Well it started well with sterling blazing just wide then henderson forcing a great save out of the italy keeper then it started going tits up pirlo running the show candavera down thier right leaving Wazzer for dead wayne aint a left mid he aint quick why play him out of position but the main reason we lost is our defence is as good as moyes was manager of man utd

It was a much better performance than in recent tournaments at least. Can still see us going through, Uruguay looked very average against Costs Rica.

England vs Italy was probably the most tense game so far and Danial sturrige played well but a lot of his shots were off target and Rooney and Gerard played pretty shit tbh. Ballotelli had a pretty decent goal which joe hart was never going to save. funiiest bit is when the physio dislocated his ankle by celebrating srturridges goal to hard hahaha but sterling was definitely man of the match

the physio with the ankle was absolutely fukkin priceless, but the game just shows how far england have to go, just look at how awkward england looked moving the ball around compared to england. still looked dangerous at times maybe having not much pressure on them will be good in this tournament we'll see

I think a draw would have been a fair result. I'm not a fan of rooney, but if your gonna play him it has has to be central. The physio getting injured was classic.

I don't know about you guys, but I find it just depressing that we actually played really well I thought... much better than Italy, but we still somehow lost... Still fingers crossed for Uruguay right?
