World Cup thread

****ing hell, is Phil Neville battling a vicodin addiction or something? He makes Alan Shearer seem as charasmatic as Little Richard in comparison.

Twitter rumours are saying he's broken his ankle

Cheers for the tip

I've always wondered why they don't offer a commentary-free service on the red button. I'd use it to escape Clive 'Meatloaf' Tyldesley.

As a welshman with Italian heritage, i wonder who i'll be supporting tonight...

Being Welsh during a World Cup must feel a lot like how is it to be a Spud, watching from the sidelines whilst the other teams compete in the biggest competition.

I think it's only the BBC that offer an interactive service during football matches so you'll to use the mute button during games on ITV

Doesn't really bother me, i just normally support all of our (Arsenal) players, irregardless of their nationalities.

Just watch a foreign stream. Got the BBC feed, but then i've got Italian coverage too for when Phil Neville bores me too much.

Super Mario makes it 2-1 to Italy

 

[Arsenal87]

Let's get Balotelli, get Campbell, and that's some lethal attackers added.

 

[cini65]

My god, we're playing quite well for once but we really can't get any shots on target can we?!

 

[Arsenal87]

England will never win anything, they lack technicality, they're never going to win anything on passion and drive, England are basically the Everton of international football.

 

[Lee263]

Well Wilshere was crap, just ran into their defenders constantly.

Rooney was a colossal disappointment as always (goal aside).

Or the Arsenal. Hey ho.

 

[Arsenal87]

Wilshere summed it up quite well a while back as for why England won't win when he went on about WE'RE ENGLAND, not Spain who like to play pretty football.

This mentality of WE'RE ENGERLANDDDDD ain't never going to win jack ****. Just look at the class and masterpiece that was Pirlo.

 

[Arsenal87]

Or the Arsenal. Hey ho.

Arsenal are very technical, but the problem is we often lack the hard stuff and never say die defending attitude.

 

[Lee263]

Ok, chilled a bit now. I enjoyed the game, lots of positives, lots of good attacking football. Defo a team for the future.

The attacking football was quite average, in the second half the only real chance was by Rooney, nothing else apart from a free kick here and there.

If England want to succeed, they need to beat the Italians at their own game in the future. They need to grow amazing beards. It's worked for Italy
