Ireland

Tough start for Ireland and they're ****ed now of course. Good side though Croatia. Obviously we mullered them when qualifying for the 2010 world cup but they looked to have stepped up a bit. They look handy up front with Jelavic and Mandzukic. I think they'll cause both Spain and Italy problems. Spain could fail to get out of that one yet because the Italians looked a very well organised and well drilled tactically.
