June 14, 201610 yr Kyle Walker to be kicked out of England's Euro 2016 squad after committing international incident: Bloody hell, the shame, socks AND flip flops.
June 14, 201610 yr Have to say Italy were superb. Game management was excellent. The tactical fouling in particular was used everytime Belgium looked dangerous on the counter. Hope Conte brings that with him. Can't think how many times I yelled at the TV last season for one of our players to foul on a break which has then resulted in a goal because they didn't. On another note Chiellini was excellent. So calm and composed, proper defender. The talk will be about Bonucci's pass but Chiellini was the rock for Italy.

June 14, 201610 yr look at how high up the wingbacks are for italy in the first half. two central defenders in the opposing half. the belgium back four are basically playing 1v1 with hazard and de bruyne having the problem of either following them (leaving 2 against 4 italian defensive players including de rossi) or keeping their shape. then the two holding players look very flat and are being drawn outwards by the italian midfielders (both on the outside of them) allowing direct passes from the defending players to the strikers. belgium look like they are in a very prescriptive 4231 and it certainly didn't look like wilmots had taken into account how italy would set up. I thought maybe we'd see long balls to fellaini given a) lukaku was struggling to hold it up, and b) fellaini was directly against de rossi, but I can only recall one instance of it.
June 14, 201610 yr Belgium promise so much but are as disappointing as England usually are. So many good individuals but most of them were poor last night. Shouldn't judge on one performance but I really don't want us to be linked with Lukaku if last night was anything to go by. I was gutted we let him go but last night perhaps explains why - as good as he can be in some games, when big games come along he looks out of his depth. And the midfielder with the ghastly tattoos and stupid hair-cut. Please tell me we aren't seriously being linked with him.
June 14, 201610 yr After watching those clips of Jochim Loew touching his bum/front and sniffing his fingers afterwards, Makes having Woy as manager feel a bit better.

June 14, 201610 yr What happens with the 'best third placed team' stuff for the next round if Russia get the boot from the tournament?
June 14, 201610 yr Gareth Bale certainly likes to talk doesn't he?! He should probably just shut up and concentrate on playing football.
June 14, 201610 yr Yeah, imagine if the England camp started going on like that. "Arrogant English" "Anyone but England".
June 14, 201610 yr I don't think a team with Simon Church in it is really worth the breath of attempting mind games. Their two backup keepers hardly inspire confidence either - one got relegated from the Football League two seasons ago and the other can't get into a squad which has Adam Bogdan in it.

June 14, 201610 yr Whatever happened to that Ivanschitz guy who was supposed to be the Austrian Beckham about ten years ago? Also does anyone else find it hilarious that Gabor Kiraly and Zoltan Gera are playing at an international tournament in 2016?
June 14, 201610 yr Vladislav Zhukov (Russian MP) - "If England fans don't want to get beaten up they shouldn't go to football matches. They are babies." #ENG "Black fans and gays cannot be guaranteed safety at the 2018 Russia World Cup but that is their problem not ours". Disgusting comments. That country has serious issues. More fool to the morons who voted to award them the privilege of hosting a World Cup. Stinks. Maybe the answer is to have Jeffrey Webb and Jack Warner walk across Red Square holding hands ? If they make it from one side to the other, then Russia keeps the 2018 World Cup :)
June 14, 201610 yr Great commentary there - reciting facts from the same Guardian article everybody read before the game.
June 14, 201610 yr Although it has just occurred to me that Dowie would have been Kiraly's manager that season that Palace went down on the last day of the season (thanks to Charlton - as my Charlton-supporting mate never ceases to delight in reminding me of).
June 14, 201610 yr After watching those clips of Jochim Loew touching his bum/front and sniffing his fingers afterwards, Makes having Woy as manager feel a bit better. I read on another forum, he was 'caught' scratching his arse and eating it at another tournament.
June 14, 201610 yr I don't really care who wins the "Habsburg" match, but for Undertow's sake I will support Hungary.
June 14, 201610 yr I read on another forum, he was 'caught' scratching his arse and eating it at another tournament. There's one video where he sticks his right hand into the front portion of his trousers, Gives it a nice feel and then sticks his hands up to his nose, Both of these incidents were spotted by Norwegian tv against Ukraine who had a camera solely focused on the disgusting t-wat. I can tolerate a good old fashioned nose pick, I can even let go a little taste but to be touching other areas of your body whilst you're a manager of football team is beyond weird.
