Englands pitch

[Flyer]

I don't agree, unlike the Spain\Netherlands game where a draw would suit both sides, I think both Italy and us need to have a go and get a result, don't want to be relying on beating Uruguay or goal difference to get out of the group.

Wed be delighted with a draw, that means the others have to beat us or Italy. The likelihood is that Uruguay will lose to Italy meaning a draw with Uruguay sees us through if we beat CR.

A draw would suit both then, no?

Italy are a shadow of the side that put us out last time, I think Hodgson needs to be bold and play Sterling from the off and look at bringing Barkley in at some point, if we pressure them they'll crack...
