***Official England v Italy Thread***

Cheers fella's.

Thiery Henry says it all with his face, blaming the Rooney miss. What he was really saying is that Rooney was a waste and we could've won without him on the pitch.

Now we're onto Gerrard. You can blag it all you want but you and you're mate shouldn't be on the pitch. You're not to blame though, you and Wiggy shouldn't have been there, you just can't play in an organised manner. Organisation is the basics, you couldn't even get that.

Gutted. Really deflated. So frustrating. We actually played quite well and had the chances to win that. Some of our play was lovely and sterling and barkley look very promising. Rooney can just Fuck off. If he played half as well as he did for rags our chances would be massively increased but he doesn't . So annoyed, should have got something.

thing is playing in that kind of heat, i do think that the more a player's game relies on athleticism the more problematic the heat will be to your game, i.e. cramping.

also, when you are having to come back and run harder more often that will affect your chance to get cramps. italy did not have to do that nor did they use their athleticism after they took the lead with ballo's goal. they saved energy while england had to chase the game.

Wha-eyyyy, should we not play Rooney at all. Lineker asks the question, at last.

Seems like Rooney is becoming our Darius Vassell, he very much reminds me of him.

michael ballack calling out gerrard for not being the pirlo he thinks he should be for england.

he isn't at all biased is he?

Barkley for rooney please.

England played shit. If you call endless runs at defenders with no end product or shit long shots good... sterling was good but other than that. Sturridge got lucky with his goal but was a greedy cunt too. Barkley ran around like a chicken when he came on and llana and wilshere were even worse.

That's not even including how shit shrek, Gerrard and Johnson were, o wait.

Thank fuck I seen this post. I used to see you as a bit of a joke but now I can just shake you off without any reaction at all.

Are you Rag Hater in disguise?

Here's Roy, come to apologise to us for playing Rooney and Gerrard.

[Beefymcfc]

Why can't the Beeb say it how it is, why are they going around the houses?

Too many 'umms' and 'ehhhhs' for me.

Once again, asking about Rooney but blaming it on his position.

[Beefymcfc]

Fuck sake Roy, shut the fuck up. Please.

Considering how shit Rooney has been in the warm-up matches and again today (his cross for the goal excepted) there must be some kind of pressure on Hodgson to select him, ie from The FA. Edit: maybe not, just saw Hodgson say with a straight face how well Rooney did. I think he needs to watch some tapes of the set pieces again.

I couldn't give a fuck, I give zero shits about England. Especially when players are picked based on their club and marketing value. England are shit and haven been shit for 10 years. Watching runs is entertaining but when you see it for the 20th time and see them lose the ball, it gets laughable.

How am I rag hater, you equate with hating England to hating city? Fuck off you soft cunt.

I don't think Hodgson has a choice, he submits it to a committee and they have the ultimate say. From his face tonight, it said it all.

Then don't watch England or comment on the thread if you give 'zero shits'. Simple.

Oh well, time to get my car jokes warmed up since Japan are playing soon. (Assuming Honda is selected and uninjured)

I was watching Italy actually. Bet you were pleased with your man shrek though.

Ha ha ha, you left the part about England being shit but added the the part of having zero interest. So why answer, why be on this thread, you have no interest whatsoever?

Like City a few years back, we knew we were shit; does that mean I walk away, calling them shit for 10 years and worry about their 20th time?

Soft cunt, never. A little touchy, you can bet your arse.

[Bridge'srightfoot]

It was one of the best England performances I've seen in a long time and you could actually tell the players really cared. We should have a got a point tonight and went toe to toe with a very good technical side. We just didn't have that final ball.

I'm confident we can beat Uruguay and by some margin too. They are really poor. Then it's all to play for in the last game.
Barkley must start, he's so promising and really does have that spark that you need.

Oh really? Didn't see you comment about Italy, you're post was all about England. Pretty strange that considering you were 'watching Italy'.
No he was poor.
So you're English and supporting and cheering on Italy? Fuck off. No doubt you'll celebrate with the rest of us on the off chance we do well.
