England v Italy 2300BST

Yeah, The conditions are playing a massive part, either we play the game to score one more than them or tighten up, that is the Manager's call....Personally I'd like to see us keep attacking.

 

Shuffle the three around. Welbeck on the left.

 

I certainly wouldn't throw Luke into this one.

 

Think we have more pressing issues in the middle of the park.

 

We thinking it was right to leave Adam out then?

 

Both full backs are the weak links.

 

No way, their right flank is the main issue for us.

 

So far, you would have to say yes. Welbeck and Sterling have been excellent.

 

Not sure. His defensive contributions last season were better than any of the three out there.

 

Yeah I think so , but he will be a great impact sub when the game gets stretched in the last 20 minutes

 

Could see Lallana fixing that hole on the left?

 

And most balls played out there have come from Pirlo.... in the middle.

 

Hee-hee. Only Lineker would find the opportunity to ask Henry if he has ever got away with a handball.

 

The more I see of Johnson the more I wonder what he is doing there. Baines has been neither spectacular going forward or defensively.

 

Rooney moved to the right, welbeck on the left

 

Oh, for pete's sake, come back Lawro, all is forgiven.

2-1 Italy

 

Ooooh Sturridge. Far and away the best forward we have (sorry Rickie)

 

What was I saying about baines?

 

Get Lambert on !

 

Hey not bad, Rooney.
