Final: Italy vs England
- Thread starter ivaldo
- Start date
No, it's been the best he has played all tournament!
Haven’t seen any evidence of that so far
we’ve shut them out of the game. 1-0 will do the job
Weren't all their goals corners headed in by Charisteas?
absolute bitter bollocks.Italy will probably score.
If they do it will 'probably' go to extra time. Thats assuming they dont grab two (obviously). But usually these games in the final are too close and are decided by ET / Penalties

It’s definitely a moving tune.
Not even remotely similar, don’t be ridiculous.
Things to improve for England in the second half.
- Better decision making from Sterling. Think he's better off just taking on the CBs rather than trying a square ball with how many the Italians get back behind the ball.
- Walker needs to stop giving it away.
- Mount looks half a yard off the pace at the moment but otherwise no major concerns with him. Another foul and he'll be carded though.

Yeah, I forgot that I blame the beer. I was sweating at that.maguire kicked out a back pass for a corner and you were thinking 'geez, there's nerves there' and then that happens straight after
They weren't that bad...
Worst take of all tournament
This should easily be 3-0 if Mount and Sterling haven't been crap
We're more like Chelsea, very good in the right circumstances but often a disaster
What's the feckin difference?
Me too my man… me too
Hard to believe Maguire passing it out of the corner happened about 50 seconds before that. Just got caught up upfield and quick England turnover from clearing corner.
Mount again has underwhelmed.
He just seems to run around a lot.

They’ve been terrified of Kane, when he gets it there’s 2 or 3 on him. It’s the benefit of having a 9 who could also realistically be a top number 10 as well
WUM as per usual.Sub Mount off, bring Sancho on and it is another goal for England.
Put Sancho and Rashfrod on, let United win it for England. Easy 3-0.
To be fair, they didn’t win that corner haha.
As much as it pains me, England fully deserve that lead. For all of Italy's possession, they've created next to nothing. They need to step it up big time or they've got no chance.
Imagine Fernandes in this England team
I'm surprised I'm reading sentiments like it's not a good game? This seems so damn fast. Does not feel like an international game. It's great.
Makes me shart, anyway.
Just shows how these guys are all human beings at the highest level. And nerves were obviously on both sides, no matter how much players try to 'hide' itmaguire kicked out a back pass for a corner and you were thinking 'geez, there's nerves there' and then that happens straight after
Gabby Logan looking
Klinsmann, one of the few neutrals that doesn't utterly despise England with a passion.
But seriously, is there any non-English caftards supporting England tonight? There has to be one of you out there

Good shout. I’ve been likening them to Hodgson’ Palace. Defend deep and cross your fingers that one of Zaha/Townsend/other pacy player can do something on the counter.
What?
Aye. Worked ok defensively, but in the attacking areas he's left a lot to be desired again.
Congratulations, England. Can't see Italy turn it arround, and the second goal is coming in the first 15 minutes of the second half.
Nice jinx
Must admit while many are perplexed England are actually in a final, I'm more amazed how good the game management is and composure in key areas, never seen England team as good at the basics for a long time. Something you just think other national teams are so much better at but not this tournament.
Just as long as we don't go to ET please more of the same.
It was obviously nervy from Maguire, but he did pass it to the exact area Pickford should have been in.
