We're THAT thick!'

 

[Holle]

I'll hazard a guess that we'll see Llorente start in the 2nd half.

 

[mark1975]

Speaking of brainless players, Balotelli is so frustrating to watch at times.

 

[RedZeppelin III]

fuck off with the stupid mexican wave !

 

[Modo]

Sissoko esque at times

 

[Holle]

Hahaha!

 

[Holle]

Cassano and Balotelli have to be the craziest striker pairing ever.

 

[Modo]

I miss Xabster sooooooooooo much. World class.

 

[Modo]

Chielini isnt playing around. Crunching tackle at every opportunity.

 

[OLD_Lewy]

spain really should have a striker in the box

 

[Modo]

David Villa would've probably scored by now.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

Italians have been far better than I thought they'd be against Spain. They really should get out of this group.

 

[Hansern]

Will be a bit different when they have to be the attacking side though, they've always been good at defending and counter attacking.
