________________________________________

I hope Andy Carroll starts for England, hopefully we can keep Balotelli out of the game, and Pirlo for that matter.

Prediction: 2-1 England AET.

If we want anything out of this game than we will need to keep a very close eye on Pirlo, he is a real talent that we need to be wary of.

Possibly their only dangerous player besides that ruffian Balotelli.

Only danger Balotelli will pose, will be to his own team.

I wonder if the Italians will attempt to fix this match? Either way it should be fun Their diving lessons in training might pay off when our midfield dominates theirs.

Chamberlain to dominate Pirlo and Ambrosini

Balotelli to win it for Italy.

will be really easy for us

this game has brought the beast himself back from the wilderness.

It really really won't Your delusional state is seems to be quite uncontrollable at the moment. Your team is full of ugly divers and your only source of goals Mr. If-I-don't-get-my-own-way Balotelli is like a baby in a pram.

England will simply take the extreme Italian tactic of parking the bus and will eventually score on the break or from a set piece. Which shouldn't be too difficult considering how bad Italy are at defending them. This is going to be an enjoyable win for my dear nation. Poor little Italy

Good game to start Andy Carroll in.

Mauro would be SEETHING if we did them.

Italy playing 3 or 4 at the back without Chiellini?

I hope Carroll scores, and England go through.

I just want to see us go through, I don't care how or by what score. As long as we go through.

I think it will be a similar game to when the French dominated us at Wembley.

Thiago Motta a doubt, hopefully Nocerino plays.

Wtf, Italy has a great midfield, Marchisio, Pirlo, De Rossi. Will Absolutely dominate Englands

Nocerino is a much better player anyway. More deserving to face England's midfield. Won't get dominated as much.

This, surprising to see the majority writing off Italy

Yeah dont forget how well Italy played against Spain. Their midfield is good and I think they'll win.

Cassano and Di Natale are both great forwards, too.

I wish Chiellini was healthy, though.

Mauro must of hurt them greatly.

Italy have scored 4 goals all from different players, and Balotelli is the only source of goals?

Some thinly veiled trolling going on in here.

Thanks for biting, Sean. I can rest in peace now.

I'm proud to say this:

For the last 2 weeks I have been hated at school, many of my friends have ignored me and refuse to talk to me. Why? Because I am supporting England in the Euro's, and as us Scots folk are supposed to hate England, many of my friends disagree with who I support. Now don't get me wrong, I know all about England and Scotland's past and understand there is bad blood between the 2 countries, but it's like I said to my friend (who is supporting Germany), "You'd rather support a Country who tried to bomb us, take us over and took millions of innocent lives, than our closes geographical neighbours, who we are connected with, who we share the same Queen and thousands of other things with?"

This may have seemed like a pointless, irrelevant post, but I wish the best of luck to England and hope they go on to win the Euro's!

Don't think most of the are serious. They just want to get under Mauro's skin by acting like, well like Mauro.

At least lets hope that's the case.

Damn you Jord, damn you to hell

Seems like there's a lot of stress about this game.
