Spain have now kept eight successive clean sheets in major tournament knockout games

People were saying how much of a attacking manager he is but wtf was that team he put out?

A right back playing as a right sided attacking midfielder?

Florent Malouda in the centre?


just totally bottled it beyond belief.

And this after he slated England for their negative tactics against France and even said he would never play that way!
Dropping Nasri?

 

[Leeds Spur]

Bet France are happy they tied Blanc to a new deal!!

 

[Rossi22]

Pedro is so good and unbelievably underrated.

 

[Jurgen the German]

I wish a team would have the balls to go for it against Spain. Parking the bus doesn't work 9 times out of 10

Is that confirmed? good i didn't want managing us at all (probably even more than AVB and trust me when i say i don't want him).

 

[Leeds Spur]

Teams become paralysed. They are scared to attack for fear of the counter but conceding territory just plays into their hands.

734 - Xavi has made more successful passes in Euro Finals history, overtaking Zinedine Zidane (707) tonight.

Not sure, thought I'd heard French journos scotching the rumour by saying he was signing a new deal.

 

[Rossi22]

Hope so.

Spain's sixth consecutive 1-0 win in a tournament knock out match.

Spain's sixth consecutive 1-0 win in a tournament knock out match.

They won 2-0

I've noticed that Balotelli and Di Natale are always together in training and Di Natale was one of the few players who went to congratulate Balotelli after the Ireland game and seem quite close. If I was Prandelli, I'd start the two of them up front tomorrow night.

 

[Jordinho]

They won 2-0

I was asleep by then.

 

[Mumorn]

Balotelli and Cassano are best friends (quite amazing really considering what the two are like). I'd say that might of been why those two started up top the first two games

 

[Leeds Spur]

Gonna put a ton on Italy. We are sooooo fecking average!!!

 

[funster]

I just had a look at the odds Leeds.

England win - 15/8
Draw - 15/8
Italy win.....

Go on.....

Have a guess.....

Yeap.....

Italy win - 15/8!!!!!

Talk about bookies hedging their bets.

 

[Leeds Spur]

Italy are evens or there about to qualify.
