I want to see them bleed tonight for the country!
Come on England!
Come on England!
Final: Italy vs England
- Thread starter ivaldo
- Start date
I hope we're not going to be as defensive as I fear we will be. I want to se Sancho play as he's got the gift and brains to get through their defence.
As much as I believe we can win, Italy have been my favourites since their first game of the tournament. I just feel like there's something about them. But then there's something about us too! I just hope we use the atmosphere to our advantage, and it doesn't end up weighing us down.

I used to support England against almost any other team in the world, but today I really hope Italy has was it takes to beat them properly.
This hole, booing during national anthems, harrassing other fans, including children, this aggressive approach to supporting your team, and the diving in the penalty area is awfull.
England used to be a lot more likeable.

Southgate doesn't rate Sancho. He is 3rd choice.
Which is why I’d bring him on at the hour mark or so and target those tired legs.
Got a hunch for England now.
Feels like one of those written days in football, Argentina end their 28 year trophy drought early in the morning and England will do it on same day.

Will be in my view the toughest test England have faced this tournament, not just because it’s Italy and the way they have shown themselves to be a force this tournament but because it’s a final and they will be up for it just as much as England. Here’s hoping for a fascinating game.
Who misses out then, Saka? As him, Mount and Sterling all can't squeeze into 3-4-3 unless Mount is part of middle two and that's too bold for Southgate to do in major final.

You would think Saka. Not sure I like team news being about this early.

It'll definitely be a back 3 to match up to them.

Back to the side that beat Germany is what I expect, I'd personally play Sancho and Henderson over Rice and Saka, but don't expect Southgate to do the same.

Mount out then it'd be the same starting XI that played against Germany. Personally think if it is 343 then both Mount and Saka should be dropped as neither have done enough. Both provide a nice balance in a front 4 but not enough end product in a front 3. Kane, Sterling and Sancho/Grealish in the front 3.
Not sure other countries would be reporting this with such pride.

Such a weird stance.
Looks like he's holding one in.
To be fair pens aren't solely down to the GK
Our first real test of the tournament, I hope we can come through it!
Cannot unsee...Booing anthems was standard across most grounds this tournament, including the fans of the holy saints Italy. You don’t have to dig very deep to find dickead fans from every country, the vast majority are decent people who just want to support their team. A few overblown media reports and some vile messages on that cesspool that is Twitter really has fuelled this anti-England fire.
Brain said England, Heart said Italy.
England haven't get into 4th gear and Italy push themselves very hard in the semi final. Should it comes down to PK shootout, England got slight edge as they will study Italy shootout in the semi final.

Veratti has me worried.
people looking to be offended will also find a way.
Any rumours regarding line up doing the rounds yet?
Ant up front, Dec in midfield?
Finally
Every country has idiot fans. Why are England being singled out. Italian fans are saints aren't they. Do you not remember when we played Roma? They also boo national anthems, throw bananas on the pitch and do monkey chants, so lets have a bit of perspective here.
Posted this in the wrong thread..........
I think he's going to stick with the safety first and throw the flair players on if wee go a goal down.
Italy don't have much up top that I don't think we can deal with, Insigne and Verrati are the key for Italy.

Don't like diving, yet you're supporting Italy in this game?
We were hated just as much when we were shit so I'm not going to lose any sleep over us getting even more when we finally reach a final.
Germany was definitely a test.. Croatia and the semi too
