Euro 2016 Group E - Belgium, Ireland, Italy, Sweden

[Robspur12]

Chelsea will be a joy to watch next season.

Basically no different to mourinho in terms of cynical play.

Oh dear, never thought of that. Italy is the international side version of Chelski already, the chavs will probably take it to a whole new level then.

 

[Robspur12]

I usually have a flutter on the italians. backed them for about 40 years in WC and Euros

They are like the Germans quietly effective. Except when it comes to warfare.

Put a mustache on Cortois, and he looks exactly like the stupid police man in Allò Allò

 

[Kandi1977]

Origi, how did you miss that!

You know he's a Liverpool player, right?

 

[Robbo]

Fellaini, oh dear.

 

[Robbo]

You know he's a Liverpool player, right?

Yep. After last WC i wanted us to sign him, thank fook I'm not in charge of transfers at Spurs!

 

[Robbo]

What a way to put the ball into the empty net.

 

[Robbo]

Fantastic technique for that finish. Absolutely brilliant.

 

[Kandi1977]

Got to admit it, the Italians are the masters of defending a 1-0 lead. They could have held on for a week if necessary.

 

[Robspur12]

OMG wilmotts you're getting sacked in the morning. Can't remember a Belgian shot on target. 2-0 Italy deserve it.

 

[Robspur12]

They are basically Leicester.

Italians doing what they do best, Catenaccio. Belgian hearts breaking, but we get Jan, Toby, Wimmer and the Moussa back early ! Great for pre-season. Now, for the others

 

[JerusalemMan]

Well, no Dembele.
Too many players doing their own selfish little thing rather than trying to cohere.

 

[indianspur]

I enjoyed watching Italy tbh.

Belgium bottled it again.

Conte is a winner. Shows in his teams.

 

[Baleforce]

I thought Italy were absolutely magnificent, powerful, patient, professional, a joy to watch.

He is well schooled in the Italian system of play for sure. But Belgium were well below par I'll wait and see how Conte's team fare in the rest of the tournament before drawing further conclusions.

 

[parklane1]

Every time i see Lukaku i think what a brick player he is, got a touch like a elephant.

 

[Rorschach]

Dembele should have been on the pitch.

 

[indospurs]

Dembele should have been on the pitch.

do you think the coach would know how to use him and shape the team ?
